1000 relief funds as frightening. Hello im told me a lot of ball welcome to the dublin years africa but glad you could join us my jury has suffered the effects of a decade logged insurgency by the boko haram Jihadist Group part of the governments response apart from a military operation has been to offer an amnesty to repentant militants these fighters of an rehabilitated and steered back into society except they sometimes end up living alongside the very victims of their attacks as the doubly correspondent find if a child has been finding out in the city of maiduguri in northeast nigeria. What come to my degree this sign existed long before the city gained negative notoriety for being the birthplace of boko haram in the past my degree was known as a Major Trading up a decade into the jihadist insurgency more than 2000000 people have been displaced some of them find refuge in this camp at 1st sight not much has changed since we visited last year but this time we need to form a book or a militants who have also been assigned to this camp like mari he learns how to repair shoes during the 2 years he was with boko haram he learned something else. I wouldnt. They want us to be part of their insurgency and become people who are willing to attack and kill. We went through a training to be able to kill and kill. The 45 year old claims. Considered him to alter to be a move to right yet in the camp he still stigmatised he says he was forced to join the group. When we came to the camp a lot of people accused us of so many things but that doesnt bother us. We just want to live in peace. With we here refers to a dozen others who now live in the camp hes becoming a hairdresser and claims he repents his actions. Because those people ive killed whenever i think about it i have sleepless nights may allah forgive me i want to get married go to school i want to be a very good person. I will do and are both born every government funded Training Program to help reintegrate militants that sounds like mockery to the victims here who fled their homes lost their relatives and face an uncertain future. She may have to manually tonight and i dont know how my life and that of my children will look. How does that its better to train our children then there are so many people here agree on this if they trained our children it would have more impact were angry with the. Victims and for the militants living side by side preparing to gather for a entrance into society wants to respond thats the goal but outside of the camp life is anything but stable. The capital city of borno state was considered a relatively safe haven but just a few weeks ago several rocket propelled explosives landed here in this city allegedly fired by islamist militants many here in my degree as the violence is far from being contained. In the wake of new attacks it is difficult to convince people here to reintegrate form. So how many should we really see found them with this. Just how fair is it to rehabilitate these people without doing the same for their victims. The answer seems simple. If you absolutely. Get it encourages dog who have never joined the insurgency tempted because they are even more. Victims he says rehabilitation why violence is still ongoing its counterproductive but as other observers put it amnesty to acts militants though a bitter pill to swallow may be the only way to achieve peace once the war on terror is over. Joining me now from ca tonight in Northern Nigeria is pastor dr james and most of all we hear from the Interfaith Mediation CenterNongovernmental Organization involved in the radicalization programs for former boko haram members dr we thank you for joining us why is the reintegration of these militants so urgent when some people would argue that they should be paying for their actions in prison. Well its always you can because the more you are keep them aware. More detention and the more you get more people who are up for mass going to join their way out the ive been deprogrammed men if you didnt marry cheerio fuse strongly dark glaus former us. How much had been given more privileges than the young people who did not participate in the violence and so if you want to reintegrate we feel that the government should take its time and the people involved like ourselves not morally just leaders should be recruited to go and deprogram the people in difficult and reprogram them to was really integrated theyre now coming back to decide they have art they need. Empowerment and you give this right you guys who have been derided paralyzed and one. Life so decent that you balance disappoints so that we come back that people all receive in them when i would receive them with a more open minded and see that also did not like. To go and fight what if you know what i want to say i support so for me we we have reached out to the Nigerian Government for comment so far but they havent granted this as as youre saying should and more attention be paid to the communities themselves which include the victims of these former militants actions. Very well that is it otherwise you will. Attract young people joining that really turns nasty conduits and then. Come back and people are still so that if they need what theyre really just leaders to come together. To host the community. To give them a mood of liberation. Was deliberate to detect those who are not fighting and got men most. Do it deal with the host and deal with the radicals then you can have a community. And very briefly surely of any stream or effort also to explain to the communities why these acts militant and need to be real need to be ushered back into society. Very well spoken that is that neat although i will leave public surely in exile and that its time to keep people dont decide so in order to get them back they need to preach forgiveness and. Dont use important but it just dont. Cost a community and not only that got me thinking that might you want know can look like that ok pastor dr james move away here in nigeria thank you for your time thank you for having me. With over 600000 infections south africa has been the country worst hit by the coronavirus on the continent yet it appears its response has been plagued with corruption after Public Servants members of the ruling party a. N. C. And private companies were accused of looting from the countrys relief Fund President cereal around a post called for an investigation now the Auditor General has published his findings uncovering major flaws and corruption. An opportunity to prevent. Then there are fewer. Instruments. This. News correspondent in south africa has been following the story for us good to see you is anyone in south africa surprised about the Auditor Generals findings in q tell us a bit more about them well not really because there were few indications in the past weeks actually a lot of them more and more reports coming out about corruption in relation to those 19. Expenditures of the governments now the South African government if you recall spent about 25000000000 euros on its fiscal covered 19 relief package thats one of the biggest packages on the continent and about 7500000000 euros of that is the money that was allocated to local governments and also on the federal level that was basically already spent and this is the amount of money that the order to general looked into with some frightening findings how he put it theres a lot of irregularities in the report mentioned and now these findings will be passed on to investigators theres a special Investigative Unit that will now look into this as well ok the a. N. C. South africas governing party has been blamed for corruption for such a long time to the extent bad even within the party there is conflict entering you spoke with the a. N. C. Secretary of limpopo in south africas north lets lets take a listen. To most. Things you have to. Experience. Very briefly is president obama doing enough to fight corruption when he took over as a president there was a glimmer of hope that he would do because that was his key argument he will really fight corruption now and it was right after the term remember of jacob zuma the former president under his watch corruption was rampant at the time of state capture how it is called when corrupt individuals took over institutions in the country a mess of problem and still has supporters within the party and this is what some people say the reason why there has not been that effective in his fight against corruption but this weekend the leadership of the party heads a meeting and they supported president heres what the president said in a Digital Press conference afterwards. And. Again as asian. People. If he had decisive action. Of action. If and of course is that. President. Wrapping up that segment with you. In south africa.

Greetings from berlin and welcome to arts and culture well its a shimmer of hope perhaps as the worlds oldest Film Festival gets underway in venice but culture is Still Holding its own moving forward in defiance of the coburg 900. 00 pandemic and thats not the only reason its a watershed year thats and these stories coming up. Sound artist. Comes to terms with the sexism in portia to her native cameroon by colonial powers through poetry and song. And in the meet the germans my colleague Rachel Stewart gives us a quick tour of the fairy tale world of german castle. Oh and the venice Film Festival unveiled its official selection in late july the competition roster with over 40 percent of films directed by women was heralded as progress great progress in fact considering the event had come under fire in recent years for lack of gender parity with social distancing protocols firmly in place some 90 percent of this years festival will go ahead in person a breath of fresh air for cinema despite the masks. To says hell ford as its rarely been seen with only a handful of tourists due to the pandemic the usual crowds have been staying away but people have showed up for the mass track to citys Film Festival which opens today along with films comfort cautionary measures social distancing mandatory mask wearing and temperature taking. Its pretty radical we hope that everything will go well we hope that this small stroke can be fruitful and being with joy is the. E. C. M. Might see fewer hollywood stars in attendance but one Silver Lining is that the festival has done better in terms of gender parity with 8 out of 18 films in competition directed by women. Actress Cate Blanchett leaves the jerry. Wells to the swinton receives a Lifetime Achievement award the competition runs for 11 days before we find out who will take home the series coveted golden lion. 8 out of 18 films by women directors and im joined by my colleague melissa horrid melissa has some pretty impressive gender parity there for venice so finally we might say is there did dare we hope that the golden lion might be taken home by a woman or yet could well be taken home by a woman couldnt this i mean if we think about the comparison with recent years this is a massive massive jump its a huge difference phil festival director Alberto Barbara said that the films were selected though exclusively on the basis of quality and didnt have anything to do with gender protocols interesting yeah we do have we do have a i think you were going to tell me about a couple of those yes one film that is directed by a woman and is getting a lot of boss and is also in competition is bodies i need to where are you going i you dont its by well established boston filmmaker spanish the film is based on real events from the bosnian war in the summer of 1995 it follows aida who works at a camp as a translator for the United Nations and we do have a clip of that one for lets just take a quick look. Again i work for the brits and there was a. Record of everything that you carried. Out. For your work you started work for yourself and you can go to war with the people that can come. Very intense looking film there and its interesting that jury president Cate Blanchett also said that theyve included the great Great Strides in terms of more Diverse Voices this year so what else can we look forward to well a film that is not in competition but one i think that is a very very exciting and interesting film is called out for its 1st feature film its by crystal sneak who its going to premiere in the horizon section of the festival so yeah its not in the main selection but its very very timely apple says the story of a solitary man who falls victim to an unexplained pandemic that causes sudden amnesia he decides to take part in the experimental treatment to create new memories and take photos of these experiences so he has to have a one night stand and take photos of bat we spoke to the director and he said its an allegorical story that has a lot to do with technology and social media and how we are forced more and more to live that our lives have become less and less important and the documentation of our lives become more and more important so the photos become much more important than the Actual Experience its also about identity and how selective our memories are very timely stuff. At a very different festival thanks to this corona pandemic lets hope that it all goes as planned with no new infections and this is the venice Film Festival going on until september the 12th well keep following that story obviously and thanks very much Melissa Holroyd for coming in and speaking bringing us those insights. All this week were featuring artists whose work deals with colonialism particularly with germanys colonial past and spent her Early Childhood in. Cameroon which was an african colony of the german empire from 8842916 well today as an author a performer and a musician its the complex experience of living as a black woman between 2 worlds that take center stage. Sound art slam poetry. Is a tale of heartbreak and camera. Time. She says women in africa used to have more respect for european colonisers their sex is. Such an impact and also people mentality they were purposely raising also the culture of the people stumbling over imaginary of a black man the attention 1st century. I couldnt swallow my pride trust. In africa you know as a woman need to step back and not say so much but just be smiling and cooking and helping those whose structures i was not used so. There was 10 when she 1st left cameroon for germany one of camerons former colonizers. Mother moved with her and her brothers to pursue a ph d. At a german university. Here it was a dream less child white culture is. Everywhere its the norm with the standard so when you know as a 10 year old that youre going to europe its like the show look at the place. But as the only black girl who experienced not just racism but pressure how to explain african this to europeans she felt even her mothers generation had lost the answers. Back to cameroon singing in english french and german. And. There is. This. Week. That kind of music she says couldnt keep up with the energy of cameroon. She went electronic and experimental style she still creates and now as a mother in berlin. This piece of sound art includes recordings of ghanas 1st independence leader kwame nkrumah. And conversations about the recorded in shared taxis and camera. Since moving back to germany says shes stopped taking responsibility for others ignorance we do not even know here in germany i have called this nation more with people like jim need to. And that. The legacy of colonialism is written into berlins african quarter and the 19th century was planned here that would exhibit african animals and humans to. Today by chance many africans live here comes here for cameron and for. These days she says shes more at ease navigating her complex identity but. What i discover with. That important its ok. Not knowing and uncertainty what enjoying the journey. May be called the closer. Well for visitors from abroad europe is known as the land of fairy tales and many of those tales took place of course in a castle germany has its fair share of these and my colleague Rachel Stewart has visited a few. Welcomes else cos it used to be featured on the back of the 500 bill i mean days its a big hit on instagram not bad for a nearly 900 year old cops and. There are an estimated 20000 capacity germany there are some the committal westaway the weather of munching ruins a very tale perfections youll think youll spoil the joys of. This even a route called costal road that stretches all the way from mannheim to by a foot and takes you past some 60 castles the glorious ross noise from shining but varia is one of the most visited castles in the whole of europe and its even centered inspired by disney. Ok time for a quick language check on a fairy tale sightseeing tour through germany youre probably going to see 2 different words being used book and shots in general a book is fortified protected by a wall or make a schloss is closer to the english word palace and would have been built as a luxury as residence but some medieval books have been converted to trust and sometimes the words he used interchangeably even doubt just take both names like transfer of installing. That does seem to be quite an appetite for royal gossip here in germany i definitely know more about the British Royal family now than i did when i lived in the u. K. Perhaps thats because the germans no longer have rules of the writing at the end of the 1st world war all official royal titles and associated legal privileges were abolished however it was permitted that some titles could be merged into the family surnames and thats why were now able to talk to a real life count. With. Dr graf on the screen im told from school back before she informed onto this into. Well visits me as a whole foods 42 apart from counts and tourists who else might you find in a castle. There are plenty of spooky legends surrounding japanese passes a popular apparition is the vice of white lady whose appearance was often thought to signal the imminent death someone. Here at earths castle its agnes who said to haunt the whole. The story goes that in the 15th century the Council Rather of venice doors are supposed to marry the squire who by all accounts was a bit of a. 2 she refused to kiss him at their engagement how do you think he took that not so well he disappeared for a year and then finally returned to attack the cops agnes donned her brothers armor and joined the battle but she was killed by her would be fiance. The legend goes that agnes is going to some time scene in the car support going off to midnight. Gives new meaning to the term damsel in distress well thats all for this time so until we meet again stay safe and ill buy. The food in. Conflict zones these days americas religious rights are in the spotlight your worst groups are active in europe and elsewhere seeking to overthrow the whole last of moules for the legalized among other things abortion and gay most of the World Congress of some of those provides a false hope platform for such good from this week one of its spawn those aluko joins move from iraq to fill a lot of conflicts over. 90 minutes on d w. Zs been robbed of their soul thats what the people experiences when their heritage is taken from them. Countless cultural artifacts were brutally stolen from africa by colonialists and carted off to europe. These things just lift wounds that have yet to heal. Should be done with the stone or from africa. Stolen soul starts september 7th on d w. Im not often kept at it i guess sometimes i am but i stand up and whip it up and pretend you havent think sneaked into the german culture of looking at stereotypes aquatics but interesting to see for a country that i dont blame. Yes. We take his grandmother day out to eat its all that. I might show from the sunday. Post. A meal time to call complete the 2nd season of. The pandemic flu. Slip into nice Little Planet on the brain responsible leading experts in the fish. Hook up just the only real sense of. This is teed up the news line from violate germany says the election was poisoned with a military grade nerve agent russias leading opposition figure is now in a medically induced coma here. In siberia the German Government says it now has proof that he was poisoned with the talks in shock the chancellor says is attempted. On the venice Film Festival opens with glitz and glamour the show goes on even though it is kept many times i will bring you a preview of the top films competing for the gold and. Welcome to the program. You have a chance im going to medical has called for answers from moscow over the poisoning of russian Opposition Leader alexei in the valley describing the attack on him as attempted murder test found that he was poisoned with a chemical nerve agent not be chalk doctors at Berlin Charity hospital where hes being treated as a mist in the valleys in a serious condition in intensive care and could suffer long term damage he was transferred to berlin from siberia where russian doctors have previously rejected i think asians that had been poisoned. Chancellor merkel is insisting the kremlin has a case to answer not that spits the i love border up with the German Army Special mubarak tree has delivered a clear result and excited about me was the victim of an attack with a chemical nerve agent from the nothing chop group this poison could be identified unequivocal in tests so it session that aleksei know the is the victim of a crime not me he was intended to be silenced and together with the entire German Government i condemn this in the strongest possible terms will turn to dust off their guns and witness the deal there are now very serious questions that only the russian government can and must answer would you want to salute you want bad fortune khan has got a closer look at this with the w. Correspondents kate brady then and youre in russia in moscow welcome both lets start with you kate strong words from the german chancellor what proof do the germans have. Well this proof came as a result of a special toxicology test that was carried out by the department of the German Military by the German Bundeswehr and this department actually focuses on chemical weapons in the protection of civilians and the military against chemical weapons and it was this test result german chancellor Angela Merkel said that was proof that alexina was indeed a victim of a crime she said that the aim was indeed for him to be silenced so you are in moscow the chunks demanding answers from the kremlin what have a say. Well russian authorities have so far been reluctant to comment on this issue phil mr bischoff spokesperson of the russian president Vladimir Putin for example saturday that the kremlin would currently be able to give a proper response to the statement but that is in a way also a state by state and i think mr scoffs at that the kremlin the didnt receive such information flow from the German Government which was quite doubtful after uncle americal had spoken about this issue whether the Russian Foreign ministry sat beilin statements on the van there are not based on any evidence the reactions from the Russian Parliament criticizing the German Government to war expected we have reaction from Alexei Kondratiev a member of the Federation Council committee on the national or International Affairs cold he called it a provocation dictated by political motives and hes opinion it could be organized by the United States to stop the gas project and not stray into between russia and germany then we have learned slutsky chairman of the states do not International Affairs committee he asked to provide concrete and tangible evidence of the poisoning with with the substance similar to the chalk another member of the Federation Council blame to germany for the lack of cooperation he said germany will to deal only with accusations while russian authorities will be ready to cooperate so brave lots of people shouting at each other is this just what wed expect or is it actually damaging german russian relations. But it certainly isnt helpful to german russian relations but i think its interesting that. Highlighted in her statement to the press this evening that novell knee is indeed being treated here in berlin on humanitarian grounds but that said the situation right now is increasingly becoming political so it will be interesting to see what response germany and its partners and also nato member Member Partners decide to take in the coming days but that said none of the germany nor its partners a rating in a strong position right now to really risk outright confrontation with moscow while the e. U. And nato have had to deal with other suspected kremlin poisoning cases kate so did do these give us a clue about likely steps. Well one potential 1st port of call could indeed be sanctions but targeted sanctions against specific people in russia could also be against businesses against vessels but of course i think what we can take away from the statement that came from the German Foreign minister and also from german chancellor Angela Merkel is that germany wont be making any decisions on its own its looking for a joint and approved create response michael moss the German Foreign minister said in response to what i have a moscow says and thats the response that will be waiting for but of course thats very hazy right now as your ear was explaining just a moment ago so lets talk about the. Supporters in russia how are they reacting to this. Well phil we have the reaction from the spokeswoman awful accent of only. The other members of the steam they all had been insisting from the beginning that tallackson of ali was poisoned and linked to the incident to his Political Activities and the violence supporters have consequently demanded that that he should be medically treated at broad in germany to investigate it through reason of the incident and to guarantee his safety. Kerry lets not forget the sad for all of this a man in intensive care in hospital what do we know about his condition. Well the sharon tate hospital where he is being treated at the moment released a statement an update on his health just this afternoon saying that he does remain in a very serious condition but he is in a stable condition he is still in an induced coma and is also on a support system to help with his breathing as well and of course one of the biggest concerns for his long term recovery as well is what the long term effects of this nerve agent poison might be on his health in the future. Its a bravery thank you youre in. Moscow thank you as well. Chalk is the same nerve agent used to poison a former russian intelligence agent and hes daughter in britain in 28 the kremlin suspected of involvement in that and several other poisoning over recent years. In march 28th seen a poisoning in the u. K. City of sauls breach shops the world russian double agent. And his daughter yulia were found unconscious on a park bench. They had been poisoned with a military grade nerve agent a u. K. Investigation blamed russia for the attack moscow denied any involvement and while the screen pals survived others werent so lucky one woman who came into contact with residues of the nerve agent later died and before then another russian defector had been poisoned in the u. K. All members will note. The death drugs are the live in yankee in 2006 the former russian agent Alexander Litvinenko fled to london in 2000 he became ill and died in 2006 after drinking tea laced with radioactive polonium 210. 00 a british inquiry found that his killing had been ordered at the highest level. That further. That the 1st operation to. Mr litvinenko was approved by mr but. The. F. S. B. And also by president putin another case is evicted yuschenko in 2004 he was a ukrainian Opposition Leader running against moscows preferred candidate he fell ill after having dinner with Ukrainian SecurityOfficials Say he was poisoned with the chemical dioxin he survived going on to become president of ukraine. And activist peoc to a vessel of who has ties to russian protest group pussy riot managed to survive what he says was a poisoning attempt in 2018 histories backed by doctors who treated him in berlin says he was targeted because of his activism. Its more of a. Kind of like a warning gesture so as to indicates to other people who might want to go down that path to not do its the kremlin has consistently denied involvement in these cases and while it can be almost impossible to prove hes guilty does it all and others sure who is to blame. But take a look at some other stories making news around the world down south in cambodia one of the tory a sect killer in the countries that genocidal command rouge regime has died at the age of 77 comrade oversaw the deaths of thousands the commander rouge murdered millions of cambodians and buried them in mass graves that became known as the killing fields had been serving a life sentence for crimes against humanity.

Diamonds are in decline now demand for the precious stone slums during the pandemic african countries including botswana are feeling the pain. On 12 travel restrictions have devastated the Aviation Industry the rise in Online Shopping 110 up to monta for air cargo. This is. Ferguson thanks for joining me we begin in botswana where the coronavirus has dealt a major blow to the countrys all important diamond industry the precious stones have transformed from one of the poorest nations in africa to one of its most successful midsized economies but falling demand has put the economy out of risk of losing its sparkle. Diamonds made botswana rich but demand for the precious gems has plummeted worldwide during the coronavirus pandemic Global Travel restrictions locked out International Buyers traditionally they travel to botswana several times a year to view and bygones. Depps juana a joint venture between botswana and diamond mining giant to beer is exported 916000000. 00 worth of diamonds in the 1st quarter of this year and the 2nd quarter exports fell by 68 percent. Prices for rough diamonds are down by 20 percent falling prices and shrinking exports are expected to weigh heavily on botswanas economy diamonds account for 70 percent of the countrys exports. From or any impact the pandemic has had on africa diamond industry im joined now by journalist philip divest in johannesburg hi fellas welcome to the show well just follow the example of botswana there how big of an impact is the decline in diamonds having on other african economies its quite significant for the entire Southern African region keep in mind which one it is usually dependent on diamonds hell also have diamond mining activities in namibia and in the city and that it will feed streety south africa as well as get you to the cross border tracks are those are all the moment you see the diamond prices come down is it general the price of the state on the entire region and still piles of government been responding to the crisis in the diamond industry. Not particularly well to date and we think this might simply be because they have bigger fish to fry youve got it general economic problem due to lock down restrictions in south africa and elsewhere theys a lot of time being spent on coronavirus preparation and the aeration so frankly the diamond industry is just not trying to change and just quite yet theres also the same scraps the diamonds has always been a highly profitable trait and that politically speaking people are just thinking well the industry can take care of themselves ok so with that lack of Government Action in mind how would you rate the chances of recovering in a stray. It really all depends on what happens in the major consumer markets china and asia will cruelty and that india will or the demand for diamonds will come back in those regions where the consumers will simply have the money. And if they do whats what they kind of confidence levels are you know diamonds are ultimately luxury symbol d and theyve been marketed as such for a long time the industrial demand is its just nature so will Chinese Media consumers continue spending well they spend that money on diamonds or will they look to other status symbols or other forms of jewelry perhaps that will determine the fate of the industry more so than anything that happens here in Southern Africa or see what lies ahead philip divest thanks so much uganda has traditionally been known as a nation of tea drinkers thats despite the fact that the country is the 2nd largest producer of coffee in africa after ethiopia but tastes appear to be changing with increasing numbers of people in by think coffee caltech i next the 4th thing the throne establishment in the capital kampala. A strong coffee aroma increases as you approach volcano coffee at this popular upmarket mall and the ugandan capital kampala. Founder Gerald Kantor bonzi focuses on specialty coffee especially around because beans grown on the volcanic mound down on ranges in the eastern part of the country. Moving and i love the. Coffee harvest from nearby offices there on the kiosk to see one of the many varieties. Thats the thing because. It kicks it helps me like going out to do something for that if i take it they dont say. I love it still it is destroying the way. I love the flavors. And i dont like to have family as if to. Try it out. Volcano coffee relies on a franchise model. To get even set up an academy to train new generations of baristas you know that then we have integrated and you can put it im not sure if youre brewing by the same time Space Shuttle manual doing so we hope it is to you for that you took on it they would make a new path to decor for domestic before such in uganda and also actually it was one of general carter bonzi says one kilogram of coffee can produce 100. 00 cops and if one can cost a dollar that means it can bring in 100. 00 in revenue thats a good income in a country where most young people are jobless. And it helps the farmers because a grown domestic market means theyre less likely to suffer from a global recession like the one const by the covert 1000 pandemic but its a difficult task because ugandas colonial past has led many local consumers to believe coffee was intended for export markets and the farmers only had tea to drink. Traditional coffee in uganda was. Gutted it waiting months for. Those so it was a rich mans product at the same time cause of the bus to me fits or bust experiences with from cornelius the british you got in Coffee Consumption was. Rich were talking a minimum rid of close to one percent thats mine cut a boss he says its important to change the narrative with a tasty homegrown product for all ugandans the mindset how the number of coffee enthusiast has surged to 6 percent of the population and continues to grow.
