You have to do is we have a record on this line is fiction is in nigerias most populous city. Hello, im christine wonder. Its good to have your company to talk maybe one of the worlds Fastest Growing social media apps, but the video sharing platform has been facing serious headwinds in some of its key markets. India, for example, banned. The chinese owned app in june. Now to talk is looking for to africa to increase its Global Market share. The company has made investments on the continent which includes recruiting and training influences and creating and promoting campaigns. Well be talking more about that after this report from kenya, which happens to want to be one of tick tocks target countries on the continent. Ok, very creative dance moves, a mix of music and other training videos. These are just some of the ingredients that ive made to talk of the Fastest Growing social Media Network ever riding high on that success is colombian, both have your fleet most popular to talk star with almost 289000 followers. I started on instagram, but then moved to tech talk last year and thought has just taken off a company thats been amazing. As a content producer, have, you know, has won over fans with the scenic take a popular somali. And so his music, which proved he could many kenyans do look down. So many people went online that brought so much attention to what is to talk away from the control with his dog. To, talk in the u. S. , we are going president. Donald trump has tried to ban the op to took a figure. It is now monday took to social Media Networks in nigeria has a population of over 200000000. And the uk is not far behind in kenya. But whats, behind the up success in africa . Well, took didnt want to talk to d. W. , but instead, you know, later, the company attributes its popularity to a creative, vibrant, and multicultural continent. However, well the opposition to a big success soccer, cyber experts believe it needs to be tricky lately because of privacy concerns. And so its not dangerous, its a platform, a platform for to tell you meant however, the data it takes it can be used for malicious purposes. But to a lot may be the case. Many african governments do not seem to view that as a concern at the moment. I think even if it were to be banned, weve learned so much as content creators through a platform that we can take anywhere with the same thing were doing on tape that we can take somewhere else. Because the popular business challenges in other parts of the world obviate another you can lose and continue to enjoy the platform. One ve got to time with no thing. And at the table with me is a totally illogical who has been following the rise of to talk in africa very closely. Help us understand why, why africa, why is africa such an important market for ticktock . Well, the world has become a smaller, much smaller place with the internet, with accessibility. And now with the problems that tech talk is having in the us, its beginning to look at other markets. Africa, for example, has this large young population who are tech savvy, who are getting increasingly connected. And ticktock is one of the places that i mean online is where the on tech talk things that it can reach this demographic just as facebook and instagram and twitter have succeeded. Doxies a large market there. Right . And are they getting the number they are mean to top has been popular in many african countries . Kenya, for example, which we saw in that report earlier, was the 2nd most downloaded app in 2019. Well, and were seeing similar numbers in different african countries. A lot of these popular people on these countries, these african countries are seeing some of them with 1000000 plus of followers. So its quite popular with many i dont know, a lot of the cool kids dont have it on tickets. I didnt lose the demographic. You know, who have a, well, the train goes up to talk, it depends on what you want to use it for. A lot of the young people trying to have fun. I think fun is the keyword here, but not just fun. People want to pass a serious message, still use creative means one takes up to do so. And so, and so it, it has all these inbuilt ways that you can be creative very easily and it rules environment to things that instagram, for example, remember instagram, remove the likes feature, keeps the likes the shares as well. So you, your stuff can be shared by anybody, organically, and anybody can be a star. And thats why people are trying to be influenzas on ticked off. Ok, so tell me there are some critics of tick tock, right . We saw it in the report, the regulators are looking into it. Just tell us why way thats the case. Why do some people once this app to be regulated . Well, as we heard in the report, theres the issue of data privacy that they are some concerns about that. For example, in kenya, weve seen that mentioned as well in kenya. Some senators brought up the issue of people posting what they said were content that goes against traditional values. What they consider in the sentence or the kenyan senators are trying to raise some kind of ban against take talk or restrictions on kind of regulation weve seen in egypt as well. People getting arrested several particularly women getting arrested for allegedly being indecent on there as well. So i think it has to do with more to do with the cultural aspect of things rather than dates of privacy that were seeing clear. Well, tell me, let us join the cool kids club. We can at least and see who gives them the names follow as if the news ok gets out of the kids wonderful. The us. Exactly. Thats another they told me led to full of thank you for that. And here are the stories making headlines across the continent. If the o. P. s military and to grind forces have both came to fond says as they continue to battle in the countrys northern most regional, amid growing international concern, the uns human rights chief has called on both sides to give clear orders to their fight, says to spare civilians and early results from sundays president ial election became a fossil of the incumbent rushmore. A burra in the leaves, despite opposition, claims that the vote was 14 and the Electoral Commission says the insecurity and also of the country prevented more than 300000. People from voting for it is in somalia as plenty and regions say 6000 families at the never told list and without food off the cycle of guts. He struck the coastal region. Security forces have been evacuating people in the town. As the heavy rains are expected to continue now its been nearly a year since nigerian officials demolished a seaside slum in lagos, forcibly evicting thousands of residents. And some of these people are still homeless. Our reporter visited one of the eviction sites where he met an old woman living in the rubble off. What used to be her home. It took be viewed. You guys, you know, its just nice are not allowed to fume. But we managed to sneak in without drawing attention, ordinary derian army. The whole community was destroyed in a single day. We men and true during we are not spared. So bold, not also hard to go. She pleaded with the military possum nude to spear home because she doesnt have anywhere else to go in. There goes. But she was very of to be in the ruins of what was once a hollows, from a mundane came around. To be sure to open down this list goes on. Nobody here for me to go. So i stick myself inside the room. The 1st words out there with them call for i would at the brink of a day hear their bros all this place. You believe me a little more than 20000 . People have seen their houses here at the more east. As you can see, its just robbers and people who have been here, they are scattered or in the neighboring villages. And now this place is money just is controlled through controlled by the Nigerian Navy mohammads. And i was also the if the homeless he couldnt, savage, anything from his home. Back to a Good Samaritan gave him a room in a basement zona. Steeps on this piece of wood and he has rose faith in his government, but he and others we tease, went to court in a bid to stop father, even chance will continue to push to force to 13th rate. So our fight workers might determine how said this will be so we can do both. But not everyone has abandoned. The big tease, iraq will enjoy is advocating for the rights of some community raised. And and weve also been trying to see how to help them to, to improve their quality of life, where theyre staying and supporting the host communities. However, we believe strongly that when 4500 people are displaced in a day by the government is the governments responsibility to help them to be resettled, to make sure that you know that suffering is alleviated. So far, the government has not taken responsibility for the force of the actions. And the negro explanation has yet to be given to the 23 communities neighbors where homes were destroyed. But the Current Administration promises to improve their lives of the people, even in slums. In whatever previous government are gone in times of displacement of people and not physically regeneration programme. We want to improve on our communities. And why doing that . We want to work with the community is a make life better for the communities to do it. The city of greater new displacement to talk or be obinna hides from the scorching sun and a tree. And when night falls, she enters this makeshift shelter covered with the top. She prays how government will soon come to her rescue.

So lets get straight to the winners and some of those shows we should be watching. My colleague, adrian kennedy, is here for more adrian best drama went to delhi crime. Is this a well deserved choice . In your opinion . Yes, this is a very important 7 part series. From netflix, india, it was directed by the met and it tells the story of the Police Investigation following the delhi gang rape of dissent 2012, which caused a storm of outrage across india and led to changes in the lol. As the chief investigator, it was originally conceived as a movie, the dark suspense. 6 years for such a story. Before shooting of the 62 days. The series ends wrapping up that particular case, but there will be a 2nd series with the same cast of characters investigating a new crime. And who could forget that horrible event. Now lets talk about the best documentary. I mean that went to a syrian film thats also been generating a lot of attention. Tell us more about the documentary film for some. I was previously nominated for an oscar. This shows the life of a key in aleppo, touring the civil war in syria.

And we can celebrate this great 20 at home in our country with our all be part. Oh, very powerful moment there, adrian. What else stood out to you at this Years International . I mean awards while i was absolutely Glenda Jackson got the best actress award at the age of 84 for how tall as more would in this book is missing for and just do. Its a detective story, amateur detective story that also deals with the devastation of dementia. All the more incredible, as jackson took 23 years off from acting to serve as a member of parliament and won the 1st of 2 oscars white back in 1970. , now speaking of the 1970, s. , adrian, were going to shift gears a little bit because i think that your, you brought us another piece of news that has to do with another 970 s. I car. Thats fine, just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water. Thats a question now because the only so more true costs for the 975 oscar winning film jaws has been hoisted into its new drawing dog. At the Academy Museum in los angeles, the 7. 6 me to shock with 116 teeth, was rescued from a junkyard and is being lawfully lovingly restored to its former glory coorey, a slave terrifying. That is, a lot of things found in a junkyard. Thats one drink out of it. Thanks so much. Thank you. Speaking of glory, Buckingham Palace in london. It is undergoing major renovations, and paintings are coming off the walls. The palace picture gallery is getting a new glass roof after 200 years of highlights from the queens collection are set to go on display to the public, including works by kind of vermeer and rembrandt. From old masters to new comer of the year artist autobahn congo was named the number one star of tomorrow by germanys const Compass International art. Ranking and congo lives in belgium. But her art is still grounded and her native nigeria, the ground, what it gives us. What we take from it is a central focus of congress. Art. She works with Minerals Like those mined in her home country of nigeria. Here in the entire landscapes are stripped and hollowed out like in this sculpture. It was that way in the colonial era, and the exploitation continues today. The world is only there to be built to be able to take out and use. And so its a combination of that with the constant idea that it has to grow. It has to be said, and that is the result is ruined landscapes, but also ruin human psyche its not about congo, believes are exploited of relationship with the ground. With nature makes us 2nd as well. She questions, our unbridled Economic Activity and boundless consumption and Little Things that youre doing like oh my god, the plastic bottle, im Drinking Water and that other when i look at my house is filled with all kinds of things that im looking at. And im wondering how did i get there . And then i wondering how do i get rid of it and then getting rid of it means getting it out of my sight. But where does it go . And to whose backyard is it entry. And i understand that as an addiction, as an addiction to something that you cannot get rid of, many of the effects of our way of life remain invisible to us. Like this drop of liquid that simply evaporates. Yet it still exists and we inhale it along with the air we breathe. Just as we do all the toxic materials we release into the world, environmental destruction and over exploitation force increasing numbers of people to flee regions that have become uninhabitable. Millions who were once deeply rooted to their homelands. To conquer, believes that just like trees, humans have their ancestral places to. This performance piece is meant to show that when were on foreign terrain, were like we did plants. The artist says thats what migrants experienced too. But never in Human History have immigrants felt the need to adapt completely to their new home. To assimilate. Perfect, you dont want to connect top of the people, but you want to connect to the law. You dont want to connect to the culture, sort of food. But you want to grab plants and make your own food. So there is a difference of thinking that one hospital integrates within the spaces that the evil one comes into a place to restart. So that plays and recalibrate that place, so that on light. So its 2 different things, but up on the counters, work stretches from the past into the future, demonstrating the complex relationships between humans and land or latest exhibition, the one we just saw there is currently closed due to the pandemic. Its called, theres no such thing as solid ground. How to incorporate more nature into architecture. Thats the goal of architect giacomo gars. Yana has been working on this design for a sustainable new living quarter in the netherlands. Because his work bio phillips, meaning having a lot of life projects still in the works, but we did check out another building. He finished this year instead of concrete curves rather than hard edges. A style of architecture that loves life the result of building according to the principles of biofilm, like architecture. Jack, an ogress ianto is the architect of the freebooter in the dutch city of amsterdam. One of the key elements of the way you feel if your approach is to create a direct connection with nature and we created by using natural materials that, that simulates or are connected with was really an experience to nature. Martin slats are placed around the entire building, ensuring optimum lighting conditions and privacy. The suns movement was observed over an entire year, so the slats could be aligned perfectly. Another fundamental concept of bio philippa architecture is that interior and exterior space should merge into one. As soon as we, you know, we wake up in this, in this room, we can already open up and have a direct connection to the terrace and through the natural of the water. The freebooters special construction method only cost about 10 percent more than a conventional 12. 00. Families live here each with 120. 00 square metres of living space. They enjoy special indoor climate and a house with close to 0 energy consumption. Thanks to state of the Art Technology especially like this room because you have 3 a day and at the end of the day it ends here and the light is very beautiful in this room. Its not just the light that special. The house appeals to all the senses. When people come to visit, almost everybody wants to touch this part. Its girl, its moot people love it. The freebooter residents have no doubt that their quality of life has improved since moving in british musician paul barton, also by its nature, has been playing for blind and injured elephants at an animal sanctuaries in thailand for a decade now has moved on to a real challenge though, playing beethoven for hungry monkeys, his concert at the famous monkey temple of lopburi was meant to raise awareness for the animals who normally depend on tourists to feed them.
