7:06 pm
almost all the walk of the president of the salary increase on the, on a walk out of the, you know, increase very, very complicated. so maybe these are some of the reasons because according to the growth of over the national television and just now this said, if you go to the rules or become cemetery, because the rom fun, but it's given or excuse or what national television. and this makes people happy because of the problem present me and didn't before betty paul, there is no food. everything is but light is ready because on the past couple of months. so what happy like when coming to town, if you continue to then to definitely support then. okay, you so thank you so much for that update from jenny itself. let's bring on nicholas hock. he's our west africa correspondence and he's watching events in guinea from the car and sit and gall. so nicholas give us a little bit more context to this and tell us what could have led to these recent
