Welcome to Daily Africa Disko
At Daily Africa Disko, we believe that Africa’s stories deserve to be told with depth, dignity, and urgency. Founded in Cape Town, South Africa, our platform is dedicated to bringing you the most timely, accurate, and insightful news from across the African continent—every single day.
What We Do
Our mission is simple: to be your trusted source for African current events. Whether it’s breaking political developments, economic shifts, cultural movements, or human-interest stories that often go unnoticed, we bring you the facts you need, delivered with context and care. We don’t just report the news—we help you understand it.

From Lagos to Luanda, from Nairobi to Nampula, we cover the full spectrum of African life:
- Politics and governance
- Economic trends and business innovation
- Culture, arts, and heritage
- Technology and social change
- Environmental issues and sustainability
- Human rights and community stories
About the Creator
Daily Africa Disko was founded by Eliana Somerset, a South African journalist and storyteller with over a decade of experience reporting across the continent. Born and raised in Cape Town, Eliana has worked with regional broadcasters, independent media outlets, and international news agencies. She created Daily Africa Disko out of a frustration with fragmented coverage and a desire to build a space where African voices lead the narrative.
Why This Website Exists
Too often, African news is filtered through external lenses—or ignored entirely. We exist to change that. Daily Africa Disko was born from the belief that Africans should be the primary narrators of their own realities. Our team works tirelessly to amplify local perspectives, challenge stereotypes, and provide context that mainstream outlets often miss.
Our Values
We are committed to:
- Accuracy — Every story is fact-checked and sourced with integrity
- Independence — We are free from corporate or political influence
- Representation — We prioritize voices from underrepresented regions and communities
- Clarity — Complex issues are explained in accessible, thoughtful language
