We are just over 50 licensed drivers International Rally championship. Almost exclusively men but the phrase 1111 ranks among the best. All when i had just gotten little did they know that these so of course i was young by then and that this young lady it would come up to challenge men everybody despised me and that is that lady the speeds. Whatever are over. Mistakes in the National Championship are high and susan more often gets nervous when her rivals are on the truck i. Become. Yes. But let our own when you get to the tat when i get to the stats and i drop all they feel. It is not easy. Taco driver knows how to give one a boast when the competition is stiff. So i also tend to be more in such a moment when she feels likely to be depressed that the guys are faster than half and there is still not. No we are fussed. The Team Strategy seems to be playing golf when she says this super lady shes known to have funds can be an catchable. In 20 living longer surprised many when she won uganda as National Championship. She wanted to give last year the only african room and if a torch of such racing success shes so cool now and the inspiring story we brought you was fun kenyas capital nairobi a way some brave women are taking their safety into their own hands yes to east africa correspondent melanie grew out of the group of grannies you dont want to mess with. Just a few years ago this place was known as nairobis most dangerous president s in korogocho lived in constant fear especially elderly women like the 65 year old harry. He would hear screams all the time women were attacked by boys who had come to rape them. The grannies of coral gotto as they call themselves were regularly targeted superstitions of tech has been achieved the women were free and that sex with them could cure the only action almost daily one of those numbers older women were sexually assaulted raped on that it. Was created on 11 day we found dead with broken bottles inside her body when we carried her body to the police but they closed the gates and didnt let a sin to get up on his part we took her body to the mortuary sisters religion and with it and on that day we decided enough is enough and we women will start helping ourselves on the plane to decide to do. In a force like korogocho that only women have had to bear the brunt of society so neglect and crime it is in this very community that many of them have been assaulted often sexually deemed as easy targets it is in here that they fight to take safety into their own hands. Running decides to fight back and others who have the same. Grannies while between 65 and 90 years old meet once a week. And defend themselves. And when im walking down the street and an attacker approaches this is how i fight. And im proud to say that im a strong elderly woman. It is with this pride and dedication that they have gathered to tackle and raised awareness in their community rape used to be a daily reality for these granny. Was. Now running she only hears of a case every 2nd day and she will keep on fighting until every woman young or old will say and i am coming to. Tough grannies removed from kenya to mali where one woman is doing have to make people live lives yet thats because a jihad is insurgency and the country has resulted in a big change in the way of peoples lives and musicians have been uniquely affected yes whether its a ban on music imposed by islamists in territory they control or you ban on public thats almost as bad a governments the result is the same musicians have been silenced in recent years but if a child met with one woman whos determined her voice well be it. The sound of peace and hope. You has wanted to sing all her life but when she wanted to sing the most she had to stop that was 7 years ago when the war started the jihad is to ban music and the money in government still limits public gatherings so no Music Festivals forbid you could play there this is a must its not like it was before the war for us artists but we hardly play in bamako. The artists are scared to sing at certain places. This stops us suffer because of. You is singing again in this studio working on her 1st album she does not know where she will perform it in mali but she keeps scoring. We have to Stay Together as mali and nothing is better than peace music is my weapon through music i can talk to the children of mali or speak for them and speak for the women who had visions for the farm. Aims to restore hope yet she too becomes emotional about the situation around her today she has a very special audience it is public yet hidden from the programmer temporary shelters for full army people all largely unnoticed in bamako because you performs for them about 800 people if you are they had to leave their village after it was attacked by a rival group they say the children just want to hear you sing with a lot of. Them send off. And not just yell why not there are. Better than one. We should good mates need leave this is too much one has to help these people here.
