But now has caused a sensation by becoming the 1st colombian to win the tour de pro well have more on the town he grew up in. Fellow im terry martin welcome to the program for attack by boko haram militants has left 65 people dead in nigeria the attack took place in a village in borno state in the northeast of the country the victims were attending a funeral when they were gunned down by a gang of militants in vans and riding motorbikes. Or more now im joined by d. W. Correspondent neko whos in lagos what can you tell us about this attack. Well as you said. We were attacked at a funeral on saturday in the village and at my degree thats the capital of borno state and we dont know very much about the attack at the moment but what we heard from local vigilante groups who were speaking to News Agencies is that several people were attacked at the funeral itself and others were were attacked while chasing down the militants who had attacked the funeral but in the last few months and weeks especially weve had a couple of attacks by so they have been on a regular basis and last just last week there were 6 aid workers from action against hunger who were kidnapped by a Splinter Group of boko haram they released a video last week pleading for pleading for their for the help of the government and the aid organizations and there was also an attack on an id peace camp a refugee camp in my degree where 2 people were killed. Nigerias borno state is the epicenter of the. Insurgency the Nigerian Government has had only limited success dealing with it all i ask you a bit more about solar in a moment but 1st lets have a look at this report. Around 12000 displaced people live in this makeshift camp it opened just 4 months ago in my degree in the northeast of nigeria. Since the start of the year more than 100000 people have been forced from their homes fleeing the violence of boko haram. Fatima said 5 years ago with her husband and 2 children. Like it now im in gods hands if peace is restored one day and im told i can go back home and go back to i think its immediately the time goes by and the situation isnt changing so theres no way i can go home and. Over the past 10 years boko haram has attacks have displaced nearly 2000000 people despite International Aid supplies are scarce and shelter is precarious. The government is encouraging people to return home as soon as the security allows abraham tried to go home last year after 3 months there he had to come back to my degree. I just heard that my lab is in the rigs and my children. Because no quality education a lot of stuff is you know no no no no no its true much so you have to go on but. While he continues to wait for the situation to improve hes living in a friends room. Is where we live so we do well from what my wife and 40 great im just a come little in the cage. Yeah because you are sharing it all from when youre 6 is really easy. Around my degree the boko haram attacks continue 10 years of violence has left 27000 people dead. So as weve just seen this conflict is taking a heavy toll on nigeria why is the government why has the government failed so far in its effort to defeat. Well as you said the conflict has been going on for about 10 years 10 years exactly actually in july 2009 when declared war on the Nigerian Government and they have especially been targeting local civilian populations because they declared war on any western values school for example and we remember that there was in 2014 for example. There was the kidnapping of the chibok girls over 270 girls who were kidnapped by militants from their school and only half of them have been returned so the government has both difficulties in keeping. The insurgency so the talks under control but also in negotiating with the militants that they can they can actually return people have been kidnapped and who have been affected by the crisis and both the current government under president bill harry and Goodluck Jonathan have not managed to make much of a change in the us. And yes thats so that. And local populations have blamed the government. The government says that they have that things are improving things are under control so yeah ok im just wondering about the strategy here in trying to defeat because again weve seen tens of thousands of people dead. Tens of thousands displaced to how much support is nigeria getting from neighboring countries who are also dealing with. Well they are getting quite a bit of support they have theres a Multi Joint Task force with nigeria charged. Cameroon and guinea in. 10000 troops strong actually and they have been trying to keep the insurgency under control and they have what they have managed to do is keep it mainly in nigeria although there have been attacks in neighboring countries in asia air and cameroon once in a while and and obviously the neighboring countries have also been having to deal with the refugee populations that have been crossing the border into their countries so they there is some effort there theres also support from from the u. S. From the e. U. And but as with many terror groups these are often attacks carried out by suicide bombers which which have and which are difficult to keep under control and. So thank you so much. There.

Charbonneau and her classmates have been walking for an hour and a half already their route to school involves negotiating a rough and Steep Mountain of spats but its the only school in the area doesnt that mean that i have to walk a long way every morning but i know how lucky we are out in the country there are a lot of children who have no chance of going to school. That its the end of the school year and theyre taking their exams the boys and girls are outside so no one can copy from anyone else the classrooms are far too small so how many are going to pass the exams so. Im sure that they are all going to pass their exams. But. The pass rates are high here although the standards are no lower than elsewhere and theyve been achieved in a school a long way from any large cities and surrounded by mountains its a place where getting an education leading to a good job might seem a distant dream the younger students can stay inside to escape the heat theres no electricity here no heating in winter no photocopier and they can only dream of computers so hard and 90 percent of students here make it to college.

Well as mentioned earlier a police in hong kong clashed again with demonstrators over the weekend using tear gas and rubber bullets to quell the uprising the protesters have been demonstrating for weeks now over a growing influence from Mainland China d. W. Mathias berlinger is in hong kong and joins us now mathias where do things stand now after those intense clashes between police and protesters over the weekend. If you can just this morning. That anything happened yesterday. There was more. Up and. Just you know. They were decent so that was pretty quickly but the this is. Our. Vision. Getting. Action yes 2 days a week and in the last week and then the people these actions by the. Significant. Access to. These narrow streets were. Just. Next to. This video footage now complete. Access. By the police the protesters themselves they. Have ramped up also there that theyre willing to use force some of them went to the demonstration yesterday carrying drugs for example so we are seeing tensions rise out although today everything looks calm goes on to life is the big conflict side. But just remind us again what these protests are about what are the demonstrators demanding and is there any chance that their demands will be met. Originally this was about the law project that the government posts were sitting there which allows extradition to of criminal suspects to Mainland China now that these protests have been growing weeks its about much more its 1st of all well this project is still somehow an issue we do think of a shelter but not true but since then the Police Brutality has really got to come to the center of the protesters 2 months they demand an investigation of Police Actions throughout this this summer and the longer. It goes on the more. The system is getting into focus of attention because the government has not been able to react to this crisis adequately chief executive currently has almost not been seen throughout all these weeks yet out of a few press conferences where she has not said much except that shes not going to step down she announces violence by the protesters but theres no plan how to get out of this is pretty clear that the government does not know what to do they rely on the police to solve this conflict but its not a conflict the police because of the fact that hes not going to be speaking of political approach in prescott just chinas top policy body on hong kong is due to hold a rare press briefing in about an. Hour from now until what can we expect there. Well thats a question many people themselves this body never has press conferences its the 1st time that with talk about something going on in hong kong of course the expectation is that they might take a tough line and that might call the police on. My team on for tougher action. On protesters but we have no idea what this might be exactly what it would be. That the Central Government taking action what would you want to do something but just to explain. About how she sees these constantly switching houses said. Sometimes they see this as something that was organized by dark forces pointing to america so whether theyre just going to. The state this or whether they are going to announce something is hopeless but people here im very curious to know the. Details thank you very much for bringing us up to date there. In hong kong.
