5:34 pm
to take away risk, you know, to go in the numbers from, from the judiciary, police and then the presentation. the presidential got no taking on the national guard and taking the ministers back and putting them back to the denture. and so that a lot of that is, is troubling and said to me, not according to the process, but i do not see really cool in this area. so for an attempt to take power by, by the, the volume and to re majority of the, of the page you say, in terms of the costs or something cool. well, yeah, the president's basically to be occasion to announced the dissolution of the volumes. and in this instance, actually, the concession is pretty clear um the volume and cannot be sold during the 1st year after the election. and we're only age mom's after the election. so, you know, the constitutionality of the president's decision is indeed very doubtful. and this

5:38 pm
a strong part of the problem. and then of course, the way in which the lead or is a rule since since independence in $74.00. he's also thought of the problem. the choices is made obviously, as an, as not allowed to transform the situation and to, to sort of create a better dynamic. thank it. fast, awful, shay for that insight and analysis. we appreciate it. thank you very much. i this can you this, i'll just the latest military associated jail break in west africa with 2 others in november gimme and see on the, on the why the region has seen cruise off to cook. in the last 4 years alone, there have been 7 ministry clues in wisdom, central africa, guinea, in 2021. but key in a fossil in 2022, and most recently, and they share it with the ministries these paula in july, chad and so done. also experienced ministry clues in 2021 and monte sol. clues in

5:40 pm
season is a good fire season. here in the east of mauritania. bush fires like these can destroy a pastor, crucial for livestock. were just a few kilometers from the border with molly, where people have been fleeing violence for years. i was moved to miss owed arrived here in 2012. i won't, i won't. he volunteers with a fire brigade king to show us how they operate. the and the it hurts us when we see this bird land. it's like our hearts that were burning . like i said, and it's as if our house had burned down, it's the economy and our lives that were burned down. the animals make up the economy in this region. the animals eat this grass and if it burns, they have nothing to eat and they will die. so they use these branches from fire resistant and trees to vash out the flames. the volunteer fire brigade was set
5:41 pm
up in the camp square masses and the other river cities in full call center. and we have to help each other out in the economy which is shared between us and the locals. yeah, about the budget in federal we have to do something even if we have nothing, let me send it back in business. i don't, i normally give our sweat and this is money to in a way. that's why we created this organization. we have to do something for them to the fire brigade attracts many refugees looking for meaningful action and social connections. 500 volunteers have joined since they were going to zation was recognized by the u. n. referenced agency in 2018. they've put out more than $135.00 fires. they make friends here get to know each other and the more attain ends and find an occupation even to help forget the many things they experienced at home. you know,
5:42 pm
especially in this period when the new events in molly, there's so many young people arriving at the camp day and night on the 100000 people living and then very i can are continually drawing to buy new refugees for money just this year. the u. n. h sierra registered 10000 new arrivals and more have found shelter in villages near the border. my food has been here for more than a decade, but the violent and molly is ever present. she says his nephew was killed there this year. how do you miss icon? there are massacres, killings of anyone, anywhere or in any way possible. this year lives in the cities in the bush on the road. in the villages, the people, women. this really makes us feel very uneasy. mother is. i need
5:43 pm
to have my food still hopes that he'll be able to return tomorrow the one day. but until the violence there's thoughts, he'll stay here and fight fires with the other volunteers, rape and sexual abuse of man is often not reported. and that makes it difficult to get a true picture of how wide spread it is, but it is believed to be a major problem in nigeria when the organization working with men, say, statistics tend to reflect one side of the story. i'll be talking to an expert on that officer. this report from dw correspondent flash will bunny on the digital safe space. that's helping men in nigeria find healing from their childhood trauma . this 29 year old man, let's call him daniel was sexually abused at the age of 6 by an older female. she
5:44 pm
was unable that experience. he says completely changed his life. he now struggles with it, pornography and must the patient addiction and sees no way out. i will also go further, so i'll still get that. that would be that i'm singled out out of my life. so now he's getting married as a release of that. don't get me out of it. yeah. he's such as fast on it. so that kind of thing. every so it doesn't actually look official. so this is like, well we come up onto it. so keep up name. so we, we asked of the something he's doing what he can writing about he's experienced, i'm know, the most me hoping his story released by our parents to be more protective of the phones. and as a school teacher, he says he feels an even greater burden to prevent young ones from having ac me like spirit. it's hard to find any official fee because on the rates of sexual abuse among young boys in nigeria,
5:45 pm
one we sent reports put the number 3 inc. 10 boys, a high number, but that hardly gets any attention on looking for a student. be the main conversational ai you also the day because when i was strong, i mean like 6, there's a lot of the stereotypes that we have. you society dots then to support those kind of neutrons. so much you do and she's friend started boys without borders to change such notions. it's a safe space online. we have men share the experiences since they started in 2020. they've heard from more than 14 men, many of the victims, one of the world to know that boys need attention to. what you do says it's only a 1st step to healing a. i think a majority of our respondents with though you did to know it's one's been diagnosed with supports on i think there's also the ties bought to dine. no, shown like why con 100. it's myself. i'm on even though like this. it didn't need
5:46 pm
to actually talk about teach to like, or lose some of days to not understand the importance of booking through a professional. no, i bought this job and you guys think that is also one of the things that we're trying to work on now? do you see my phone? see is now reaching out to young boys in secondary schools. teaching them that it's ok to ask for help. monthly is really functional, mean printing, what you've received received by the cycle boys be called mean a made synch boys to be called me. so what we're trying to do is to reach out to the boys early stages, give them the right information. meanwhile, survival is like daniel who's saying that story, so you do just want people to pay more attention to the issue so that it doesn't happen in the 1st place. yeah, so keep, okay, i'm gonna do you want to have to take this kind of experience and very little guys
5:47 pm
who wants to talk about still sadly, when you're moving noise, you might have sexual assault engaged. children happens globally much as they show new speed to women and goes, daniel, i do hope these kind of stories foster was not to forget about the police to. i'd like to welcome ducks have princess all the same, the coyote, she's an expert and responding to sexual and gender based violence as well as at 6 . you, as he thought, said, that's the only say because you would be welcome to data being use africa. you founded media concern initiative for women and children more than 20 years ago. do we know how wide spread to sexual violence against men and boys is pdf from about 20 years ago? let me just say about 2005 when we began to respond to the issue in the country in terms of child sexual abuse on 3 teams as a witness that we have
5:48 pm
a problem. and when are we looking to reach? so we have children coming generally intervene center and calls coming in from parents. and what are these, what children i'm to can about them both male and female. so we have voice and you have kids. so we've got to have boys mean these poor pin things situated when they're steps that is just like to hold the know in terms of the reports. and if one of the things a percentage on so competitive numbers are reports that came generally children corvette about 55 percent for the spectrum, less of cases we have from 2005 down to about 2015 bucks. boys, if you don't want to look at between male and female, you want to say about 25 percent of that to me boys. but interestingly enough, now in the country as a whole, you have a lot of more reports coming out of the most that have to do with sort of strongly official voice really, really, really been coming in, you know,
5:49 pm
in electrical is anymore, it's coming in a higher dimension here and that's a nigeria introduced a trail, plays a blazing law in 2015. this is the, the violence against persons prohibits. in fact, that change the law essentially to include rape of men as a crime. has that little been a game changer change of force? so 5 is of sexual violence, guessing justice. indeed it has, it has really, really helped the risk cause, you know, to social identity as long as booked on mainland for women. because now if you do this for women is no longer just pay mouth, you know, some penetration remove any thing that is used. cars also read. so for them, having more reports coming out and then barely, i think close to the, the false pizza. i am not 50, i will invest in the most because i have an ad from the federal level states also often feel free the next. yes, yes. close to pay for have already and after that. and then of course we've,
5:50 pm
that's, came some very wonderful interventions. now you have a states rest phones, i need to be official and before the law, according to that is responsible for the commission of a lawful everything that needs to be placed for people to access health, the official policy of an official and health. then they're also such, i refer it also filters and requests into the country. now we have to as to see about the 28th. if baltimore now sucks across the country. some in some states, some more than one in some states, just to one. i've been training of somebody healthcare, all of this is call me on that. in fact the media meet that was the actually was and, and, and after the 5th also becomes a mux, the old deal with that with f. c. that's our resources for bunch. and he's an editor to office, particularly for men with the ones that we don't do with it. but announcements will write stuff. so only send me k o d. i know that you are
5:51 pm
a survivor of sexual violence. what would your message be to someone who has experienced or is still experiencing abuse and is still suffering maybe alone? what 10 they to? yes, health health is available. get stuck in the days when it happens to me. that was really annoying, but i sought health for myself because i knew that was much, much less than i was going to. um, that's just a self determination for me. i'm not everybody also has that's the nice on the world i do with, if in fact, every, every individual is different from the older person but gets helped very helpful. now people need to reach out a way i can get help. you may not even deal with a different way. you can speak to them out about things and you specifically go to google, google. so just google, what are risk fall sense of, where can i go? and that also can go, i'd have to back, it also means that everybody wants to go to the criminal justice system, particularly for adults. but you can get the help if you need didn't get the helpful. you don't come on to my, somebody's formed counseling thing. you can gets medical assistance and copies your
5:52 pm
ribs and we'd be subject to, i was here to assess what was called post exposure for life is if you don't even know mostly what happened to you, the little screen they'll be don't for you maybe come and maybe show it still have this life event is free, so we need to know that there was help. i'll definitely you issue report or you don't really want to post a cause any, but you don't want to go. so we're going to, it's, as you'll start from one of them, i don't see a personal decision on which would be respected. just think is fine. what i need is the main system. i know also come from that maybe therapy, i can get to be better. so that i can let this weeks the fit of this whole team and be, you know, in the, in goes to thoughtful for you. so a viable and there is help me very soon. thank you very much for that stuff the princess on. if any coyote, we appreciate that. thank you the
