the.

only takes the movement for. this debate what do they want from the politicians. here. there's a. point. in. the back.

and was raised the question was what happens with. my. life. even if. the. pages were example. thank you. to africa because kenya's main opposition leader has branded the

presidential election rerun a sham and called for a new vote within ninety days. supporters in nairobi. strongholds were suspended because of violence. commission is pushing president to head with ninety percent of the vote spoke out against the post-election violence that's left at least six dead. busy. with his. computing. is competing against. the. three point five million that is it is god knows something to me do the. visit. or is he going to call a sham elections in the shambolic we are not unwilling to talk but the gender would still be the same agenda. to create

a level playing field so that solution can be held in the next ninety days my mother has the latest now from nairobi. the results been touted by the independent electoral commission in various parts of the country are dividing the people of kenya just like the election process before you opposition supporters are saying. they did believe tinkering with numbers to make up for very little for. the government we've just come back from interviewing the deputy president of kenya william. that. they are more than ninety five percent of the votes cast and that it's just a matter of time before president who took. him. for another in office now kenya's most high what is the killings going on in some

parts of nairobi with some militias allied to politicians cutting out the killings of different ethnic groups police say they're looking for the politicians more of those militias to cut the talks joining us live here on the news from nairobi is the deputy president of kenya william ruto mr richard welcome to al-jazeera how can you. possibly believe that this election was actually free and fair. for the record we have defeated. three times in five years every time we defeated him we defeated him without become idea and he has been trying to use extra constitution or means to get into government and that we have refused mystery so let me interrupt you there for a second certainly to interrupt you just for one minute that is not quite an answer to my question i was asking you how can you say this election was free and fair

twelve million people chose to or felt they could not vote election officials election observers stayed in their hotels we saw riots looting arson we saw civilians being killed. for the record again. contrary to what you have said on the end of august fifteen million seventy eight seventy eight percent of kenyans stand up to vote in this election forty percent of kenyans have turned up to vote it was the intention of the opposition to that not kenyan showed up to vote to their dismay seven point three million kenyans woke up and went to vote

but even if all those you haven't yet all those penile had. me to interrupt you again soon fish and even if all those people had decided to vote and they had gone to the polling booths they could not have voted because election officials put in place by the electoral commission why up there in the materials the materials i am voting to you were not on location. i am talking to you if you have the correct information about these location of seven point six million people who are actually four voted i am not talking about those who did not manage to vote there either nine percent of kenyans about one point eight million who did not vote and those people who did not vote they didn't manage to vote because of violence violence that is sponsored by mr odinga in his region in fact he organized militia that stopped citizen from accessing

polling stations he organized militia to stop i.e. b.c. or fish or electoral material from getting to polling station except for two constituencies where election material got to the polling stations and fitter than what it was three and a country in a country with not isolationism going to invent six seven million from there we finish in a collaborate where the population is ninety six million finally should you not deny something and still be actually talking about the twelve million people who did not vote as opposed to the seven point two million people who did vote the correct that to stick is when all the candidates were there on the eighth of august fifteen million kenyans supported. in this election seven point six million

kenyans supported those who did not vote while asked to boycott the election by the opposition it is our choice that citizens make in kenya it is not it is not mandatory for anybody to vote it is our choice that you make you choose to vote or you choose not to vote what we are against is mr. hughes or militia and violence to stop citizens from exercising their democratic constitutional right and he has succeeded in a very small section of kenya that is only nine percent of kenya the money to stop citizens from forty twelve million people twelve million people also not your lasting averts is not a small percentage of the country and you also have a bigger problem here surely before this rerun of the presidential election the head the chief of your electoral commission said he was unsure in his heart where

there's a real iran would be free and fair and he could not possibly have predicted the scenes of near riots that we saw on the streets we carried those pictures live on this channel for your information the man you are talking about as i talk to you in the studio now is presiding over the conclusion of the election results are the bottom up of their national telling center he subsequently had a meeting with the opposition leader he flexibly had a meeting with the president and myself and he said subsequently satisfied himself that all the security arrangements why in place in ninety percent of the country in fact in the whole country except in the areas that mr were doing a managed to sponsor a militia that stopped election officials from accessing polling stations and allowing citizens to want. arguably mr odinga simply doesn't have the resources to

pull off what you're talking about but i do want to move our discussion on to another couple of points you have a bigger issue here or you have two bigger issues can i suggest to you one you cannot possibly sustain mr kenyatta cannot possibly sustain something that may yet be to come that may chime with what happened in the aftermath of two thousand and eight point number one point number two is this you have a bigger issue here which is identity politics within kenya you have a sizeable percentage of your population who feel disadvantaged why because they are disadvantaged and no politician is getting to them for your information the kenyan constitution ensured. mind that makes it mandatory for every part of kenya to be included in the management of the affairs

of the country our constitution provides for a divorce and fifty more government it is no longer possible to my dear life any part of kenya any more by constitution resources division making. gets to every corner of kenya every region of kenya it is no longer possible for anybody to say that any part of kenya can be marginalized number one number two we have land and were left on the events of two thousand and eight two thousand and seven where we almost lost the country we are not fooled it is only fools who learn from their mistakes the events of two thousand and eight two thousand two thousand and seven two thousand and seven two thousand and eight will never happen again in kenya ok one last point you seem to basically be saying that kenya and kenyans have to lean into the discomfort of this arguably that will never

work but will go with as a central assumption off the back of that we've got on tape royal at the dentist saying he is prepared to talk presumably within a parameter of another election happening within three months ninety days is what is mr kenyatta central message to royal dingo will they come together and talk to each other or negotiate through something like the supreme court again or the electoral commission again our statement and our position to our friend that would be is that kenya is that constitutional democracy and every imaginable situation has been provided for by the constitution. whatever he's alleging about an election i don't know in ninety days he's nowhere in the constitution and no one person however important they

think they are how popular they think they are can change the provisions of the constitution kenya is not the animal farm where there are. some that are more equal than others all of us the president included are subject to the constitution the constitution provides that there will be i will run within sixty days that is what happened on the twenty think part of the last week and can i will move on from there there will be no election in ninety days there will be no discussion on matters to do with the election we will have dialogue with mr on other matters not matter that have been funded by the people of kenya in their. will in a ballot will have to wait and see what those other matters might be william ruto deputy president of kenya many thanks thank you very much my friend.

plenty more still to come here on the news including a mother and daughter reunited in the philippines despite a deadly conflict that's torn hundreds of families apart. as lebanon's cannabis trade turned sour some five farmers are finding love with a new crop and in the sports news a family of nine innings turn around and see the level of baseball world. members of parliament in iraq's kurdish regional meeting to discuss the future of their president right now massoud barzani has been under pressure to quit following september's controversial secession referendum the vote triggered more than ten days of fighting between iraqi and kurdish forces staff baca joining us live covering that story out of erbil steph was he planning to do to be think. well he's made it clear in this letter and also we've heard from the head of the p.d.p.

that's his party's part of parliamentary block that he doesn't have the willing or would not be extending his term what does that mean peter while there were supposed to be elections in november the first that's wednesday they've now been postponed or delayed let's say by eight months so basically what he's saying is he will not be part he will not be the president for those eight months what we're seeing in the building behind us that's parliament they're meeting the session was suspended for an hour or so they heard the letter and they are now going to vote on a distribution of power if you will as to how this how this region is going to be run in those eight months particularly from what we understand which powers parliament will have the additional troops which arms of government perhaps according to rumors some power in the hands of the prime minister who is his nephew i guess we're waiting for this press conference offered to have all of that firmed up and certainly all indications are that as of wednesday wednesday through the bodies any will no longer be president of the k r g you were telling us a little earlier stuff about the dynastic overtones of the buzz on these on the

taliban is i mean if business to me now steps aside is it just a case of out with the old in with the old and he becomes a backseat driver oldest. this is what many people will tell you because he has been at the helm of this region for so long the president for twelve years also fighting as a pressing matter before that for the kurdish cause his family is well entrenched here as you mention in his nephews the prime minister his son has a very firm grip over the security apparatus but there is a so there is that of course but there is also a growing there's always been a divide your entire need but seen as what happened on the repercussions of that controversial referendum it has given the opposition more ammunition if you will some people will tell you what's happening here is perhaps a start a small to a step towards giving more powers towards the institutions here because president resigning really has run this region on his own pretty much for quite some time suspended parliament in two thousand and fifteen only bringing it back recently to

push through to the just a minus that controversial call for a referendum i think just briefly interestingly in all of this we haven't heard from the man himself he has given statements he has not actually addressed the people and i think very interestingly we probably more than likely today will be hearing everything he will no longer be president parliament has voted on how to move forward and still we have not heard from president assad but is that he himself stuff thank you. thousands of people have marched through me in mars' biggest city in support of the military over the crisis to do with the range of muslims the minority muslim community accuses the military of rape murder torture and in rakhine state six hundred thousand of them have fled to bangladesh in the past two months demonstrates a condemnation of the army is unwarranted florence. thousands marched some bussed in from neighboring states the rally organized by nationalists and military veterans is to show support for myanmar's troops the military has come

under criticism from the international community for its ongoing crackdown against the range of minority in rakhine state people here say the criticism is unwarranted we need to support the military because they are defending the country we need to stand with our soldiers. by being here and supporting our troops we hope to reduce the criticism against our military. the army chief has defended the operation in rakhine as a counter offensive against an armed group of fighters that the government considers a terrorist organization the. nationalists monks at the rally say muslim revenge or in rakhine are trying to turn parts of the country into an islamic state this is one of several pro military events violence broke out in more than rakhine state in august others are planned. a rarely such as that is because the military the country. isn't

a popular institution. some analysts say these events shouldn't be taken as a blanket support for the military they also show backing for the governing national league for democracy party or in reality if the military goes against. the. military. in this instance the military. and the ruling party appear to have taken the same stand defacto leader aung san suu kyi has been criticized not only for not speaking out for the regime but for defending the military's actions the support for both government and military at this event underscores one other thing there are very few people in myanmar who will speak out for the ranger florence louis yangon. they had a police and intelligence in somalia well they've both been sacked after

a price. what's little known is to do that they're increasingly relying on miners as people smugglers they call them dogs. this fourteen year old boy is one of them like others we talked to he and two hundred dollars for every mexican he takes across five hundred percent from americans with the money i can do many things buy clothes and you do many things for my family. the cartels recruit put your toes in the poorer parts of quantities they can a more in a single night than their parents do in four months working in the city's board of factories. government officials told us that strong young people into the business along the u.s. mexico divide you might be surprised to know that only thirty percent of the us mexico border is covered by any sort of fence and it's where that end is that the young guides try to get their kites across the united states. but your return still

face the desert with its snakes biting cold and the waiting u.s. border patrol i think we had close to close to seventy people that were identified as human are smugglers in two thousand and six in twenty sixteen we had almost one hundred fifty people identified as being human are human smugglers the problem for the u.s. is that it's extremely hard to prosecute minors and that's exactly why the cartels are using them they can run the routes again and again if they're cool usually just means a ride back to mexico. they're handed over to this government center where a small but that a catered team gives them classes while they wait for parents to pick them up trying to encourage them to go back to school and intensity that director here berthel saul is worries if they don't they'll only get more tangled up in the cartels your money would ask if they could finish getting into arms trafficking and kidnapping he says. after being caught in his first crossing his seventeen year old

when the malta sees parts of the city hoping to set up an islamic state its fighters took several thousand civilians hostage in the course of the month long battle many civilians have either been released or escaped government records show less than eighty families have registered their missing human rights experts say that number may be higher that is because many feared the stigma that if they come forward registering their missing loved ones their relatives may be accused of collaborating with them out. the philippine military has declared morale we liberated from the pro ice a group after months of fighting most of morality is now left in ruins over a thousand people have died and hundreds of thousands more displaced you can agreement here you know the ones you really have to read you. another set of bodies

but increasingly these fields are starting to disappear over the years the military has launched periodic crackdowns across the eastern because valley setting fire to plants and causing major losses for growers when she comes from a long line of cannabis cultivators he says despite the risks his family had often been able to make healthy profits but not anymore. we had to stop hashish cultivation because although it was lucrative and the environment here is excellent for growing it was illegal we faced several challenges because we were small dealers and couldn't keep up with the big dealers who can export the has she should brought one of the biggest issues facing the cannabis industry in recent years is their traditional smuggling routes through syria have been blocked because of the war tired of the uncertainty many farmers have turned to another crop to revive their fortunes grapes for making wine. this vineyard was

planted just a few years ago it produces grapes of such high quality that it is already being made into wine michelle who had been in the house she she destry for decades but gave it up to make wine says growing cabernet instead of cannabis was an easy choice. in the end we want to live with dignity and with a clear conscience rather than living with the fear of being fugitives that's why i was one of the first people to leave the drugs business because everyone here wants to live a dignified and legal life. this winery was set up to allow small scale wine growers to work together as a cooperative it's part of attempts to help them crack the competitive lebanese market with their own vintages. since january more than one hundred thousand bottles have produced here which is still only a fraction of the eight million bottles of wine lebanon produces each year but with

profits from grapevine cultivations started to surpass earnings front count is growing there is little doubt there will soon be more wine then we'd hear. al-jazeera in lebanon eastern because. egypt has launched a major shakeup of its security services a week after sixteen police officers died in an attack in a province small hammett had ghazi is the new chief of staff of the armed forces replacing mahmoud ghazi the two men and not related to national security has also been sacked along with senior military generals. al-jazeera is demanding the release of his journalist muckler hussein who's not been in an egyptian prison for more than three hundred days he's accused of broadcasting false news to spread chaos which he and al jazeera strongly deny mahmood has repeatedly complained of mistreatment in jail. and cuba is denying any involvement in alleged sonic attacks that led to more than twenty u.s. embassy stuff being recalled from havana the u.s.

attacks are on just whatever the type of attack whatever the incident it is completely false the foreign minister also described the whole incident as and i quote political manipulation aimed at damaging bilateral relations now important to note that the u.s. has never directly accused cuba of being responsible for the illness of its diplomats however it did say that cuba has not done enough to investigate the causes of those cuba's position very clearly there is no such attacks underway there have been no attacks and even if there were certainly cuba has got nothing to do with it but all of this is got to be seen as well in the context of the trumpet ministration relations with cuba were reestablished under a bomber under the trumpet ministration things have changed substantially from the very beginning a president making very clear he is not that happy with these increasingly warm

relations with cuba now we've seen a continual deterioration emerging from these claims of some kind of covert sonic attack. china has unveiled the world's biggest ship to install offshore wind turbines the two thousand ton vessel can install turbines and sea much faster than before china is the world's biggest emitter of greenhouse gases scientists taken big steps to develop alternative power sources the country's been pushing for offshore wind turbines and the cost of building them on land has gone up. animals like bears and links last seen centuries ago being reintroduced into the wild across europe in scotland one project hopes to bring back wolves from absence of more than three hundred years the clock. rugged and remote in the heart of the scottish highlands the alladin wilderness reserve it is stunning to behold but it's a view shaped by man. think i mean look at anything but it's not what scotland used

to be scotland youth be a great forest you know much of britain. that forest was slowly ripped out by centuries of ship building an industry full lister wants to return this land to how it once was and as well as already planting nearly a million trees he plans to release and control animals that have long since disappeared the large carnivores present made up the ecosystem such as. break shot out. to create a large scale. world. and to bring back. like many who favor rewilding such as this full believes this would help restore the balance of nature and keep the populations of red deer in check which reached destructively high numbers now it's not just keystone species like wolves and bears that are in the frame much less controversial but just as important is the action being taken over red squirrels here in scotland. the red squirrel has been squeezed

out of much of the british isles by its great counterpart scotland is one of the last stronghold but even here it's under threat within scotland as the situation pretty much the whole of the northwest doesn't have any rights. to this project to reintroduce them to the northwest and recently on the morning health inspection take them across and then release them and. it's a project that engages the local community college murdoch works on a nearby state and keeps an eye on the new arrivals i think it's a wonderful idea and i do and. this is done in several places new very successfully undiscoverable they have released them. set up a little population see from the goodies and should be heating back out on a day red squirrels have already made a comeback there's also a focus on wildcats

a breeding program is being attempted to help restore a national population which is dwindled to dangerously low levels all in all the concept of rewilding is one which if properly managed can help species of all sorts thrive and also perhaps help people connect with nature the way it once was. al-jazeera the scottish hype. much more still to come here on the news in the sports news with andy will have reaction from pakistan working with security operations in place one of the most important days in the country sporting history . where there is water there is life but finding it in australia's arid deserts is a skill few still possess they took us to a small what spartans in the desert and this was this is a very important place that i've been telling us about for the last five days the plaintiff. and and warning against all odds an aging population is passing

on its knowledge the rainmakers of the outback at this time on a just. when the news breaks. and the story builds steam jobs much better marketing. when people need to be heard they thought they were american until they broke the law now they're deported to cambodia al-jazeera has teams on the ground to bring you model and board winning documentaries and live news on air and online.

i did just ask him are you cooking with taking over tennis no i think that kind of gives away a little but he has a hope of starting with cricket that was born from bit of a shock pakistan is hosting its highest profile cricket match for eight years that's taking on sri lanka in a game in lahore ten thousand police have been deployed with schrank apply in pakistan for the first time since a gun attack on that same bus in two thousand and nine eight people were killed in that incident and seven players were injured it meant teams stopped going to pakistan security concerns sits in the test playing nations to visit pakistan has been zimbabwe and a spot on. well there have been playing an exhibition series the packers that pakistan back in september and number of sri lanka's major players have decided to pull out of this match. the men have been deployed. to take the venue and. nowhere does the burden because there's the issue of national prestige is the

issue of national pride at the moment and. the most important thing. that it's thirty. eight nine years down the line now decides to come back this is sending a huge signal to the rest of the world they were the affected party they were the party that was attacked they haven't all said the security arrangements on board they want to help the people of pakistan bring back international stars and they are now stepping up in order to demonstrate that they support the game and that the security arrangements are good now well earlier i spoke to a shuttle sports editor at pakistan's dawn newspaper about how important the match is for the future of cricket in the country. it is sort of a revival of international cricket in pakistan after almost eighty years it is ironic though that it was in two thousand and nine which was attacked in this very city of lahore and they have come back. in pakistan but it does an absolutely great

occasion although pakistan has won the series already there is so much hype so much enthusiasm in the entire nation people are throwing their stadiums there ready to be glued to the t.v. sets so it is a really a festive occasion a great occasion for probably some cause there are concerns of other foreign teams leaving teams in international cricket like australia and england because of course so much security right from the airport to the hotel to the stadium is really extraordinary and pakistan will have to do better i feel to ensure absolute safety and security of players and. really to say that the entire. period that they have spent eighty years of picking on me and of course of terror is over and the teams will start coming here again right think it will still take
