So just the dont to engagement is not shot. Soil is dry is does not fall from what good to go. The capital of cooking a fossil extreme heat, little to no rain, and many people in this country stopping. And yet, in the midst of the depleted soil, successful funding is taking place on this training farm. Students learn to grow sustainable organic food. Is that if were working to rebuild the site to make it for a tire with bio, fertilize us implants that dont need much more to do. The project is supported by gemini jobs and 8 against hunger for German Development minister spin. Yeah, sure. Its a means to fight tara, in 2022. The military sees power. They are positioning themselves against the west, especially against the former colonial power fronts. The new Strategic Partner is russia at 35 former military captain bryant, because he is the youngest president in the world. His goal to regain control of the entire country, launch pots of which are in the hands of t had this type of risk groups. A to 1000000 people are fleeing violence and tongue. The young interim president rules with an in freezing lead. Heavy head critics disappear or are sent to the front. Russia is present everywhere. At the same time, an anti western mood is being stood up on social media.

The dodge of the lot cutting the project, also funded by the gym government reliable information versus this information.

With commitment equinox, the foreign minister of the military government explains the corporation with russia is a question of supply and demand. Have a rush as a pop. Now that respects all decisions and the russian also meets our needs. These are the needs of the population, which is why i believe that outputting the ship should increasingly fit into such a framework. Your pumpkin about the above the screen is in size, we ought to southern states. So we see some things different. See, i emphasized once again how important it is for us that there was a move towards them across the collections. And the constitutional states stops and think. Noon is preparing for the exams at a boarding school. Finance by weston during this desire lines. Investing in education is another way to come, but the roots of tara, but theres still a long way to go. 6000. 00 schools have had to close. And booking a fossil because of islam is tara 1000000 children. Have no schooling are joining us on the program now is germanys development administer. Sonya schultz who was also president of this a hell, a lions, and she joins us now from why gotta do good. Welcome to the program. Youve had a meeting with looking at fossils. Military rulers, why did you choose to meet them . Especially considering germany and you oppose military takeovers . Hey, we would prefer to work with democracies around the world. But the fact is that most of the people lives in a top course take us up to graphic systems. So we need to deal also with them. We want to fight Climate Change. We want to take care that people can stay home and do not need to migrate. And with all these questions, we need to Work Together in the world. And that means we also need to have on exchange with the governments like that and what kind of fossil thats not easy, but that this the fact we need to deal with jimmys corporation. We book enough so now focuses on meeting peoples basic needs. How fall can that go under these conditions . Were talking about of the, lets not the easy. There is no black and white where we can work with, with we know if we are not in the region, so that will be space for others. We comp live the leaves this region, so the russians, so we need to stay engaged. So we need to fight against the terrorist. Um, to be quite honest terrorist, they dont failed water systems. They dont take care for health systems. They dont take care for education. But that as needed for the future of this country, if we want to fight against terrorist, we need a perspective for all the young people here and perspective that meets jobs. That means a government that works also on the local level. And becca something were working on in the saw hill alliance, but also with over to him and corporation. So hes an acknowledgement that they have been problems on the military side. And you think development is sort of the better way the more effective way to go about tackling these problems. Yes, we need these Development Corporation because there is no security without development of so we need to tackle the problems of the people why they get in contact with the terrorist. Why they have no other perspective. And that means investing in jobs, investing in the future of the people here. And that is what were doing with the cy lines. 20 a 1000000000 euros are in the region. That is a clear reaction. That means we want to stay engaged. We want to be the better part and else for the regions. How would you like ensure accountability and the long term sustainability of these projects . You know, were talking 20000000000, thats a lot of money. But on the, the current Political Climate in some of these countries looking at 5 so and its neighbors which i having challenges with democracy. Yes, that is the challenge also for us because we like to invest also in democratic structures. We like to Work Together with the democracies about here in the region. There are a autocratic systems and there are a lot of problems that we need to deal with. Im fighting against terrorism, fighting against Climate Change that the full, we need to Work Together. So that is why we work with regional level. We work with local authorities we. We work with the ones who were able to talk to the ones who wants to continue the work with us. That is not the easy, but they think that that is the way we need to go to fight against others who want to take place in that region. And im just wondering, did you say all of this looking at book enough also and these are countries of those similar challenges. What is your biggest concern as well, i think that it was more than one called so and i think seeing how effective these region is by Climate Change thing, such a lot of young people with no perspective, with no education, with the with job perspectives, that is something that needs to change and that is something we are working on and we need to Work Together with the governments here in the region. We need to work on the local level to, to give a better perspective, more security, more education, more jobs. Because that is something that affect the soul, soul, germany, it seems to be far away, thought the african continent as our neighbor. And what is happening here that affects all sol, so in germany that affects us in europe. A so it is a good advice to Work Together also with lakes region. Okay, so spend your show to german minute stuff, economic development. We appreciate your time. Thank you very much for speaking to us. The the, youre watching dw news africa still to come as the economy bytes in many countries. The president of the african Development Bank tells us why theres still hope for the future. And we get a glimpse into the space is allowing nigerians to let house the stress gone as president says, hes waiting on a Supreme Court ruling before he acts on a new l g b t to bill dfcs is already illegal in the country. But the latest legislation would extend the band to same sex displays of affection as well as lobbying for l g. B t. 2 activities on the bill has considerable support locally and thats a worry for the getting there. And it targets as dw, as a collegiate reports from across slowly ne, real name is b, but he hasnt come out in public because if he is, he will be attacked. He says the members of gun is o g, b t q plus community. Were already leaving with desperate of homophobic filings, new on c o u b t q plus low water mixing even ways life has actually changed for the worse for me personally. And i am not just here to speak on my own personal behalf, because ive seen this played out in other peoples lives. The level of fear has increased the level of isolation as increased. Since the 16th a cost is already illegal in gun a punishable by up to 3 years in prison, the he must sex your rights and family values. Bill would further restricted their rights of o g, b t q. Passings. With your attempts for identifying as gate or promoting o g p t q activities. The time urging a lot of gun names to go and read the bill and see what this bill is because it is not a bill that is supposed to promote gunny and family values. This is a bill of real hatred and vengeance. That is what the bill actually is. Rights groups have condemned. The bill is a tossed implications for all gun use. It is not only do with the people, i mean the media, you go to present the other awesome media person for publishing news that is quasi that to be promoted. So the idea that we have to stifle knowledge that we have to withhold the production of knowledge in a way that its you, its that you only have to speak in a certain way that supports discrimination against other members of the company. That is very, that much of the bill has the backing of religious and traditional lead is 8 also supported by many good news with conservative believes in my my opinion is a good that because everybody we americans have their call. So we have um, so i think something that we call so thats we are todays most accepted and we knew that duplicate output to as africa. We have vehicle that i forgot to forget to quiet while i deal with you get to want to ask you see you, i dont know the account was really dependent country where we dont spend unless, if you allow that with the content to on, to ask everything such outside opinions having a need to waynes got nice and amazed. But when the comics crises, the finance ministry has wound the president s that signing the controversial building to low good close the country below as of dollars in much needed funding from the world fund. So lets say is if the bill becomes low, his future lies outside of ghana. I will definitely hide and i will leave. I will not choose to stay in a country that sees me as a criminal. I refused to, i refused to be gagged. I refused to be seen as a criminal. I refused to be criminalized because of who i am as a person. But for now, silly is being in the group. That is to print quotes and the president decide against gun is trying to. Gabriel. Inflation has been shooting up and several african countries. People are finding the income is and not keeping up with the rising cost of living. This has led to some public protests most recently in nigeria way inflation hit a 30 year high in january. But the africa Development Bank says the continental economies are growing and will continue an upward trend over the next 2 years, the price on that will actually outpace the global average. What does that look like in bread and butter terms . What does life really look like for the average african, weve got some opinions. As many people have lost jobs, many company have closed down as a result of cost of living because you cannot afford to continue buying the do the production costs keys. How are you feeling with this whole thing . You know, you buy, talk to the paper, friends, and you like to buy this quite expensive. You go for your website and find yourself sort of downgrading your life for different. The tough to think about if equal outgoing, 5, lock and cheese and the high cost of living as it really affected me of that in person. Because you find a setting up a business and these are going to make things. Its very hard and costly. Im not asking the government to make everything cheap, but im asking for the standards to be affordable to everyone, the taxes on us really that i meant of taxes. And so i sat aside and you are not able to pay the services and come with these as before on the bill for this no hope of so a bit to see what you they go you just for the, for us, the decision to fight for our own rights, best solution to inducing their cost of living good to be giving from us about the life, the subsidized fertilizer and those and giving them the message that you sent that speak now to the president of the african Development Bank that i can well me a day she no, thank you very much for your time. Thank you for joining us on data of the news africa. So these are tough Economic Times at the moment. How can african countries respond to these the circumstances to prevent social unrest . My question from us as lights on the side of things right about the advocates, you know, thats about holy head ways that i havent got faces globally in terms of low bi inflation. But also in terms of rice, in depth levels and the precision of purposes of cost, Climate Change advocate continues to post february resident growth. And in fact, 11 out of the 20 countries that are in the world, the Fastest Growing countries in the world actually in our got so african economies applied to, isnt it . But i think the major issues that we have to make sure that we do is to continue to provide a lot of construction of financing to applicant countries. Because as to the typically effect of the 2019 situation, backcountry is to company with many of the consequentialist speaking of Climate Change. Can you go into some of these meetings with, with these a global um it needs to be global sessions. A lot of these big polluters make commitments about what theyre going to do in terms of compensating and supporting the, the, the poor a countries. But we see these commitments. We hear these commitments, but we dont actually see them being followed through how do you make sure these countries are held accountable . Love today. Advert allergies between 7. 00 and 15000000000. 00 yet because of Climate Change. So it gives you is to make sure that we support advocate that did not cause Climate Change to be able to adapt to Climate Change. And thats what were doing that the applicant Development Bank. But in addition to that, we have major programs. Were showing Global Leadership on this by the light is appointment for advocates. We have whats called the african disaster risk each other as facilities, which essentially simply just pays for premiums of countries to be able to get Companies Say that ill get to payouts when they fix actually giving us and, and the best as an impass of Climate Change and it was, well, whats in my we, we talked about maybe the notes, i mean as a promising, but always about face drives. Its helped, you know, uh oh, by 1000000 flaws from us. The amount of gas got that, that had that weve done it in new jersey throughout all that countries. And how can african countries grow their own internal expertise and funding for Development Initiatives for the you know, as we talked about Climate Change, but also even things like uh. Ready supporting structures against corruption, for example, how can all these be built almost independently . If i put it that way to look, africa has dates, the highest edition of sun life in the world. And the apple, it has a 6th about 60 percent of the war resources in solar africa, should be a global pa house. When it comes to sol Avenue Energy epic has today 65 percent of the remaining oncology, but unable land of the world. So applique, i should be a little pat. Hows info the culture . If you take a look at the modern, almost 5073000. 00, thats going to come in future from the electric cause and also batteries and all of that. You know, advocates, we have you and have a couple, you have the leads him, you have the cobalt, so you have any of these graphite, all the things. So i think i should be of that. So what im saying is that id be African Development day. We take pride in marketing, advertising investment destination. Thats important, but you have to mobilize a lot more domestic resources. So one of the areas we, i think advocate country is going to do better and they need to do better. We support is how they they get paid for their natural resources. What should i say not get paid well for that natural resources. I really think that if we are able to get good Public Financial Management done, make sure that we have money in that natural resources, better bills. Price then very, very well mix are those that need to pay taxes, pap and taxes, and baffle you can, will devise a lot more resources. And mitchell, you all have instruct through a change in the advocates of the select up to make sure we can actually do that. So were going to be able to deal with many, many of these agents. Ok, well have to leave at that. But thank you very much, dr. Can with me, additional president of the africa Development Bank. Thanks for your time. Thank you very much. The, the stresses of life on numerous, everything from the rising cost of living to the search for a new job. Setting out ones personal life were even outraged at news events. So how do you address these issues in lagos, nigeria, dw, only. So i took them, i went to a so called range room, which offers a space to let it all out. You need protective headgear. Gloves and boulevard, and boots for these kindle stress relief. Ive brought some stress with me is taking me more than 2 hours to get here twice as long as it should. Yeah. When it comes to. Busy driving really makes me hungry about the pick up pulled up, post, racial and inside the range room. Im were putting ready for the kids at facing the airports. Im ready to smash. Thats go the uh huh. That was really exit are right. That was, i really thought they were off in motion and it was also quite phone. Sorry, no way. I wasnt in this room attract some young people as a new way of saying that tension to the mental health. I feel good. I feel like some weights ive been listed or something has just come out because i find a way to creatively express and do with reach in the ridge room. So being able to actually be in the room where you are allowed to basically break seas, smash things and just release your. So for those on goods that you wont be able to really its honestly medicine. No, its like taking medicine for a dix. James bonds are close, sets up this the fast range room inmate julia in november of 2022 is a medical doctor who says he felt concerned about how people both are loved. Yeah. And some people come for fun. I just want part of it just to come and try something out. You will see some people that come because they have genuine things that have blood gene. Then maybe as was maybe as family maybes relationship wise may be some motional now nights and that percent of the time. We express less of the guy that we feel. James banjo says this is nothing alternative to pop up therapy. But for less than 10. 00, a session smashing up stuff, you know, ridge room might be an option for those who would like to let off some steam. Thats all the rage for now.
