9:33 pm
looking for a way to escape, but i couldn't escape across the road. i ran into the bush and came back home from the i mean those father is in shock to 2nd son. a 15 year old was still missing one of hundreds who did not manage to escape either. this mother has 5 or for 6 children among those protect it. we don't know what to do, but we believe in god. we have no security nurse, so just no police to protect the school. yeah, the little guy didn't walk on the objection as one of the worst school kidnapping since the 2 book goals and born on state 10 years ago stunned the world up until now. many of the 2 book goals still have not been found that jerry is faced with a kid not being crises. it's not in the mess. directions from schools, but buses and trains as well as individuals that are targeted from july 2022 to july 2023. at least 3620 people web deck to to
9:34 pm
match area. since presidency newbert took office directions have gone up. despite his pledge to make security a top priority and invest more and personnel training equipment and pay, none of that made any difference inquiry when authorities finally arrived. they were met with anger and frustration. please come and help us do leave us. please help us. wherever it's the president, where is the government? the government has denounced the special interventions good for could do in the state by the end of april, 10 years after the 2 book goals with seas plunging nigeria into its kids. nothing crisis. to get the insides into the security situation in nigeria, we've invited num deal by c onto the program. he is
9:35 pm
a senior advisor on nigeria for the international crisis group, and he joins me from lagos. welcome to dw news off with him, mr. obaskey, i want to begin by asking you about what the forward sees can do to ensure that the children who were kidnapped in kaduna brought home the home 3 broad options. um, the 1st of calls is to conduct a military operation to try to rescue the children. but of course, we all know that that would be quite as at us because the i'm groups that came up last week, you know, use the truth. and i said human shields and we couldn't kill huge casualties. let's think on the auction is the one that the government has always preferred, which is the liberal sheets. and then because sessions to be kidding up us in order to free the children and how the north risks to the children. but at the same time it fits into continuing infinity, which we have seen over time. but the federal from which we are considering reductions being consumed up very strongly by being government use,
9:36 pm
it does keep pressure on the time from somebody i've talked to us to keep pressure on them. limited territories on with the guns sucked in psychological project using ministry and assets and so on until you we have them done and then they're ready to make a good negotiation and then remove the children. i think those are the options that are available now. otherwise, the government is made difficult situation understood um when when vocal around kidnapped the 2 books school goals in 2014, there was a geologist. most of the groups said that it was opposed to girls receiving wisdom education. and we know that many of the goals were forced to marry their taxes today. so court band, it's all carrying out these attacks various on groups. has this now evolved to just becoming a business model without the hottest ideology? are absolutely correct. i think over time, i mean it'd just be a good time. they keep not things that have been attributed as part of the charges
9:37 pm
to the company and helps you know receive that to the background people. but well, i mean, the number of the kidnapping incidence and the number of them and them that victims have been by criminal, lovely addition to that. we call them bounded some of them always all by you know, just to optimize guns in other parts of the country. so at this point the grid consent is look really so much about the, the types of groups and the last 2 up to you please do 2 adults people. but the vast majority, i think we could say a bit about him. it's the 90 percent and outcome, let me know, bye bye. find these groups and all that coming out of positions around the country . so it is now more of a criminal activity that energy. how do you start to be? part of the problem is that these groups are able to access guns and it looks like easily. so how is this happening that i'm groups have access to, to this kind of weaponry and the resources they need to be able to carry out these
9:38 pm
attacks as the times have come from them. the cher republic from bass from the hill um some sauces, it'll trace them right back to the collapse of the government to the media. and they live florida that got into this the how come this a hell of, you know, from that point. but then basically the nothing bought as of the country, but during these every public, i mean appalling. the parents say a lot of times and all that legal merchandise coming to this area. so it literally comes out coming from outside. but there's also a lot of local fabrication, but it's taking place. so they make big numbers that constantly building up the optimal. but i'm just trying to cover all the kid loving some nick and little money that provides resources for them to be once more. so when you say revolving door, i need it continuously feeding process, that'd be that extra money that starts money,
9:39 pm
basically be the big exempt around sales. and then that helps them to build up, you know, increasingly possible. and also the points that be able to bring the administrative craft, which would have seen in recent times. mr. obaskey looking in from the outside. it seems as though the forward season niger have lost control of the security situation. would that be your assessment? i know the thing that the author does, i've lost control of the security decision, but what we're seeing now, you know the alternatives have loved demo, strict it as a result to do with the problem in fair respects. first of all, we don't see the will, but doesn't seem to be the will to deal with the problem. besides that, you once in a while, you know how to of richard. nothing of the author just incident appropriate president gives directives much and for that to the military, you know, to, to, to go out to the kids love of and that kind of thing. but so, you know, that's that with up. but what do you find that the local we'll there is a level about what to do to solve the, some of the long term babies. i mean,
9:40 pm
there is not it who has the comprehensive plan that details what has to be done about, you know, kind of took responses, not kind of took responses, the room of the federal government, the route most people went on so on in a concert. and we each month at the moment, i'm the mentioning the resources, you know, having to be not flights will be the number of troops is still very small. the number of bodies is deficient and equipment wise. they also very mounting, especially with technology, the logistics of communications that they need to block, that means groups of them farm. i mean after each instrument, there is no not attempts to go determine what's to go after these groups. i'm briefly, i need us to draw these. so there's a random contingency. you know, that continues on some that gives the impression that the government does not get quite serious about dealing with this problem. i mean, this is like the general shedding, press on imaginary. all right, that is done deal by say senior adviser on nigeria for the international crisis group. thank you for your insights. it
9:41 pm
a thank you very much. my pleasure. your watching date of the news? africa still to come? the women who got a 2nd lease on life and is making the most of that. i'll be talking to the nigerian senior divided joy on her plan to go from nairobi to lagos on a motorbike. the 1st to this, the 13th african games are underway in government. some disciplines they give athletes the chance to secure qualifications to this is and then picks and parents . so unlike the f calling that took place in neighboring quote, the for the african games with 54 nations competing has a spots the much needed you for and cross levels attention. isaac, ology in across, has small gun is likely team has home advantage of this. he has africa games in a cra,
9:42 pm
and so the money brought here is $1.00 of them is leaving a child who to dream of competes, and that the highest level of the supports that the 2 is african games gives team a shot after winning meadows for gunner crowd, but there's a big goal of reaching the olympics games in july. he says it will be great to have like a guardian to be on the podium. that is the 5th point me in on to put you on here. then this tools that were lympics to, i'm looking for it and like i said to collectively get in the middle for the country. actually from 54 nations are fighting for glory, a 3 to 9 different disciplines or the games. each of them i only qualifies. it's ready, site and goal for the at least competing to fulfill the sporting dreams. but it
9:43 pm
hasn't all been going smoothly for the organizes. the leads to the completion of manuals and disputes between state quote is false. the games to be held this year instead of last august. these issues hop largely or by shadow the interest around the games locally. probably 60 ahead of the games have, you know, not to in districts in the house of billboards for more than the veins that's mix following the games. struggle for some i do know rides and there was nothing, not fundraising. so we didn't get to actually get what, what's going on. people are not here. number 3, i see the billboards and see that posted and all but what is actually going on? what are we doing when, when we talk about games, how many games are we playing? i think if i'm using 200 a bit know for me to organize is belinda lo, enthusiasm on cool beach and financial difficulties. they fully realize not as expected for so many readings um at the time that was supposed to peach in terms of
9:44 pm
branding, in terms of obesity, coverage sets in both a lot of financial challenges. and so i'd meet at least the for the husband reach the present to that we all expect the goodness pains, $195000000.00 on infrastructure for the games and the fees are funded. comic crises and questions i know being asked about the impacts of hosting the games on ordinary citizens. and i am now joined by my colleague, low id. i think we from dw sports is good to have you at the big table. uh no i do . i want to begin by asking you why all the africa games not getting some of that attention to what the f con tournament for example, got. the african games are no longer as popular as they used to be. many of the continents top after that do not participate in it because the professionals
9:45 pm
overseas and or like ask one way you have the top from but that's come back home to fly, to fly to the countries. the for both the mental desk on games is on, on that trying to championship and nobody really too many people don't really care about the twenties and also it is not only a few uh, uh, events, uh, qualifying events for the lengthy games. you know, so the top populates will market that don't go to the african games anymore unfortunately. so these are some of the easiest, but also you find that you don't even have international media broadcast partnership. you know, so the games only being broadcast locally under the national tv. and so in the international coverage of it, these rise really low. so if you're outside of gone, it's really hot. you actually be able to watch the games to do the game. select a big sponsor when there's no um, media coverage, then sponsors may not see mileage that you can get, you know, so because they,
9:46 pm
people can hardly watch it in any other part of the continental, you know. so and then like i said previously when your top box and it's on the continent on the i know see eyes on trumped in shape. so it goes by without so much of traction instruction. and then the sponsor was kind of pulled back in the part of it, which is the what's the organization's been like, uh, the host donna how, how is the games progressing? gonna build to a new sports facility is the universal gun uh supposed to be doing the leg one and a bunch of mine support center, which is on the north sports facility for indulging a cost more than $200000000.00 to renew reduce the end of the room over the so i'm kind of hostels for 4 o'clock that's, you know, so in terms of organization pretty good is i've spoken to
9:47 pm
a few generalist one ground and they said delighted. but then a few days ago, lights, uh, went off the football match and went off with ya. so it showed perhaps lack of prepared vision or lack of from the wood organization on the ground. but generally people say it's, it's a, it's a good game. so, so, i mean, you mentioned $200000000.00 is what kind of security made a big investment typically countries, but to host these tournaments because of the benefits that they stand to gain. i mean, a is going to really going to benefit from, from this huge investment that they've made. gunner, we've been issued from splits facilities. the news with facilities that is on will not be available for young athletes to grow in donna. but then long term, i mean also during these games you have lots of people coming in for 1005000 documents for many deals. thing, hotels and media and visitors are staying with was in the hotels, you know, so they'll be hotel costs,
9:48 pm
revenue from food and all these things. but in the long grown menu, countries have no really odd. um uh, benefits long term benefits from you as it contains and fold down. uh, also struggling on the peach and and um, to make the middle is digits are leading. so who knows? yeah, it's really a good one for them. well that's we will leave it for now. the last day i did, we from dw sports. thank you. choose next to a bite to joy, who has big plans. she wants to be the 1st african woman to ride a motorbike from mamba in kenya, to lagos in nigeria, who motivation stems from her desire to live life, to the fullest. that's off a road accident 10 years ago, left to with severe back injuries and mobility problems. now she hopes to inspire
9:49 pm
the next generation of young africans. but anything is possible from coast to coast east to west, right across the continent, and then small amount. we back us, right? you know, mean, if i did try to mix some minute checks ahead of how long jenny, how mechanic is giving advice on what to do is the more to a bike breaks down the road and by that can barely contain high excitement. the wide open roots head of huh. fine, i me, a noise and lots of things screwed. half when. how long do we, while 90 miles bad roads? uh, but it's no it, let's say no it's on it's those things id. i'd venture to those things. i'm mc keel, i didn't, i didn't pop those things that make your blood haunts and run fast through your veins. that's i'd vigil in my own definition and that's exactly what i'm looking forward to. and oh my god, i cannot begin to explain how it said i on the about everything icons we to experience it. cool. and by deadlines,
