Thembisile Majola served just 20 months of her three-year contract as the director-general of the State Security Agency (SSA). Before taking over in March 2022, the agency had been without a permanent head since Arthur Fraser's departure in 2018. Announcing Majol's appointment last year, President Cyril Ramaphosa said it was "an important part of government's work to stabilise the country's intelligence services". In a statement announcing Majola's resignation on Wednesday, the parties had separated "by mutual consent with the president", effective from 30 November 2023. "The president has expressed his appreciation to ambassador Majola for her contribution to the reform and rebuilding of the State Security Agency. President Ramaphosa wishes ambassador Majola well in all her future endeavours," the statement said. When announcing Majola's appointment, Ramaphosa said: "Her appointment is expected to give greater impetus to the implementation of the report of the SSA high-level review panel and the recommendations of the expert panel into the July 2021 unrest." The panel found that: "The police failed to stop the rioting and looting in July 2021. The reasons for this failure are complex and sometimes not of their making. In some instances, they did not get any intelligence upon which to plan operations." In September, News24 reported that, more than two years after violent unrest swept through KwaZulu-Natal and Gauteng in the aftermath of former president Jacob Zuma's incarceration for contempt of court, the Hawks had not secured a single conviction. Majola resigned as deputy minister of energy in 2018 citing family reasons. Before serving in the executive, she held ambassadorships in Senegal, Mauritania, Cape Verde, Gambia and Guinea Bissau. Following her appointment to the SSA, News24 reported that government insiders said Majola had long been on Ramaphosa's radar due to the respect she commanded in security circles as a result of her history serving the African National Congress in exile. Her resignation is a blow to an institution that has been in disarray since Zuma's presidency. Last year, News24 reported that organised criminal networks captured and paralysed the SSA by setting up parallel intelligence structures within the agency and looting upwards of R1.5-billion between 2008 and 2018 to serve Zuma's political interests.

Dr. Carol Penn is board-certified in family medicine, obesity medicine, and osteopathic manipulative medicine. She is a bestselling author, international speaker, and mindset movement meditation coach extraordinaire. She is also the director of Tracks and Electives and Assistant Professor of Family Medicine at Rocky Vista University, Montana School of Osteopathic Osteopathic Medicine. As co-founder of the Gambia Collaborative Project, she shares her career journey, motivations, and the skills she brings to the project. She discusses the Gambia's healthcare challenges, Western medicine's influence, and the potential collaboration with traditional healers. Dr. Penn emphasizes the importance of deep listening and sees the project as a way to give back and share her knowledge. The Gambia Collaborative Project is a 501 (c) 3 organization.

Though Heidi is a highly sought-after interior designer now, she didn't predict she'd end up in the design world. After graduating with a masters in international public health, she spent her early career working at a medical clinic in the Gambia. But when she returned to the U.S. to continue working, she was disappointed by how administrative many of the stateside roles were and began a quest to find a new career. She tried a variety of career paths including bartending, acupuncture school, and teaching scuba, but she still couldn't find anything that felt right to her. That is, until she began blogging about design. Through her blog, Heidi landed her first job at a design firm, and eventually, she set out to create a firm of her own. Today, her firm works on projects across the country, and just this September, Heidi debuted a book called Memories of Home, which details 12 of her incredible projects.

Trash in Tamsui River Basin Doubles From 2020-2023 The Society of Wilderness says a survey has found that the amount of garbage along the Tamsui River and its tributaries has doubled in the past three years. According to the society, nearly 70-per cent of the garbage is comprised of single-use plastic items.

Colombia Diaz Father Kidnapped by Guerrilla Group Colombia's government says the guerrilla group National Liberation Army, known as ELN, has kidnapped the father of Liverpool and Colombian national soccer team striker Luis Diaz. The peace delegation of the government, which is currently in negotiations with ELN, said in a statement it was “officially aware” that the kidnapping had been “perpetrated (犯下的) by a unit that belongs to ELN.” Both of Diaz's parents were kidnapped by armed men on motorcycles on Saturday at a gas station in the small town of Barrancas. The footballer's mother was rescued within hours by police. Diaz's father remained missing, which triggered special forces to search for him in a mountain range that straddles (橫跨) both countries and is covered by forest. Police also offered a $48,000 reward for information leading to Diaz's father. Diaz currently plays for Liverpool in the English Premier League, which he joined last year in a deal worth $67 million.

Continúa el goteo de embarcaciones a la isla de El Hierro. Los migrantes llegan exhaustos, deshidratados, con hipotermia y el cuerpo entumecido después de una larga travesía. La mayoría proceden de Gambia y Senegal. El muelle de La Restinga pasa de la calma a la actividad frenética en segundos cuando se detecta una llegada. Cruz Roja ha tenido que reforzar su operativo con voluntarios de otras islas para poder atender a todos.Entre ellos está Sana, un joven de Guinea-Bissau que llegó hace dos años en cayuco y ha decidido quedarse a vivir en la isla, donde trabaja en el campo.

Sabe muy bien lo duro que es, por lo que trata de ayudar en todo lo que puede.Informa Minerva Oso, enviada especial a El Hierro.Escuchar audio
