military leaders. why did us veterans turn their backs on democracy? and what does this mean for the upcoming next? the enemy within dogs to lie 12 on the w. this is dw news applica coming up on the program. a police crack down on protest in kenya fails the end, the send, and the sped fuels beyond with thousands dad and many more injured. 10 deal stories re gain public trust, up to 3 weeks of widespread outrage. also coming up. breaking barriers to the story of so many women in uniform taking the new roles in morgan issues, fight for safety and an african milestone in cycling to discuss the airy trend champion making history of the to the from

the until me on logical welcome to the program it's been a 3rd week of protest and kenya young people have been taken to the streets to express their opposition to a controversial finance bill. the police response as included to a gas water cannon. and at some points, even bullets. the tenants, human rights commission reporting that $39.00 demonstrators were killed rather than suppressing the protest. this was only fueled public anger. a dw snyder, a muller reports from nairobi. it started off as an exciting day for david monkey. he arrived early at last week's protest. and only with a water bottle and a face mask. the mood was cheerful. he says, i don't what's why was taking self is with the police some challenging piece,

but then the middle chang with the some next to me with shots people's thoughts. i'm sure if you get to the ground, i started running, then i had to bug and i was hit. the bullet went right through his neck. now in the hospital, he's waiting for a 2nd operation. david, monkey accounts himself lucky protest and next to him, shot in the head and later died. he doesn't regret taking part in the protest. he says he's fed up with the government because of its corruption and nepotism. i think it anytime you have lots of problems with educating the system is broken. if it's not, won't you know, but to, you know, look at me, i graduated from university and now i'd be reduced to driving taxes. and the police still have ross of me. he graduated with the geography degree 3 years ago, but hasn't been able to find a job. it's a fade shared by many, 67 percent of 10 years young people are unemployed. he did temporary work until his

mother took out a loan to buy him a motorbike. so it could work as a motor tax, the driver, a, somebody, somebody we might, we just have to survive in this life. so even if you follow the rules of, i'm find them you still sofa, pardon me on is on uncle and my the defense side. so i'm hungry at the government because they show these children using like bullets. they came to protest peacefully, 19 year olds, able to him, come out, attended the same demo as david. but he never returned home. you know, just let me know. i know what time feeling in my heart of the parents, the feeling to my message to the government is if it was your child that was killed in this protest, you would be feeling lots of pain to find some kind of. his mother says he was about to start college and was known for standing up for the perception of police

accountability as well as seeing the police gender. we have a very low level of trust within the community for 2 main reasons. one of which it is use all of us often even when it is not what it took and the other is the inability to actually protect people in need of protection of the call of this to essentially be the feeling that the police really do not exist to protect the public button state you existing in order to protect theirs in june. i think this is part of the criticism that is being leveled against residential though. because by failing to condemn the violence, especially the one in which very clear cases of violence against innocent. but just as all bystanders, such as children, the signal that the government handled endorses is kind of police come back. and

in fact, in previous times, we have seen presidents and ministers, i actually commend to the police full deal, deploying excessive violence during union process. so i think this breathes a little, um, destructive the system so that you know, in that sense. but the use of violence, the use of tear gas becomes almost emblematic all the products in right. and the protest movement say they are lead to less. how can the government and the law enforcement agencies better engage them then if they is a nurse, if they know specific people to, to, to address, to bring to the table, i can be address their grievances and avoid further violence. or? well, i think what can i have seen in hugs listening to the spaces without being

hosted by the people helping out the front line of this of this moment is that there's really no need for engagement. the issue we have talking about are quite clear. they are well known. and the attempts to invite people to verify that from the positions is frustrating because there has been, it can assist you maybe, you know, commissions of incredibly investigations that ok, so for instance, you know, just recently there will be a national look on the report that you know kind of ended up to that's why let the backup position before before that you have made these reports about how come and in fact, just listening to the senate for sticking this one on the, the ticket listing. and, you know, basically discussing the same issues. so the issues are quite clear, it's also governance, wish to just publicly sa, says corruption outcomes of some public offices. so what

the fee, the movement of things is not meet the full engagement, what they need to see on the side of the president and the government is actually um, i think this is what many members of the senate, including the leader of the majority in, in besetting to is a member of the ruling party have also been calling for. so you know, the ball in my view is squarely on the side to pick a moment to take action. and eventually they will actually lead to this edition of the movement and the products. okay, come all i really like to have coming out of the criminal energy at edinburgh napier university. thank you very much for your insights. in somalia, women are now taking up policing roles for the 1st time in years. it comes as

a forty's and the capital one mortgage issue are intensifying security operations in response to terror attacks. and while the women would previously have been limited to working behind desks in administrative jobs, they're not being deployed to help direct mortgage issues traffic situation. there were some new faces on the busy streets of somalia as capital. another issue. women like 28 killed submit. abdulla and now taking them off public, facing those as traffic police offices. it's a job that was off limits to women for a long time and the safety, conservative most the nation. traditionally, they were restricted to administrative jobs. behind the desk submitted, his presence is assigned attitudes towards women and their loading society are gradually changing. some somalis even preferred them to the mild counterparts. the new traffic police, women are very good. they are better than the mail traffic police before them. the

mail traffic police were just looking for bribes and checking licenses, but now they are good female traffic, police officers who check licenses and observe and implement law and order. the law needs to be followed by the government is striving to keep it laid on security and the threat of else about is large here much. so spite such attacks encouraging on a busy market and a hotel it's a complex issue in a country facing a litany of problems. site security is a top priority for the government of somalia, which continues to undertake multifaceted efforts to defeat all sure, bob, for its part all sure, bob remains determined to continue terrorist attacks with little regard for the loss of civilian life. protection of civilians must remain a key priority in the conservative country living under the constant chatter of

terrorism. the pioneering presence of women like samantha is inspiring most somali women to sign up. she says the public response has be launch the positive and calls on the women to join her. i encourage demonte women to become traffic police officers. and what for the people that i tell the public what with us and we work with youth, correct to mistakes? despite the ongoing danger of al sure, bob, the mere presence of women like samantha in uniform on the streets of mogadishu, in respect to the community, is helping come back. is that mr. ideology? i'm the own getting sweat and error trends. cyclist has made history at this. he has to a difference, been m. gourmet has become the fast black african to win

a stage during the famous race, celebrating the moment of a 24 year old ride, a dedicated his speech, 3 victory to the continent of africa, lights up hosting and social media. let me open the door a reference to his ambition, to inspire more africans, to take up the support for the funds. he's also a really big motivation for the look at either, because yeah, this is, uh, yeah, one of the most, uh, uh, no andres. you know, as motto, so i think a lot of achievement. it's kind of help them a lot. so yeah, i'm still a are helping to to shine more and then to give the motor motivation. david, king's canyon cycling, pioneer and former pearl joins us from now. tomorrow in kenya, just after a ride, a good to have you on the program with us. um, what's your reaction to be near him? gave my ass achievement. i have the 2 different ones. uh,

it's more easily go like, yeah, you know, but uh, this is, this is a good shipment for low ethic or, you know, we've been waiting for so long to get somebody who can win stages for us. and you know, being a good man is more of a sprint at. and then he can already do these things. he won digital detailed message 2 years ago and now the 20 for and so we need to have know our african writers winning the mountain stages because we have more of a, like a mountain people that may a spring does. but this is incredible, incredibly goodwill for each for give you. uh, give me uh what, what does it take to, to get to that level uh, its hello how, what can. busy appreciate and see a lot of determination. you know, you, you, you have to of a, come a lot of challenges coming all the way from the us. the guy did, they had to view up into the heart of the biggest challenge in cycling ever. and

looking at it, let's see a such a small country that there's been in war for many, many, many years. so this is, this is, this is the winning of the war that is been in deland and this is huge for us. can you tell us about your experience as a, a pro cyclist from kenya from africa and how the scene has changed since that time to uh, everything changes. uh and uh, recently things changing very, very quickly because of the advisement of the technology. uh, obviously i was um, on the fast uh block, i think items to actually go into the had to view open. i'd truly get to sign a professional contract to the professional to me. and they tell me back in the day, is that these 820020012003. know a very, very few, the broadcasts we can say finding their way into the european cycling. see, i was lucky enough that the i a good sports advice you model to write

a big mountain bike race in australia, which was the vice shown basically the mountain bike version of 20 frames back in the days that was the crocodile tool fee and australia. and then from this event, i finished the segments overall and uh, i quickly got an a ton in team interested in signing me in to the side of the road . but they are not very uh sure that they can do road cycling. but when they realized that there was actually a roadside police more than a mountain bike. so i ended up going to the demo in the telly and i, i signed a 2 year contract with the index alexia. but unfortunately, the tim, the tim collapsed in the beginning of 2003 season and what, what those major challenges you do face, you mentioned you did get this sort of sponsorship deal, but i'm guessing finance as, as is usually one of the major things that would affect cyclists on the continent.

how did you deal with these, these issues? how did you overcome them? a yeah, actually can somebody was uh, that's what we call, you know, we call them survivors on the bicycle. so the 1st and foremost is a bicycle, is a tool for, for them to somebody if you need to, it's a wanting to do you use, they use it everywhere. but uh, when it comes to sports and competition wise, then you need to awfully update the equipment and the you have to say and you have to ride the load. and these means you need money unit budgets. and this is where the challenge number one comes in. right. and another form of leadership you meant that the cycling legend chris from how important is this kind of mentorship on the local scene and local supports and developing cycling talent and africa. yeah, there's a lot of groups now coming up in the lazing that the it is very beneficial to do the grass. what's what that is to develop

a young uh boys and got us into their sports. you know, at an early age we have a kid, you know, in use a setting up to come to it and we have the most come from and they're recruiting lots of youngsters to land alley. and then that we have the canyon right. does. and of course my project this i've already seen, but as with chris footman board supporting me and the we, we see the importance of grooming these people. yeah. and. and then when you look into the history of italy to you, they had lots of this kind of a grooming coming through the ages. uh, do you see people like good, medium good may be signing like decide for the generation of f, what's done in the past. so we're looking in the same way in east africa. all right, david, king's canyon cycling pioneer, we appreciate you taking the time to speak to us. thank you very much. i to speak

to kimberly coats c o of team ask like a rising, a non profit organization that promotes and supports cycling development in africa . good to have you on the program. kimberly you spent years supporting cycling as a sport in africa. just how big is being me. i'm getting a's achievement for the sports on the continent. it's huge. it's an ethic moment for our getting safe, green and the names when is all about representation and representation matters. and he is the only black african in the pro pelettano at the tour to friends and our tens threw out the continent. see that? and they see him when and they to believe, right, we'll get to that development stage and a bit. but just looking at that level, that top level, what are the main barriers for african cyclist when they're competing at united levels like that as a tool to funds as it is, begins with them as really young children having even an access, even access to

a bike and then it's about access to races, there's not a lot of races on the continent and the races that are there are not at the highest levels. so some of the challenge becomes, how do we get the kids to europe in europe is, is the gold standard. that's where they learn the most. then you have the challenge of visas because getting especially juniors into your up to train is really challenging. and you know, the cost of it all, i mean you have kids in europe and kids in america who have parents that have credit cards. our kids are sometimes the bread winters of their families and they have to support families on top of that. so pretty much by the time one of our african writers makes it to the start line of a race like the tour to front stay of overcomes so much just to get to that point

you deal with them on the ground. what kinds of programs does team africa rising run as we look at it from a holistic perspective. so not only are we looking for in training, cyclists, but we're also training coaches. we're training mechanics, we're building mechanic networks and those and trying to end up becoming mechanic and bike shops so so that it also provides income. we trains when yours administrative staff because we do know that most kids will not make it to bins level just it's super competitive competitive and they might not make it. so if they're not going to make it, what can they do with in the sport? how do we keep them in the sport and make it so that they can have an income and, and continue to grow the sport long after we're gone. and if it was a girl to support what needs to happen for more of them to truly get to that stage

what, what are the key things the key things our investments, we need lots of money there's. there's groups like ours that work on the grounds, but our budget is super small and we do a lot with a little bit of money. um, we're only talking a couple $100000.00 is what we work with. and it's a matter of collaborating with all the different groups working on the ground. it's, it's federations because federations are really strong on the continent. it's about federations knowing more about the sport and not so coming to corruption. that is rice throughout the sports at the federation level, and it's about we have to do something about the visa issue that that is our biggest stumbling blog. i have a young woman who was signed by canyon shram wildlife are in uganda, and she can't get her visa and it's just frustrating because she's talented. she's

got the skills to make it. i have a team that wants her and we can't get her out of you've gone to. so that's, that's our biggest challenge. right, and you've spoken about the, the, the, the world, the young woman, the, we've seen a black african man have this huge achievement. what, but what about the women's, the continents women? what are the chances on the big stage? you know, they have to tell it the talent is there it's, it's giving them access to good equipment, proper training, coaching nutrition. but then with women, you have the whole, you have a whole nother side of it which is cultural. women are not seen as the, the group that should be riding bikes. and generally the women got whatever is left to ask them after the men get everything. you also have cultural issues with families, not understanding why a woman would want to raise

a base in some countries to get married super young. and there's so much pressure to have children get married, having children, and those are all things. in addition to all the challenges we have with man that we then stack on with women. okay, we'll be looking to see how things develop over time. kimberly coats has been great having you on the program to kimberly cold seals, team advocate, arise. thank you so much. i as well as for now, but be sure to check out all the stories on our website on social media the next time i know the
