Quinze ans après le déclenchement de l'insurrection de Boko Haram, la situation s'est sensiblement améliorée autour du bassin du lac Tchad, avec le retour de millions de déplacés et de réfugiés dans leur communauté d'origine. Si le groupe armé nigérian affilié à l'État islamique s'est essentiellement replié sur des îles du lac Tchad et dans certaines poches terrestres où ils vivent de racket, ailleurs, ce sont des pans entiers de ce grand bassin géographique qui renaissent économiquement. Certains observateurs locaux estiment que depuis fin 2020, Maiduguri redevient un hub économique. La capitale du Borno, dans le Nord-Est du Nigeria, est notamment traversée par plusieurs axes, globalement débarrassés de la menace Boko Haram. Ils mènent à l'Est du Tchad, au Nord du Niger, et bien sûr au Sud du Cameroun. De notre correspondant à Maiduguri,Bientôt 20 ans qu'Abdullahi sillonne la route Maiduguri-Gamboru menant au Tchad. Ce commerçant convoie des véhicules achetés à Lagos, au Nigeria, pour des clients en roulant sur cet axe jusqu'au Soudan. Entre 2013 et 2016, il est contraint à l'arrêt, car Boko Haram occupe alors de nombreuses localités sur les 148 kilomètres entre Maiduguri et Gamboru.« Nous sommes en mesure de circuler sur cette route en toute tranquillité d'esprit »Courant 2016, lorsque cette route a réouvert, Abdullahi a repris son activité sous escorte militaire, malgré les risques : « Nous devions garer notre voiture près de ce panneau de bienvenue, puis attendre l'arrivée de militaires de leurs casernes. Plusieurs véhicules militaires à l'avant, d'autres à l'arrière, nos voitures au milieu... Et nous roulions ainsi jusqu'à la frontière de Gamboru. Les militaires s'arrêtaient là car nous étions suffisamment en sécurité pour continuer notre trajet sans escorte. Puis, au retour, en arrivant à la frontière de Gamboru, on devait attendre de nouveau l'escorte. »Depuis 2022, certaines semaines, Abdullahi et son équipe livrent jusqu'à une dizaine de véhicules SUV, car la route A3 subit de moins en moins d'attaques : « Six ou sept checkpoints. Ce sont les principaux points de contrôle habituels. Les militaires descendent et procèdent à des vérifications. Vous devez payer les taxes imposées. Progressivement, nous sommes en mesure de circuler sur cette route en toute tranquillité d'esprit. »À lire aussiAu nord-est du Nigeria, une timide reprise économique malgré d'immenses défis sécuritairesLa clientèle étrangère encore frileuse pour se rendre GamboruAu milieu de Gamboru Market, Alhaji Umar vend en gros du tissu wax.

Mais nous communiquons avec eux via WhatsApp. Ils choisissent ce dont ils ont besoin et nous leur livrons. Dans l'autre sens, certains commerçants traversent la frontière avec des marchandises à livrer ici de temps en temps.

(Rediffusion) Alors qu'elles faisaient la Une de l'actualité dans le monde entier, il y a encore quelques années, les Chibok Girls sont retombées dans l'oubli avec la banalisation des enlèvements de masse au nord-est et surtout dans le nord-ouest du Nigeria.Amina Nkeki et Jummai Mutah ont vécu le raid sur l'internat du lycée de Chibok mené par les hommes d'Abubakar Shekau, le leader d'une des factions de Boko Haram, avant de connaître deux trajectoires différentes en tant que jeunes femmes otages. Convertie à l'islam et mariée à un combattant de Boko Haram, Amina a vécu à Gwoza, une localité du nord-est du Nigeria considérée par Boko Haram comme la capitale de son califat. Elle est la première « Chibok Girl » à être sortie vivante en mai 2016, avec sa fille Patience, née à la fin de ses deux années de captivité.

*) UN demands Israel must end 'unlawful' presence in Palestine within a year The United Nations General Assembly has passed a resolution demanding Israel end its "unlawful presence" in the Occupied Palestinian Territory within 12 months. The resolution received 124 votes in favour, with 43 abstentions and 14 countries, including Israel and the US, voting against it. It comes just before world leaders gather in New York for the UN General Assembly, where Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas are both expected to speak.

Inondations au Nigeria: «Si l'eau compromet les récoltes, on craint une saison encore plus difficile que prévue»

Près de 40 morts, 400 000 personnes déplacées. Dans le nord du Nigeria, à Maiduguri, la crise humanitaire reste majeure. Il y a 7 jours, le barrage d'Alau situé à 20 kilomètres de la capitale de l'État de Borno cédait suite à des pluies diluviennes. Une catastrophe qui s'ajoute à la crise alimentaire et sécuritaire qui frappe tout le nord du Nigeria. Situation de crise donc que tente de juguler les autorités locales avec l'appui des Nations unies. Notre grand invité Afrique ce mardi est Mohammed Malick Fall, il est sous-secrétaire général de l'ONU, coordonnateur résident au Nigéria, en charge notamment de la réponse humanitaire.  RFI : Mohammed Malick Fall, une semaine après la rupture du barrage d'Alau, est ce que la situation humanitaire est aujourd'hui stabilisée ?Mohammed Malick Fall : On ne peut pas encore parler de stabilisation. J'étais à Maiduguri avant hier et j'ai pu voir que non seulement le nombre de personnes affectées est en train d'augmenter on parle de 400000, mais le nombre de personnes déplacées aussi en train d'augmenter. On a dépassé les 100000 déplacées. Les conditions sont horribles, une forte congestion, quelquefois des conditions d'assainissement et d'hygiène qui sont extrêmement limitées. Le manque de nourriture, des enfants qui sont malades.  N'oublions pas que tout ça se passe sur un terrain qui était déjà très fragile, l'État de Borno est l'épicentre de la crise de Boko Haram depuis 2009. Et c'est dans ce contexte-là, que cette inondation vient à la limite nous faire reculer par rapport au travail qui était en train d'être entrepris pour résoudre la question des déplacés sur la durée.Vous venez de le dire, vous étiez à Maiduguri samedi. Concrètement, à quoi ressemble la capitale de l'État de Borno ?J'ai vu à une ville effectivement coupée en deux, une partie de la ville occupée par l'eau. Il y a des parties de la ville, qui ne sont toujours pas accessibles, il y a même des populations auxquelles on ne peut pas avoir accès, pour les faire sortir de leurs résidences où elles se trouvent en ce moment. Les efforts continuent de ce point de vue-là, mais on n'a pas une certitude que toutes les personnes ont pu être évacuées des lieux qui sont affectés par l'inondation.Six jours après, il y a encore de l'eau dans la ville ?Il y a encore beaucoup d'eau dans la ville. Et je crois que cette eau-là, va rester encore longtemps.Cette catastrophe survient aussi en pleine crise alimentaire, notamment en pleine période de soudure ?Non seulement c'est une période de soudure, mais c'est aussi dans un contexte où, à cause des réformes économiques entreprises par la nouvelle administration, on a observé et on observe depuis plusieurs mois une inflation galopante, surtout une inflation sur les denrées alimentaires. On parle même de 40% d'inflation sur une année, en plus du fait maintenant qu'on est dans la période de soudure. La grosse crainte que j'ai et que j'observe, c'est aussi quel impact cette inondation va avoir sur les récoltes. Parce que si les gens sont empêchés de se livrer à des travaux champêtres, si l'eau compromet la récolte, on risque de se retrouver donc avec une saison encore plus difficile que prévu.  Alors que tous nos espoirs, c'était qu'il y ait une bonne saison et une bonne récolte pour avoir plus de disponibilité de produits alimentaires sur le marché.Vous lancez déjà un appel à la vigilance et justement à anticiper les mois à venir ?Je dois avouer que, en ce moment, les inondations affectent énormément d'États dans le Nord-est et Nord-ouest du Nigeria, dont la principale activité est l'agriculture. Donc c'est une alerte aussi, non seulement pour se mobiliser et sauver la vie des populations qui sont directement affectées. Faire une course contre la montre pour éviter les épidémies, je pense surtout au cholera, parce que l'on sait très bien aussi que, l'accès à l'eau potable, les limites d'accès à l'eau potable peuvent conduire à ces épidémies-là. Mais au-delà des besoins immédiats et au-delà des interventions immédiates pour sauver des vies ou réduire la vulnérabilité des personnes affectées, la question qu'il faut garder en perspective, c'est dans les semaines, dans les mois à venir. Si les récoltes sont compromises, qu'est-ce que cela va avoir comme conséquence sur la détérioration de l'accès à l'alimentation, de l'accès à des produits dont les gens ont besoin pour leur survie quotidienne ?On entend une réelle inquiétude ?Je suis très inquiet effectivement, parce que c'est une crise qui vient se superposer à d'autres crises et donc dans ces conditions-là, avoir une détérioration comme on est en train de le voir peuvent avoir des conséquences beaucoup plus graves qu'on ne le perçoit aujourd'hui.Derna en Libye il y a un an, Arbat au Soudan fin août, le barrage de Maiduguri la semaine passée, les catastrophes sur les barrages se multiplient. Comment prévenir ces accidents majeurs ?Tout ne se résume pas au changement climatique. Je crois aussi que la préparation des États à ce genre de catastrophe est quelque chose qu'il faut renforcer. Notamment, la surveillance et la maintenance de ces infrastructures comme les barrages, les ponts. Nous, les Nations –Unies, en tout cas, les leçons qu'on tire, c'est que, il va falloir renforcer, accélérer sur ce plan-là, éduquer les populations, s'assurer que les populations ne s'installent pas dans les zones qui sont très propices à ce genre de catastrophe. Et aussi mettre en place des systèmes d'alerte précoces qui permettent d'évacuer les populations et de les alerter avant que les catastrophes n'atteignent un certain niveau. Nigeria: la ville de Maiduguri sous les eaux après la rupture d'un barrage

Trial Library partners with study sponsors to recruit candidates from a wide range of backgrounds to make sure that the principles of health equity are built into the process from the bottom up. We also speak about Hala's personal experience with her mother's care choices that led her to a career in medicine, how she balances maintaining a commitment to patients with the responsibilities of being a CEO, what it means to build a public benefit company with empathy as its ‘North star,'  and why diversity in clinical trials depends largely on healthcare providers' role as the gatekeepers.

In the late 1830s a young black man was born into a world of wealth and privilege in the powerful, thousand-year-old African kingdom of Borno. But instead of becoming a respected general like his fearsome father (who was known as The Lion), Nicolas Said's fate was to fight a very different kind of battle. At the age of thirteen, Said was kidnapped and sold into slavery, beginning an epic journey that would take him across Africa, Asia, Europe, and eventually the United States, where he would join one of the first African American regiments in the Union Army. Nicholas Said would then spend the rest of his life fighting for equality. Along the way, Said encountered such luminaries as Queen Victoria and Czar Nicholas I, fought Civil War battles that would turn the war for the North, established schools to educate newly freed black children, and served as one of the first black voting registrars.Today's guest is today's guest Dean Calbreath, author of“The Sergeant, a biography of Said. Through the lens of Said's continent-crossing life, Calbreath examines the parallels and differences in the ways slavery was practiced from a global and religious perspective, and he highlights how Said's experiences echo the discrimination, segregation, and violence.

Fighting between rival jihadist groups in Nigeria's Borno state was raging throughout December. One source believes as many as 200 militants could have been killed in the clashes. The so called Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) started life as a splinter group from the infamous Boko Haram. Since the death of Boko Haram's leader in 2021, ISWAP have gained dominance and sought to expand their sphere of influence in the last year. But the two groups have become fierce rivals and there are reports they are putting increasing energy into fighting each other. And with Nigeria holding presidential elections in less than two months, the security situation is at the top of the agenda. #AfricaDaily

It's Thursday, December 29th, A.D. 2022. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Nigerian Muslim scourge continues Islamic militants carried out attacks on Christians in multiple states in Nigeria recently. On December 17, Muslim Fulani herdsmen killed three Christians who were working on a farm. The attackers had been destroying villagers' crops as well. A local official said, “These are some of the terrible things farmers in Benue state have been facing over the years.” On December 19, members of the Islamic State West Africa Province destroyed homes, livestock, and crops in a Christian village in Borno state. The attack came after militants killed a pregnant Christian woman in the same area. Nigeria leads the world in deadly violence against Christians according to Open Doors. Sweden halted puberty blockers for minors Sweden continues to cut back on providing so-called “transgender treatments” to children, reports CBN News. The country's National Board of Health and Welfare previously put an end to prescribing puberty blockers for minors. On December 16, the national board announced their latest guidelines on the subject. The health agency urged caution when treating people pretending to be the opposite sex, acknowledging “a lack of knowledge about the results of the care.” Another factor driving their recommendation for caution was the “documented occurrence of detransition.” Bulgaria: Evangelical churches “dangerous,” cause “mental disorders” The European Court of Human Rights condemned the Bulgarian government this month for interfering with Christians' religious freedom. In 2008, the eastern European country sent schools a public notice calling Evangelical Protestant churches “dangerous religious sects” that could cause “mental disorders” in their members. Municipal authorities were trying to combat “religious missionaries around the Easter celebration.” Alliance Defending Freedom represented two Bulgarian pastors in a case against the government.  After the court victory, Pastor Zhivko Tonchev said, “We are thrilled that the European Court of Human Rights has recognized our fundamental right to religious freedom just in time for Christmas.” Twitter files reveal suppression of COVID information On Monday, the latest batch of Twitter files came out. They expose how the U.S. government pressured the social media company to suppress information about COVID-19. Elon Musk is releasing the files as the new owner, showing how the company operated before he took control. The files show the Trump administration wanted Twitter to suppress information about panic buying during the pandemic while the Biden administration wanted to suppress anti-COVID-shot information. Twitter censored true, but inconvenient COVID-19 messages and discredited doctors and other experts who disagreed with U.S. government policy. During a recent podcast interview, Musk said peoples' suspicions about Twitter's internal operations turned out to be true. MUSK: “I mean to be totally frank almost every conspiracy theory that people had about Twitter turned out to be true. (laughs) Is there a conspiracy theory about Twitter that didn't turn out to be true? So far, they've all turned out to be true.” Luke 12:2 says, “Nothing is covered up that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known.” States implemented 50 anti-abortion laws A new report from the pro-abortion Guttmacher Institute found U.S. states implemented 50 anti-abortion laws this year. The report said abortions are unavailable in 14 states now after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.  The number of anti-abortion laws is down this year from a high of 108 last year. The report noted, “However, many of the laws passed this year are near-total abortion bans; combined with the implementation of pre-Roe laws and trigger bans that had been enacted in previous years, these laws have restricted abortion access for millions of people.” Indiana Grinch didn't have the last word And finally, police officers in South Bend, Indiana saved Christmas for a family who had been robbed on Christmas Eve. A “real-life Grinch” broke into the family's home and stole their food and all their Christmas presents. Immediately, officers contacted a local toy drive and were back with boxes of presents and food for the family. The mother and her three children were overjoyed with the surprise. Officer Brian Meador told Fox News they were happy to do something positive. MEADOR: “It's why we do what we do. So many times you see just the negative, but this was an opportunity for us to do something positive. To see those children's reaction, that that makes everything worthwhile.” Acts 20:35 says, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” Close And that's The World View in 5 Minutes on this Thursday, December 29th in the year of our Lord 2022. Subscribe by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.
