In the vibrant city of Mombasa, Kenya, a young South African chess sensation has made history. Jorah Soojay, a 16-year-old Grade 11 student at Ashton International College, Ballito, stunned the continent with a perfect 9/9 score, securing the U17 championship title and earning his provisional FIDE Master (FM) title at the African Schools Individual Chess Championship. Jorah's journey to victory was a testament to his unwavering determination and resilience. Despite falling ill with a terrible flu on the second day, he fought through the gruelling matches, proving that true champions rise above adversity. His flawless streak was not just about skill, but about perseverance and faith. "I am filled with immense gratitude and pride," Jorah said, reflecting on his achievement. "Scoring a perfect 9/9 is truly special, and it reinforces my belief that perseverance, preparation, and faith lead to success." The competition was fierce, with matches lasting up to five hours, testing Jorah's mental strength, endurance, and precision. He faced some of Africa's most skilled young players, but his strategic thinking and composure under pressure paid off. Jorah's victory is not just a personal milestone; it's a moment that inspires young chess players across South Africa and beyond. His achievement proves that hard work, faith, and determination can defy expectations. With his sights set on the International Master (IM) title, Jorah's journey is just beginning. Beyond chess, Jorah prioritises his academics, recognising that the skills he has developed from the game, time management, strategic thinking, and composure under pressure help him succeed in school. He aspires to pursue actuarial science or data analysis and entrepreneurship, while continuing to grow in chess. Jorah's story is a beacon of hope and inspiration, reminding us that true strength lies not just in skill but in resilience and determination. As he embarks on his next challenge, the chess world will be watching, eager to see what this young prodigy achieves next.

In this week's episode of Born to Watch, we're diving deep, like three layers deep, into Christopher Nolan's reality-bending sci-fi thriller with our Inception (2010) Review. The team celebrates three years of podcasting with one of the most mind-twisting films of the 21st century.It's only fitting that a film about dreams, time loops, and subconscious sabotage kicks off our birthday episode. With a cast that includes Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hardy, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and Ken Watanabe, this Nolan original has become a modern classic. But is it as smart as it thinks it is? Does the top fall? And how many times do you really need to watch it to understand what the hell is going on?Whitey, G-Man, and Damo don't just scratch the surface, they go full inception mode, breaking down the film's ambitious plot, its dream architecture, and whether Cobb is actually home with his kids or just lost in another layer.From Dreamscapes to DiCaprioWhitey kicks off with his usual gusto, revealing that he saw Inception solo on opening day, classic cinephile move. He hails it as peak Nolan and DiCaprio's most complex role, while G-Man confesses he just watched the movie in full for the first time this week. Damo, meanwhile, delivers the ultimate snob flex: he's seen it three times and still finds new details with each watch.The team breaks down Dom Cobb's fractured psyche, the emotionally rich (and confusing) relationship with Mal, and how Ariadne (played by Elliot (Ellen) Page) is more than just the new recruit; she's the audience surrogate. There's praise for Joseph Gordon-Levitt's gravity-defying hallway fight and Tom Hardy's cheeky charm as dream-forger Eames. Hardy might just be playing his most “normal” character ever.The Nolan EffectFrom the layered timelines to the rules of the dream world, Nolan's script is pure high-concept storytelling. The boys debate the film's exposition-heavy style, with Damo defending it as necessary and Whitey pointing out how cleverly the rules are integrated into dialogue. G-Man admits that the film almost lost him early on, but it eventually clicked.The group agrees that what sets Inception apart isn't just its ambition, it's the balance between visual spectacle and emotional stakes. Cobb's longing to return to his children grounds the entire story. As Whitey puts it, “Love is the engine of the movie.” And that spinning top at the end? The debate rages, with Damo arguing that the wedding ring, not the top, is Cobb's real totem.Zimmer's Sonic BoomHans Zimmer's iconic score is one of the true stars of the episode and the film. The guys take a detour to relive their recent trip to see Zimmer live, where “Time” was the final encore and “Mombasa” opened the show. Damo drops some deep trivia, including Zimmer's creation of the signature “braaam” sound that became a staple in modern trailers.Zimmer's blend of orchestral grandeur and percussive power is credited with elevating Inception to the next level. It's not just background music, it's narrative glue.Big Ideas, Bigger DebatesThe episode also tackles the meta: could inception be real? Is dream-sharing possible? The crew has fun exploring the logic (and illogic) of the film's concept, concluding that it's a hard "maybe". They also dive into Nolan's place in the pantheon of modern directors, putting him above even some of the biggest names for his commitment to originality.Damo offers a run-through of the best Nolan films, debating whether Inception tops The Dark Knight, Interstellar, and Memento. G-Man drops trivia about the film's production and cast (yes, Pete Postlethwaite was only in it for three minutes), and the whole crew salutes Nolan's ability to deliver blockbuster-level art films.IN THIS EPISODE:Dream physics, logic puzzles, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt in zero-GThe tragic brilliance of Mal and why Cobb's guilt is the real villainTom Hardy: suave or too normal?The mystery of Ariadne's tiny pantsIs this peak Nolan?

In 1896, construction began on the Uganda Railway starting from Mombasa and cutting west through dense bush, rocky escarpments, swamps, and unfamiliar terrain to the shores of Lake Victoria. The work was gruelling and the men suffered from horrible diseases, lack of food and water and terrible living conditions. And then they began disappearing in the night and soon work ground to a halt completely. But what was causing men to flee into the bush in terror?Don't miss an episode—follow, comment, like, and share!Connect with us on social media @‌themondaynightrevue or email at themondaynightrevue@gmail.com.Explore our podcast merch: Shop HereSupport the show: Buy Me a CoffeeDiscover curated reads: BookshopFor ad-free episodes, minisodes, and exclusive perks, join us on Patreon: Support on PatreonWritten and edited by Corinna Harrod with Holly Clarke.

Matthew Shepherd, Director of Outreach and Education, Bring Back the Pollinators Matthew has worked for the Xerces Society for more than two decades, initially at the vanguard of a new movement to protect pollinators, but then on endangered species and a range of other issues, as well as several years leading Xerces' communications work. Throughout this time, he maintained a direct involvement in pollinator conservation in towns and cities, and in his current role has returned to outreach and community engagement. Much of this focuses on supporting neighborhood-level efforts such as pollinator gardens and small habitat projects in parks, as well as leading the Bring Back the Pollinators campaign and promoting the No Mow May and Leave the Leaves initiatives. Matthew is author of numerous articles and other publications, including Attracting Native Pollinators (Storey Publishing, 2011) and Gardening for Butterflies (Timber Press, 2016). He also is the long-time editor of Wings, the Xerces Society's magazine. Matthew's 35-year conservation career began in England and took him to Kenya before his arrival in the United States. After completing a master's of science in land resource management, Matthew managed National Trust lands in Oxfordshire, established a successful community-based conservation program in Essex, and helped to create Samphire Hoe, an award-winning nature park at the foot of the White Cliffs of Dover. During a VSO placement in Kenya, he worked with local communities and government agencies to improve the management of Arabuko-Sokoke Forest, on the coast north of Mombasa. It was in Kenya that he met a Peace Corps volunteer⁠—who is the reason he moved to Oregon. They live on the west side of the Portland metro region. Their two children are now at college, but they still get together—although sometimes they roll their eyes when Matthew points out yet another super-cool insect that he found.

In January 2024, protests erupted across Nairobi, Kisumu and Mombasa as Kenyans demanded justice for women killed in a wave of femicides. The government promised action, launching a 90 day task force to deliver recommendations to President William Ruto. But that deadline has long passed and there's still no clear plan. BBC Africa Daily's Mpho Lakaje speaks to feminist activist Editar Ochieng and policy expert Kavinya Makau to explore why progress has stalled, what's happening behind the scenes and their thoughts on whether Kenya is truly committed to ending femicide.

Die queere Szene in Kenia steht unter Druck. Es gab Anti-LGBTQ-Proteste. Kenias Präsident William Ruto ist evangelikaler Christ. Aber Aktivistinnen wie Darling aus Mombasa oder der Journalist Kevin Mwachiro sehen die positivien Entwicklungen.

Le 11 mars, le Soudan a suspendu toutes les importations de produits kényans. Une mesure de représailles après que le Kenya a accueilli à Nairobi en février les Forces de soutien rapide (FSR), les paramilitaires opposés à l'armée régulière, et leurs alliés. Pour les producteurs kényans de thé, la sanction est lourde, car le Soudan fait partie des dix premières destinations d'export. Plus de 200 conteneurs de thé sont immobilisés. Selon l'EATT, l'association est-africaine du commerce du thé, 400 sacs destinés au Soudan sont bloqués dans le port de Mombasa ou sur des paquebots au large de Port-Soudan. Les pertes pourraient atteindre les 10 millions de dollars.George Omuga, président de l'EATT, demande aux autorités kényanes de trouver une solution diplomatique. Les professionnels voudraient qu'un délai d'un mois leur soit au moins accordé afin d'écouler les stocks de thé déjà engagés dans la chaîne d'approvisionnement.Brouille diplomatiqueMais la situation n'a pas l'air d'inquiéter William Ruto. Dans une interview à la télévision, la semaine dernière, le président kényan a assuré que son pays continuait de vendre son thé au Soudan. « C'est le marché lui-même qui l'oblige », explique-t-il. Une sortie qui a provoqué la colère de Port-Soudan. Dès le lendemain, son ambassade à Nairobi a publié un communiqué, pour remettre les points sur les i.Il est encore trop tôt pour évaluer l'impact de la suspension des importations soudanaises sur le secteur kényan du thé. Elles avaient déjà chuté de plus de 70 % depuis le début de la guerre en 2023, selon le Bureau du thé du Kenya. En 2022, elles avaient rapporté 37 millions de dollars.Vers de nouveaux marchésDans son rapport sur l'industrie 2024, le Bureau du thé du Kenya identifie de nouvelles pistes d'exportation, sur le continent. Parmi elles : le Tchad. Sans accès à la mer, c'est à travers le Soudan que ce pays sahélien s'approvisionnait jusque-là en thé.Mais les principales destinations du thé kényan se trouvent en dehors du continent : le Pakistan reste le premier marché, avec plus de 21 millions de kilos achetés l'année dernière.À lire aussiSuspension des importations kenyanes: le torchon brûle entre Khartoum et Nairobi

Ein Kapitel geht zu Ende und es hat Opfer gefordert. Am letzten Abend gelang es unserer heldenhaften Gruppe tatsächlich, Teil des Rituals um die Auferstehung von Nitocirs zu werden und diese zu vereiteln. Dies ging jedoch nicht ohne Opfer. Bei dem heldenhaften Einsatz starb sowohl Sophia Hapgood als auch Michael Muhammed Ibn Tulu Graham, der letzte Wächter. Unter dem Einsatz ihres Lebens verhinderten sie, dass Königin Nitocris zurück in Welt gelangt, ein schwerer Schlag für die Bruderschaft des Schwarzen Pharaos und den Kult der blutigen Zunge. Jakub Svoboda hat indessen einen rituellen Dolch erlangt, um Nitocris zu vernichten, vielleicht wird der an anderer Stelle nochmal nützlich. Da Kairo nun ein heißes Pflaster ist, sind sie so schnell als möglich auf ein Schiff nach Mombasa geflüchtet, wo sie Alexander van Salm empfängt, der ebenfalls versucht, mehr über die sogenannte Carlyle-Expedition herauszufinden. Es stehen an Bord der Perle von Kenia: Leo Anderson, gespielt von Gregor, Saleem Naziz, gespielt von Korn, Jakub Svoboda, gespielt von Manu  und Alexander van Salm, gespielt von Simon.

Selon une étude publiée récemment par le Bureau kényan des statistiques, la viande a généré près de 304 milliards de shillings kényans, soit environ 225 millions d'euros en 2023. La consommation de viande ne cesse d'augmenter, bien que les prix soient en hausse. De notre correspondante à Nairobi,Le Kenya a produit environ 557 000 tonnes de viande en 2023, soit une hausse de près de 20 % par rapport à l'année précédente. Un record. 65 % de cette viande est consommée localement, selon le Bureau kényan des statistiques. Le poulet reste la protéine préférée des Kényans, mais la viande rouge s'invite de plus en plus dans les assiettes. Sa consommation a augmenté de plus de 23 % en 2023, par rapport à l'année précédente. À lire aussiKenya: face à la sécheresse, la vie pastorale en danger [2/2]Consommation tirée par l'urbanisationCette hausse de la consommation de viande est d'autant plus remarquable que les prix, eux aussi, augmentent : plus 29 % sur ces cinq dernières années. Selon un rapport du bureau export du ministère néerlandais de l'Agriculture, le marché kényan est en pleine expansion grâce notamment à l'urbanisation, tirée par les deux grandes villes du pays : Nairobi et Mombasa. En 2019, 300 000 tonnes de viande manquaient pour répondre aux besoins nationaux.L'un des principaux enjeux reste celui de la structuration de la filière, poursuit l'enquête néerlandaise. Études de marché, abattoirs, chaîne du froid, restent encore de véritables défis. Mais le ministère néerlandais y voit une belle opportunité d'investissement.Vers l'exportationD'autant que la filière du bétail kényan se porte bien. Le nombre de têtes continue d'augmenter malgré les défis climatiques que rencontre le pays. 80 millions d'animaux ont été abattus en 2023, contre 66 millions en 2020.Certains acteurs se sont même lancés dans l'exportation de viande. C'est le cas de la Commission kényane de la viande, le plus important abattoir du Kenya et de la Corne. Elle exporte 500 tonnes de viande de chèvre, de mouton et de bœuf par an. Ses principaux marchés se trouvent en Afrique comme l'Égypte, le Soudan, la Tanzanie ou encore le Liberia. La Commission kényane de la viande vend aussi au Proche-Orient et même en Malaisie.À écouter dans Le débat du jourFaut-il arrêter de manger de la viande ?

There was a pūjārī here for many years, taking care of this Deity, and something amazing happened to him that increased his faith a million-fold in Advaita Ācārya. Should I say what it is? He was sitting here one day, and he saw Westerners come here. They were chanting just like we were when we came in, and they were offering obeisances to Advaita Ācārya and walking over. It was the first time he had ever seen Western people come here. And he approached one of them and said, "Who are you? Where did you come from?" And they said, "Oh, we're disciples of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda." The man broke into tears, and he said, "He did it, he did it." And then he told them the story that one day, when he was here in this lonely place because not many people used to come here, he saw a sādhu all alone come here, sit down, and was praying all day long here. He approached him and asked him who he was and what he was doing. This sādhu told him that, "My spiritual master has given me an impossible assignment, at least in my life I don't see how it's possible because I'm now approaching seventy years old, and he asked me to go to the West to teach Kṛṣṇa consciousness to the Westerners. And he said I have no money. I'm trying to get passage on a ship to go to America, and I have to fulfill the order of My Spiritual Master, but I'm not sure how it will happen. I just know I have to do it, and therefore I've come here to pray to Advaita Ācārya, who's the one who inaugurated the Krishna Consciousness Movement by inviting Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu." That man never saw that sādhu again, ever, until these Westerners came back here and showed him a picture of the Back to Godhead magazine. There was Prabhupāda with his international movement. He had reached every continent of the world, and people everywhere were chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa. He had opened 108 temples, and that Bhagavad-gītā class, just like Advaita Ācārya had started here hundreds of years ago, was now going on in Des Moines, Iowa; London, Mombasa, Toledo, Siberia, San Francisco, Bolivia - La Paz, Argentina, Toronto. I mean, there's a huge community in Toronto. How did it get there? It started here with Prabhupāda's prayers, and we can go on all day, shouting out cities, and we'll know that it's there. The Bhagavad-gītā, as it is, is being taught in all these places. So this There was a pūjārī here for many years, taking care of this Deity, and something amazing happened to him that increased his faith a million-fold in Advaita Ācārya. Should I say what it is?

And he said I have no money. I'm trying to get passage on a ship to go to America, and I have to fulfill the order of My Spiritual Master, but I'm not sure how it will happen. I just know I have to do it, and therefore I've come here to pray to Advaita Ācārya, who's the one who inaugurated the Krishna Consciousness Movement by inviting Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu."

En Guinée, la transition devait s'achever ce mardi 31 décembre 2024, mais le gouvernement a confirmé, il y a trois semaines, que la date butoir ne serait pas tenue. MediaGuinée rapporte les demandes du CPA, le Collectif des partis pour l'alternance, collectif décrit par le site d'info comme « pacifique contrairement aux Forces Vives de Guinée » et qui donnait une conférence de presse, lundi 30 décembre 2024. Il souhaite une élection présidentielle « d'ici fin juin », « pour que le nouveau président puisse prêter serment en 2026 ».« Alpha Condé attaque le CNRD », titre de son côté Le Djély, qui partage le discours de l'ancien président, dans lequel il dénonce des  « privations de liberté injustifiées », une « militarisation excessive des rues de la capitale » et une « usurpation du pouvoir démocratique ». « Jamais depuis Sekou Touré la Guinée n'a connu une telle vague de répression », regrette de son côté le romancier guinéen Tierno Monénembo au Monde Afrique. Il déplore aussi le « silence assourdissant » de la communauté internationale sur la situation dans son pays, avant de conclure :« les démocrates africains sont bien seuls aujourd'hui  ». Guinée : les journaux commentent l'arrestation de l'opposant Aliou BahPoursuivi pour offense au chef de l'État, l'opposant guinéen Aliou Bah a été interpellé le 26 décembre 2024. Guinéenews publie une photo de ce dernier, sortant d'un « pick-up de la gendarmerie » pour être entendu par le procureur, au tribunal de Conakry. « Après plus d'une heure », raconte le site d'info, l'opposant est emmené en détention « à la prison centrale ». « Aliou Bah en prison » titre Afrique-sur7 qui assure qu'après avoir été entendu par le procureur, « le leader politique affichait un sentiment de sérénité ». Guinée7 publie de son côté le communiqué du MoDeL, le parti d'Aliou Bah, qui affirme que son procès s'ouvre ce mardi 31 décembre 204 et qui appelle à un rassemblement devant le tribunal.Quelles futures relations entre la Cédéao et l'AES ?« Une rupture évitable, des erreurs impardonnables », titre Seneplus à Dakar. Le média sénégalais espère que l'actuel président de la Cédéao, Bola Tinubu, président nigérian, prenne « une initiative exceptionnelle d'apaisement » avec l'Alliance des États du Sahel, la nouvelle organisation sous-régionale. L'édito sous-entend qu'il faudrait supprimer les sanctions contre les trois juntes. « Il ne suffit pas de brandir des sanctions pour imposer la démocratie », sermonne-t-il, car elles « méprise[nt] l'attachement profond des populations à la liberté de circulation, un des piliers de la Cédéao ». Il faut que cette dernière, au contraire, « réaffirme son rôle de médiateur », juge Seneplus, qui appelle « à l'unité et à la réconciliation ». Kenya : manifestations contre la vague d'enlèvements« Gaz lacrymogènes, matraques : les Kényans se déversent dans les rues lors d'un jour de rage », titre The Standard. Depuis plusieurs mois, le pays est troublé par une vague d'enlèvements de jeunes Kényans, qui ont tous le point commun d'avoir critiqué le pouvoir sur les réseaux sociaux. Les manifestations de lundi 30 décembre 2024 ont été violemment réprimées. « L'année se termine comme elle a commencé », poursuit The Standard qui évoque plusieurs mois marqués par « les brutalités policières ». Nation, autre journal kényan, précise qu'« au moins vingt manifestants, dont un sénateur en exercice, un ancien candidat à la présidence et des dizaines de défenseurs des droits humains ont été arrêtés  à "Nairobi, Mombasa et Eldoret ».

I came across Fatma's work on Instagram from a comment she left on one of my posts. We got to chatting and I knew I wanted to learn more from her. I know so little about East African henna and thought that others might be as curious as I am to know more.  A little bit more about Fatma:   Tima of Simply Gorgeous Henna (instagram: @simply_gorgeous_henna) provides professional body art services and products to conscious beauties in Mombasa and the surrounding areas. Natural henna and jagua are grounding expressions of our feminine energies, and Tima celebrates this timeless tradition with modern design infusions, empowering women to safely indulge in this ancient art form that first landed in East Africa between 1,000 and 2,000 years ago. She is inspired by henna as a medium that intersects beauty, art, and culture, and has been a life-long lover of this remarkable plant medicine that transcends borders and unites conscious beauties all over the world.   Tima speaks about how much she learned from Noam Sienna (we have an interview with him, if you're interested in learning more) Tima refers to Noam's blogpost, where she found historical photos: https://eshkolhakofer.blogspot.com/2015/11/cloves-and-kohl-henna-traditions-on.html

Not having enough money to buy period products is a major problem for women and girls around the world. The Kenyan government is considered a global leader in access to sanitary products repealing added taxes on pads and tampons in 2004, and passing a law in 2017 to make period products free for school girls. And one charity is helping disabled women in the coastal city of Mombasa earn a living by making reusable period pads.

In the final episode of Lagos to Mombasa, Gyude reflects on some major topics and takeaways from the past three years and calls for better climate mitigation and adaptation measures for Africa.

Dotting East Africa's Swahili coast, Zanzibar, Lamu and Mombasa are synonymous with pristine waters and white sandy beaches. But many tourists are unaware that these UNESCO World Heritage Sites were the scene of a gruesome chapter in history. For centuries, the Swahili coast was central to the slave trade.

Anna discusses the types of child trafficking crimes in Kenya and how the court system there deals with defendants accused of such crimes. She also addresses the importance of collaboration and partnerships in achieving international legal goals – in this case protecting children. She also goes into some of the complexities of digital evidence and how the IJM and its partners were able to educate investigators, prosecutors, and even courts in Kenya on its use.

Nikita has started an online group called “Esquires Abroad” for lawyers who have virtual practices and live abroad (https://www.linkedin.com/groups/12974315).Segment 3:Adventure is Out There: Enjoying Geographic Freedom While Maintaining a Successful Law PracticeArati Bhattacharya of AB Law (https://ab-firm.com/meet-the-team/) talks with new Behind-the-Lines interviewer Rinku Ray about how Arati structured her firm so that her family can engage in immersive travel experiences while she maintains a successful legal practice in Houston.

« Deuil, douleur et chagrin », lance le Standard à Nairobi après la terrible répression policière des manifestations d'avant-hier. Des manifestations qui « ont fait au moins 23 morts dans tout le pays, pointe le journal, dont 18 à Nairobi, et 1 à Mombasa, Isiolo et Kakamega. Des chiffres fournis par la Commission nationale des droits de l'homme du Kenya. »Finalement, poursuit le Standard, « après des semaines de grandiloquence, le président William Ruto a cédé hier à la pression populaire, en choisissant de ne pas signer le projet de loi de finances controversé, à l'origine des manifestations dans tout le pays après son adoption au Parlement. »Alors « que va-t-il se passer maintenant ? » s'interroge le quotidien kényan. « Le projet de loi de finance est renvoyé à l'Assemblée nationale », mais les députés sont « actuellement en vacances. (…) Une session extraordinaire du Parlement devra donc être convoquée. Et une majorité des deux tiers sera nécessaire pour annuler le projet. »Sur la sellette…Reste que les plaies sociales sont profondes… Lors des manifestations de ces derniers jours, note Le Monde Afrique, « des pancartes ont grimé les députés en “cochons“, eux qui figurent parmi les parlementaires les mieux payés au monde. L'exécutif n'a pas été épargné, surtout le président William Ruto, élu il y a deux ans en promettant des millions d'emplois et une vie moins chère.Ce riche homme d'affaires, parti de rien, rappelle le journal, s'est érigé en incarnation des “hustlers“, ce petit peuple des débrouillards qui forment l'essentiel de l'économie. Mais depuis son arrivée au pouvoir en 2022, il a multiplié les nouvelles taxes pour faire face à la dette (67 % du PIB). Au point que le très pieux Ruto est désormais surnommé “Zakayo“, du nom de Zachée, un opiniâtre collecteur d'impôts de la Bible. « “Ruto must go“ (“Ruto doit partir“), clament les manifestants. »La colère va-t-elle retomber ?Et Le Monde Afrique de s'interroger : « dans ce contexte, le retrait de la loi budgétaire suffira-t-il à calmer la colère ? Après le Parlement, la prochaine mobilisation appelait initialement à “occuper la State House“, le Palais présidentiel, ce jeudi. Hier, avant même le retrait de la loi, des organisateurs insistaient plutôt sur une marche blanche en mémoire des victimes. « C'est une victoire pour le pays, mais ce n'est évidemment pas la fin », estime un activiste interrogé par le journal, « qui ira marcher aujourd'hui “pour les vies perdues“. L'attention pourrait se détourner de la résidence officielle – récemment rénovée – de William Ruto. Mais ce dernier doit maintenant trouver les centaines de millions de dollars qui manquent à son budget. »Guinée : la mort mystérieuse d'un général emprisonné…À la Une également, la Guinée, avec la mort du général Sadiba Koulibaly, l'ancien chef d'état-major général des armées…Le général Koulibaly est mort alors qu'il était en prison. Il avait été récemment « condamné, rétrogradé et radié ! », rappelle le site d'information Guinée 7, « pour détention illégale d'armes et désertion à l'étranger. » Il serait mort d'une crise cardiaque.« À la prise du pouvoir par le CNRD en septembre 2021, il avait joué un rôle de premier plan, rappelle Africa Guinée, ce qui lui avait même valu le titre de numéro 2 du Pouvoir militaire. Il avait commencé à tomber en disgrâce à partir de mai 2023, lorsqu'il avait été démis de ses fonctions de chef d'état-major général des armées, puis nommé ministre de l'Urbanisme, avant d'être limogé le lendemain de sa nomination. »« L'étrange mort de Sadiba Koulibaly », pointe pour sa part Jeune Afrique. « En saura-t-on davantage sur les circonstances de son décès et, si oui, cela suffira-t-il à dissiper le doute ? », s'interroge le site panafricain.« Une mort et moult interrogations », lance le quotidien Aujourd'hui à Ouagadougou. « De quoi cet officier supérieur très respecté de l'armée était-il vraiment accusé ? Quelle est la nature de sa brouille avec son ancien allié, le président Doumbouya ? Le soupçonne-t-on d'avoir voulu attenter à la sûreté de l'État ? Pourquoi, selon les avocats, on fait de la résistance pour restituer le corps ? Un décès et une kyrielle de questions qui font que beaucoup veulent en savoir davantage ! »En tout cas, relève Le Monde Afrique, « son décès survient dans une période de forte crispation intérieure, au moment où l'opposition critique un exercice du pouvoir autoritaire et solitaire par le général Mamadi Doumbouya, aujourd'hui investi Président. »

So you keep on pushing and pushing until it comes into their senses and they get to realize they need to conserve." - 00:00:35 "We know that the enemy is carbon, and we know its ugly face. We should put a big fat price on it, and of course, add to that, drop the subsidies." - 00:01:29 "Mangroves shield the coast from storms and erosion, provide habitat for baby fish, and pull carbon dioxide from the atmosphere at a rate about 10 times higher per hectare than terrestrial forests do." - 00:01:57 "But you quickly realized that the cost of even conservative harvesting, in terms of reduced protection, increased erosion, and plummeting fish stocks, not to mention climate impacts, dwarfed any income that people could get from timber sales." - 00:03:23 "We are trying to tap into new areas. We also have a program that focuses on ecotourism. We want to venture into that." - 00:07:32 "The investors are the partners who adopted sites. Like corporate? Even individual." - 00:12:51 "It's not really about being philanthropic, but just being reality, to be alive to the fact that conservation is a process." - 00:13:24 "We are not interested in those huge chunks of plants for restoration. If the size of this room, which you can adopt, is enough to facilitate sustainability into the ecosystem, then let's apply it." - 00:24:03 "The finance will come. That's what I keep telling myself about this show." - 00:27:17 "You want to protect that ecosystem.

It's Friday, April 12th, A.D. 2024. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Former Muslim unable to provide for her children Halima and her three children are part of a group of Somali Christians in Mombasa, Kenya who face persecution, reports International Christian Concern. After Halima left her Muslim faith to follow Christ in 2012, she kept her faith secret for five years. Following her baptism in 2017, her Muslim husband Osman and other family members discovered that she had left Islam. Osman divorced Halima, forcing her to relocate to another part of Mombasa. Despite living discreetly, Halima's Christian activities were uncovered. In May 2023, their home was targeted twice by Muslim assailants, though they were unsuccessful. They accused Halima of leading Muslims astray and labeled her a “Christian crusader.” The combination of unemployment and ongoing harassment left Halima struggling to provide for her children. Consequently, they were forced to drop out of school earlier this year due to unpaid fees. When International Christian Concern learned about Halima's case in October 2023, they provided the funds to send her children back to school. Halima said, “My children had no hope of continuing with school for this year. I kept trusting God, and He surely came through for me.” She asks that you pray that more Somali Muslims come to faith in Christ.  In John 3:3, Jesus said, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." In addition to praying for their conversion, you can provide funds to help other persecuted Christians like Halima through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. Muslim Americans chant “Death to America” in Dearborn, Michigan A video of an anti-Israel activist in Dearborn, Michigan prompted Muslims to chant "Death to America" and "Death to Israel" in their Arabic language. MUSLIM CROWD: “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” (in Arabic) Last Friday, Tarek Bazzi, who is associated with the Hadi Institute, gave a speech at an International Al-Quds Day rally, an annual pro-Palestinian event held on the last Friday of Ramadan. BAZZI: “Malcolm X said, and I quote, ‘We live in one of the rottenness countries that has ever existed on this earth.' It's not Genocide Joe that has to go. It's the entire system that has to go. Any system that would allow such atrocities and such devilry to happen, and would support it, such a system does not deserve to exist on God's Earth.” As it turns out, Bazzi has a history of espousing violent rhetoric, reports Fox News. Back in 2021, Bazzi can be heard using violent rhetoric towards Israel and Jewish people while speaking to a group of protesters. He said, "Understand what these slogans mean. 'From the river to the sea' means the absolute annihilation of the Zionist regime. It is absolute evil. It is a cancer in the Middle East and in the world. There is no way to deal peacefully with such an entity.” Muslim Congresswoman vs. White House on anti-American chanters Listen to the encounter that Fox News reporter Hillary Vaughn had with Democratic Muslim Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib of Michigan when she asked for the Congresswoman's reaction to the “Death to America” chant in her district. VAUGHN: “Congresswoman Tlaib?” TLAIB: “I don't talk to Fox News. I don't talk to Fox News” VAUGHN: “At a rally in your district, people were chanting ‘Death to America.' Do you condemn …” TLAIB: “I do not talk to Fox News.” VAUGHN: “But do you condemn chants of ‘Death to America'?” TLAIB: “I don't talk to people that use racist tropes.” VAUGHN: “Why can't you just say whether or not you condemn people chanting death to America? Why are you afraid to talk to Fox?” TLAIB: “Fox News is not. Listen, using racist tropes towards my community is what Fox News is about. I don't talk to Fox News.” VAUGHN: “Is death to America racist? Is chanting ‘Death to America' racist?” TLAIB: “Talk about your guys's racist tropes.” By contrast, the White House condemned the “Death to America” chant in Dearborn, Michigan. Listen to Karine Jean-Pierre, the White House Press Secretary. JEAN-PIERRE: “We will condemn any, any violent rhetoric and we've been very consistent about denouncing that type of, that type of rhetoric. Any type of violent rhetoric, we are going to denounce.” O.J. Simpson died O.J. Simpson, the former football great who was accused of and ultimately acquitted of the brutal 1994 slayings of his ex-wife and her friend, has died, according to his family, reports ABC News. He was 76. On June 12, 1994, Simpson's ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman, were brutally stabbed to death outside of her home in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Brentwood. Within days, police announced their intention to arrest the former football star for the murders. Five days after the killings, 95 million Americans watched as Simpson's white Ford Bronco – with longtime friend Al Cowlings at the wheel and Simpson in the back seat with a handgun, threatening to kill himself – led police on a 60-mile, low-speed televised chase through Los Angeles that lasted two hours. Simpson ultimately surrendered to police and stood trial for the murders. In October 1995, after 11 months from jury selection to verdict, Simpson was acquitted. Though he was acquitted on the criminal charges, the families of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman filed a civil suit against Simpson. he was ordered to pay a total of $33.5 million in damages. Despite years of efforts, the families were only able to collect from Simpson a fraction of the damages the jury awarded. Two women injured by abortion in one day And finally, on Wednesday, April 10th, Abortion Free New Mexico volunteers documented two abortion-related injuries on the same day at the University of New Mexico Center For Reproductive Health abortion mill. This is the eighth abortion injury documented there since Abortion Free New Mexico launched the daily sidewalk prayer initiative, No Sidewalk Without The Savior in April 2022.  The first abortion injury occurred at 2:30pm. A fire engine, police car, and two ambulances were photographed onsite and a woman was wheeled out of the abortion mill on a gurney and placed in an ambulance. Shockingly, the second abortion injury was documented just an hour and a half later at 4:00pm! Both women were taken to a local emergency room after having likely experienced a botched abortion injury. First and second trimester abortions are performed up to  six months of pregnancy at this location. Tara Shaver with Abortion Free New Mexico, said, ​"Abortion at any stage of pregnancy is a brutally violent act. Precious unborn children pay the ultimate price with their lives. But many times, as documented twice [on Wednesday], women sustain life-threatening injuries because abortions are incredibly invasive and unnatural.” She added that pro-abortion advocates “do not care about women's health. They just demand unrestricted abortion regardless of the life threatening consequences." In Proverbs 6:17, we learn that one of the seven things that God hates are the “hands that shed innocent blood.” Close And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Friday, April 12th in the year of our Lord 2024. Subscribe by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

Africa with its rich arts and crafts have so much to offer to the world. We are excited to find online or in a nearby store a unique, one of a kind piece from a land far away. But we should pause to think as to how much of what we pay actually goes back to the artisans and their communities. Today we talk with Jenny Nuccio, Founder and CEO of Imani Collective - Global Social Enterprise Empowering Artisans, who wanted to not only promote the art from Kenya, but make sure that the artisans are paid two to three times the average wage and gain access for their art. She joins us from Mombasa, Kenya sharing her life's mission to provide a fair and living wage to the folks who work alongside her. Learn more in the latest episode of Mindful Businesses.

Angolan President João Lourenço kicked off a three-day visit to China this week that will take him to Beijing and Shandong Province. The timing of Lourenço's trip comes as the Chinese economy is facing enormous challenges amid a plunge in FDI, surging youth unemployment and much slower growth. The easy Chinese money for African leaders is no longer there and that may not be a bad thing, says Gyude Moore from the Center for Global Development in Washington, D.C. Gyude wrote a column this month that said a slowing Chinese economy could force a lot of African governments to initiate badly-needed reforms. Gyude joins Eric & Geraud to discuss his somewhat contrarian view on the rapidly changing China-Africa relationship.
