We unwrap the magic of the flamboyant Eyo Festival in Lagos, the electrifying Calabar Carnival (Africa's Biggest Street Party), the thrilling Argungu Fishing Festival, and the bountiful New Yam Festival. Plus, we touch on other significant events like the spiritual Osun-Osogbo Festival, the ancestral Egungun Festival, the powerful Sango Festival, and the unique Igogo Festival. Beyond the celebrations, we playfully explore the true origins of figures like Osun and Sango – are they DC/Marvel characters or revered Yoruba Orishas? We also take a historical detour to the monumental FESTAC '77, a landmark event in African arts and culture, and recall the leaders who shaped Nigeria's past.

Jared and Anne Ladyem (anneladyem.com) reach the final filler episode of original Inuyasha as Kirara reflects about the past.

Willy Pabst is an outspoken German who fell under Africa's spell as a young man and decided he needed to make it a part of him. Over the intervening years, he found a property called Sango in the Save Valley in Zimbabwe.  He eventually purchased the property, which has formed one of the most important, iconic examples of hunter-led conservation in the world. Willy joins the Our Voice series to discuss what we do in this era where we actually have TOO MANY elephants and too little habitat. Willie discusses his view from the front lines of that debate - and gives us his unvarnished opinion.

RFI vous parle de deux villes collées l'une à l'autre, traversées par une rivière, l'Oubangui et séparées par une frontière. Ces villes sont Zongo la congolaise, située en face de la capitale centrafricaine Bangui. Créée 1971 à l'époque du Maréchal Mobutu, la ville de Zongo compte plus de 130.000 habitants avec une superficie d'environ 450 km². Située dans le Sud-Ubangui, elle se trouve en face de Bangui, capitale de la République centrafricaine, une ville cosmopolite d'environ 1 500 000 habitants. Même si les deux villes sont naturellement séparées par la rivière Oubangui, elles sont très liées sur le plan culturel. Les habitants des deux territoires partagent les mêmes langues et les mêmes modes de vie.  De notre correspondant à Bangui,Des pas de danse rythmés par des balafons et tam-tams pour le bonheur de la foule. Ce matin à l'espace culturel Bon Coin du Pêcheur installé à Zongo, le groupe de danse MAÏMA livre un spectacle hors du commun.Pieds nus, habillements traditionnels, les jeunes danseurs portent des couronnes de plumes, des perles, des coquillages et même des peaux de bêtes. Michel Lobota est le responsable de ce centre culturel. « Chez nous, au Bon Coin du Pêcheur, nous donnons l'opportunité aux deux peuples de partager les activités culturelles telles que des concerts musicaux, des activités, des contes et des théâtres. Et il nous arrive des week-ends, des fois, d'organiser des karaokés, des musiciens qui viennent de Bangui qui viennent jouer au Bon Coin du Pêcheur. Nous donnons aussi nos instruments au groupe folklorique pour faire des productions pour le bien-être de la population de Zongo et de Bangui. »À lire aussiÀ Zongo, on prend la pirogue pour aller à l'école [1/3]« Quand je viens ici, je me sens comme à la maison »Le public regarde avec admiration un joueur de balafon qui se distingue avec sa sonorité traditionnelle. Assis sur un banc localement appelé Balambo, il frappe l'instrument au moyen de deux baguettes recouvertes de caoutchouc. Paulette Belinda qui vient de la République centrafricaine reconnaît la culture des Ngbaka, son groupe ethnique. « Quand je viens ici, je me sens comme à la maison. Nous avons la même culture, les mêmes types de nourritures, de boissons, de religions et on s'habille de la même manière. C'est impressionnant. »Non loin de là, Ismaël Samba, un Centrafricain de trente ans, discute avec ses amis en montrant son doigt avec un large sourire. « Je me suis marié à une habitante d'ici, voici la bague. Tantôt, on est ici, tantôt là-bas. Les riverains qui vivent ici, on les retrouve également de l'autre côté. »Un jumelage culturel et socio-économiqueL'une des particularités qui renforcent les liens entre les deux villes, c'est la langue. De part et d'autre, on parle le français, le lingala et le sango. Blaise Mundemba est chargé de communication à la mairie de Zongo. « Les langues font souvent les forces d'un peuple. Sango, lingala, ça fait la fierté des deux villes. C'est facile pour l'intégration. Parce que le peuple qui quitte Bangui pour Zongo parle Lingala. Le peuple qui quitte Zongo pour Bangui parle sango. »Un accord de jumelage a été signé entre la mairie de Bangui et celle de Zongo en 2021. Cet accord permet aujourd'hui d'encadrer la bonne marche des activités socio-économiques et culturelles.

Il a grandi en Centrafrique, traversé les guerres, et choisi de répondre par la créativité. Teddy Kossoko, 30 ans, utilise les jeux vidéo pour raconter l'Afrique autrement. Mais créer ne suffit plus. L'entrepreneur installé à Toulouse poursuit désormais un objectif plus vaste : bâtir un marché du jeu vidéo africain. Pour lui, il faut aussi pouvoir vendre, localement. Portrait d'un entrepreneur engagé. La mission de Teddy Kossoko : reconnecter les Africains à leur histoire et casser les clichés. Une ambition qui le pousse à créer Masseka Game Studio en 2018. « "Masseka" dans ma langue natale, Sango, veut dire "jeune, jeunesse". Pour moi Masseka, c'est un moyen de raconter l'Afrique. D'abord aux Africains, car la plupart des Africains ne connaissent pas le continent africain. Ensuite raconter l'Afrique au reste du monde, pour que les gens puissent connaître l'Afrique au-delà de la colonisation et de l'esclavage. Qui colle aujourd'hui à la peau des Africains, on n'est pas que cela », raconte-t-il.Ses jeux s'inspirent des cultures africaines. Kissoro, par exemple, revisite l'awalé, ce jeu de stratégie traditionnel, pour en faire un outil de paix. « C'est un jeu avec des pions et des cases. À l'époque, je voulais promouvoir la paix entre deux royaumes », se souvient-il. La Centrafrique à l'époque est en guerre, et Teddy Kossoko choisit la créativité comme arme politique. Le succès est au rendez-vous : plus de 50 000 téléchargements. Puis vient La Légende de Mulu, un jeu d'aventure pédagogique, mais un problème persiste. Ses jeux se vendent partout sauf en Afrique.Les grandes plateformes comme Google imposent des cartes bancaires et empêchent les créateurs africains de vendre localement. Pour contourner ces blocages, Teddy Kossoko lance Gara, une boutique en ligne pensée pour l'Afrique. Elle centralise les contenus et utilise le mobile money pour simplifier l'achat. « L'idée, c'est : j'arrive, j'ai 100 francs CFA, je paie avec mon mobile money et j'accède aux contenus. Ça aide les créateurs à générer des revenus », explique-t-il.Mais pour lui, l'enjeu dépasse l'économie. « J'ai vécu deux guerres. La première guerre que j'ai vécue, j'ai vu d'enfants soldats venir chez nous et tout casser. Je me suis posé la question : pourquoi sont-ils devenus des enfants soldats ?, s'interroge-t-il. Quand tu travailles et que tu as un emploi, tu ne vas pas prendre les armes. Il faut qu'on arrive à avoir suffisamment des chaînes de valeur pour que les jeunes eux-mêmes génèrent des revenus et vivent de ça. »Derrière ses jeux, Teddy Kossoko défend un combat : bâtir une industrie capable de créer des emplois. Car stabiliser les sociétés passe aussi par là.À écouter aussiGabino Guerengomba pour «IST» et Teddy Kossoko pour «Masseka Game Studio»

In 2014, a well-trained, mysterious band of mercenaries arrived in Ukraine, part of Russia's first attempt to claim the country as its own. Upon ceasefire, the “Wagner Group” faded back into shadow, only to reemerge in the Middle East, where they'd go toe-to-toe with the U.S., and in Africa, where they'd earn praise for “tough measures” against insurgencies yet spark outrage for looting, torture, and civilian deaths. As Russia gained a foothold of influence abroad, Wagner founder Yevgeny Prigozhin, known as “Putin's Chef,” went from caterer to commander to single greatest threat Putin has faced in his over-twenty-year rule. Dually armed with military and strategic prowess, the Wagner Group created a new market in a vast geopolitical landscape increasingly receptive to the promises of private actors. In this trailblazing account of the Group's origins and operations, Death Is Our Business: Russian Mercenaries and the New Era of Private Warfare (Bloomsbury Publishing, 2025) by John Lechner-the only journalist to report across its many warzones-brings us on the ground to witness Wagner partner with fragile nation states, score access to natural resources, oust peacekeeping missions, and cash in on conflicts reframed as Kremlin interests. After rebelling, Prigozhin faced an epic demise-but Wagner lives on, its political, business, and military ventures a pillar of Russian operations the world over. Featuring exclusive interviews with over thirty Wagner Group members, Death Is Our Business is the terrifying true tale of the renegade militia that proved global instability is nothing if not an opportunity. John Lechner is a journalist and an independent researcher and consultant to NGOs and other institutions working in Africa. He holds a master's degree in foreign service from Georgetown University. He speaks Russian, French, Turkish, Georgian, Chechen, Sango, and more.

The international war reporter John Lechner is a brave man. For his new book Death Is Our Business: Russian Mercenaries and the New Era of Private Warfare, he spent time in both Russia and the Central African Republic researching the Russian mercenary Wagner Group founded by Yevgeny Prigozhin. In our conversation, he details Prigozhin's rise, his rebellion against Putin, and his eventual death. Lechner argues that mercenary groups like Wagner are generally no more or less bloodthirsty than the governments that employ them. We also talked about the broader global trend of outsourcing warfare, from Russian mercenaries to U.S. contractors like Blackwater, and how this approach reduces political costs for governments engaging in military interventions.Here are the 5 KEEN ON AMERICA takeaways from the Lechner interview:* Wagner Group represents a broader trend of privatized warfare, following in the footsteps of Western contractors like Blackwater but expanding into offensive operations.* Yevgeny Prigozhin's personal ambition and desire to overcome his status within Putin's inner circle drove Wagner's expansion globally.* Mercenary groups like Wagner typically mirror the human rights practices of the governments that hire them, often exacerbating existing abuses rather than introducing new ones.* Prigozhin's rebellion against Putin stemmed from his narcissism and fear of losing political leverage when the Ministry of Defense attempted to absorb Wagner's fighters.* The outsourcing of warfare (through mercenaries, proxies, or technology) allows governments to pursue interventionist policies with reduced political costs, as contractor deaths don't receive the same public scrutiny as military casualties.John Lechner graduated from the Master of Science in Foreign Service (MSFS) Program at Georgetown University's School of Foreign Service. At Georgetown, John focused on security issues in Central Africa and the Sahel; Turkey; Russia, and the former Soviet Union. He is an expert on Russia's growing influence in Africa. He speaks fluent Russian; advanced French, Turkish, and Georgian; and conversational Bosnian-Croatian-Serbian (BCS), Chechen, German, and Sango (the lingua franca of the Central African Republic). After working in finance for several years, John decided to leverage his language skills and significant experience living abroad—especially in Russia and Europe—for a career in international affairs. After arriving in Washington DC, he took an internship with the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD), analyzing and publishing articles on Turkish domestic politics, security, and foreign relations. While attending Georgetown he has continued to work as a freelance journalist, covering issues related to language, history, culture, and politics in eastern Ukraine, Moldova, Turkey, the Sahel, and the Central African Republic. He is an expert on the history, languages, and politics of Central Africa, Turkey, and the former Soviet Union. You can find his articles published in Foreign Policy, War on the Rocks, Kyiv Post, The Diplomat, Africa is a Country, African Arguments, The National Interest, and Defense One, among others.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators.

Ad Astra Travelers and welcome to Tales of Teyvat: A Genshin Lore Podcast. This week, we're discussing our second favorite detective in all of Teyvat (right after Detective Paimon), Shikanoin Heizou! Our hosts start by discussing Heizou's traumatic childhood with an overbearing father and, you guessed it, a dead friend! Afterwards, we'll discuss Heizou's new life mission of stopping crime doers before they can even commit a crime! From opening up a detective agency with Sango and their fallout, to his eventual application to join the Tenryou Commission as a Doushin, Heizou has seen his fair share of hardships in abiding to this life mission.  We review his involvement in the Akitsu Kimodameshi Event, Iridescent Arataki Rockin' for Life Tour de Force of Awesomeness Event, and of course the contents of Heizou's hangout. In the end, we all just want to give this young Doushin a hug! Grab your magnifying glass and help us search for all the clues in this week's episode!

On this episode of the Story of the gods podcast, we unravel a tale of divine intrigue and mistaken identity. Set in the ancient land of Ile-Ife, the story begins with Obatala, the revered god of the earth and humans, embarking on a journey to visit Sango, the formidable god of thunder and lightning. Despite warnings from the diviner Orunmila, Obatala's determination leads him into a perilous trap. Along the way, Obatala encounters Esu, a notorious trickster god known for his mischievous schemes. Esu's cunning manipulations leave Obatala's pristine garments stained and his reputation tarnished. When Obatala finally reaches Sango's home, his appearance and possession of Sango's horse lead to his wrongful imprisonment. Will Obatala ever be freed from his unjust imprisonment? Can the land be saved from the brink of disaster? Join us as we uncover the shocking truth behind Obatala's ordeal and witness the epic showdown between the gods.

Like other global frontiers, the Cambodia-Vietnam borderlands are a hotspot for migration, land claims, and markets for newly introduced commodities. These topics and more are the focus of Sango Mahanty's recent book, Unsettled Frontiers: Market Formation in the Cambodia-Vietnam Borderlands (Cornell University Press, 2022). The book argues that frontier agricultural markets emerge from diverse commodity networks that constitute a dynamic and disruptive market ‘rhizome.' In this podcast, Sango addresses several related themes, including: the relationship between frontiers and borderlands in this region; the role of rural migration and land-claiming in frontier markets; the nexus between market formation and state formation; and what it means to think ‘rhizomically' about frontier markets. Sango also touches on how these insights translate to ongoing processes of social and environmental change, such as those imposed by climate change. Sango Mahanty is Professor in the Resources, Environment, and Development Program at the ANU Crawford School of Public Policy. Sango is a critical geographer who studies the politics of green economies, frontier markets and nature-society transformations in Cambodia and Vietnam. Professor Michele Ford is the Director of the Sydney Southeast Asia Centre, a university-wide multidisciplinary center at the University of Sydney, Australia. Learn more about your ad choices.

Richard Okello is CEO and Co-founder at Sango Capital, an investment firm he founded 10 years ago that has a particular focus on investing in Africa.  He previously was a principal at Makena Capital, and prior to that in a series of roles at Bridgewater Associates. He sits on several fund advisory boards, portfolio company boards as well as the boards of the African Leadership Foundation and Human Horizons Foundation.Our conversation starts with reflections on Richard's extraordinary upbringing in Uganda, where as a young boy he started arbitraging the price of chickens at 12 years old, then campaigned for and succeeded in the abolition of caning in his school.  His predisposition for adventure continued when he attended Swarthmore College in the US and took on an extra strenuous workload, and then the demands on his time were amplified when he became the legal guardian to his three young sisters, when still in his teens himself.  Juggling these extraordinary duties and his new duties as a parent led to a zealous career focus and he found a welcome home in Bridgewater Associates, which was his first foray into the world of finance of investing.We spend some time discussing the work environment there at Bridgewater, which is known for its radical candor, and learn how this was a good fit for him.  We turn then to his move into the newly founded Makena Capital, an outsourced CIO, and how this was the foundation for his interest in investing in Africa.We discuss Sango Capital then and its origins, and how the opportunity set presents in Africa and how ESG considerations are woven in from the outset. Finally we turn to his reflections on his career so far, how his faith grounds him and where he expects the opportunities to invest in Africa will lie in the years ahead.Series 1 of 2023 is brought to you with the kind support of HarbourView Equity Partners, a global investment firm focused on opportunities in the entertainment and media space.

CFTROU 0159: The Power Of The Neighborhood Church: A Conversation With Pastor Freddy T. Wyatt Today, on Church For the Rest of Us, we speak with Pastor Freddy T. Wyatt from Real Life Church in Clarksville, Tennessee, as we continue our series of conversations about the power of the neighborhood church. Freddy T. is a passionate preacher of God's word, and a risk-taking, baseball-loving, espresso-drinking, old-book-hunting husband and dad! In this episode, we get a glimpse into Freddy T's journey and how he came to plant a new church in the Sango area of Clarksville. We take a look at his Who's Your Three initiative, which uses the concept of neighborhood mapping to help you invest deeply in the three people that God has put right in front of you, rather than spreading yourself too thin. We discuss the importance of community presence, his focus on relational and spiritual receptivity, and the role that contextualization plays in effective ministry. Freddy T. also offers some poignant insights about doing ministry in a way that we can implement with the resources available to us.
