7:33 am
live. the women of august were somehow abandoned by the international community. we listen, we are paying a price for the war against terrorism. what's going on is money we meet with global news makers. i'm talk about the story stuck on out. you see? i think i of them. yeah. okay. 2022 in africa has seen political and environmental challenges, groundbreaking sporting achievements in the walk up. and now people across the continent are looking ahead to the new year to day on the stream. 3 stories that will make headlines in 2023, including prospects for peace in sedan and a present to elections in broadway. nigeria, if you look to join in the conversation, you can do so on youtube. ah,
7:34 am
so we start with nigeria where they are less than 10 weeks to go before a general election that will decide who will succeed. present mohammad, you bihari? joining us, we have out 0 correspondent ahmed address already. so good to have you here. welcome to the street. welcome back to the stream. we are so good about knology or an election starts and weeks away. most people that feels like a very long time, but campaigning has been going on. pretty much all 2022. what is it like to be nigeria right now? is there election fever? are people wary? what are they like? a combination of both and mall. basically you're looking at an event that occurs probably once every 4 years. nigeria is a lot of live excited though the company, it's a bag. for some people, businesses, it's good business die that will make money from the politicians and that in preparing election mosquitoes in preparing campaign bye to this and all that again
7:35 am
. on the other hand that i concerns regarding the elections that are hopes and aspirations that are also frustrations. people are frustrated about their policy and some of the past 4 years, 80 years since the return. of course it's, it's a question of expectations not met disappointments on the part of voters, but again, one of the most interesting things for me, people may think that because of these frustrations nigeria is, was sort of sit back and forget about the max. rather, showing some interest in the election. it's not so. a few months ago the election commission conducted a new registration exercise for people who are for to the age of the voting is to people who lost the cards and things like that. and they registered many 1000000 just on the register, so it shows you that there is interest in the campaign process. but again, it also could be because of the new faces in the election unless we haven't yet.
7:36 am
yeah, i mean, let's look at, look at some of the candidates. i'm curious or any candidates under 100 years old because my jewelry and politicians tend to be on the senior side. so we put together 3 potential presidents for niger won't know till the end of february. but let's take a look. this is paula to nubile. what do we need to know about bala? while i was governor, political stage is credited with transforming mego state from berry and performing state to one of the most vibrant states in the past may go stages among it's probably the only state one of the few states in the seller is without relied from grants from the federal government, it's economy, it's robust business, it's there, and he's been credited with transforming. they go. state is what it is today. he's also credited with raising a lot of political people in this country,
7:37 am
from ministers from the vice, even the vice president with his for my age and when he was governor, lots of things. yeah, absolutely. and apc for the all progressive congress. we saw a little bit of attic who apple backer. this is from the he's a candidate from the people's democratic party. and then also we're going to look at peace. obee, who is from the labor party, tell us the difference between the people some credit party candidate and peter opi . now, he toby, was running, made surprisingly, it will be, will be right, made to quote booker in the previous election in 2019. now peter will be dropped out of the presidential race and the pdp to join the labor party because he felt that if one of the shortest car for him to become president. and there is a lot of a band what good effect with what he told me right now. of course my many nigeria is young. nigeria is are frustrated with the way people over the age of 7080. and
7:38 am
even ninety's been handling this country. they find it difficult to relate with these elders. now you know how it is enough. okay. especially if not get away. we are told to respect our elders and people hardly criticize elders, but they see people will be a young man that they can criticize and confront when it needs to be. and that is helping p, toby gather some support on admitted approach. however, that is not the end of the discussion. that serious challenges a piece will be seems to be sort of becoming more and more popular with younger voters as well as votes from the south. there is an unwritten agreement by the way, to me because i didn't politicians after every 8 years of power in a particular region and the north for example, after bahati paid blood is 80, is the power power is supposed to ship to the south of the country and peter will
7:39 am
be represent that not because he is from the south, but because a lot of people feel that they was hobbled, presented a presidential candidate or even won a presentation election in not yet at 692 sixty's. when nobody has equate became the president wall officer morning role because it was a positive interest system of government. so a lot of people wanted to give me that benefit of the doubt and they wanted to see a young and vibrant person leading. i did it, however, they feel there are many and i get us will feel that people will be as inexperienced and perhaps hasn't understood the re guess a politics in a country like it, but a format. so a formal yeah. yeah, yeah. but a form of government. absolutely. and you mentioned 3 human to 3 candidates by the way. yeah. but the fact of the matter is that it's another full force to the we're talking about revenue more so now
7:40 am
a bullet to nibble is expected to do well in the southwest of the country. and there are elements of the ruling part of the apc while willing to both boiler. i mentioned it to power. but again, in the know, the, there are a lot of, or just going to global also because it's based in the south of the country in the southeast a peak just read to me from one of the south is stage. no, cool. now i'm going to, i'm going to move on a little bit because we spent the entire show talking about potential candidates and the divide between the north and the south. i want to bring in some voters voices because they seem quite engaged with the process. and these voters were in my to carry, which is in the northern part of nigeria was often seen as the most part of the nigeria. and this is from november. this is what they had to say about voting in february as live uh what's before, because now i get my right choice. that's why i'm, what's yes. yes, this is my choice. that's why i'm, what's in these them are on your circle we are facing. is that the lead us we have
7:41 am
no, dear, won't give was our choice it when we, if we have voted for our choice. ah, there will be one for optics. always have any opinions about nigerians when it comes to politics, but who is listening to how the election is run the infrastructure for the elections that that is part of the story for not driven election. surely i telephone. i absolutely the infrastructure, the process itself is based on previous experiences. we're seeing how electrons run in such a stage. i electrons don't whole in such an area. and then you see snatching speed violence, manipulation results and all that. then they go to court and the court declared judgment on these cases. however, the elections this year will be so close, by the way. i mean, it's so close right now that the election commission is even thinking of the
7:42 am
possibility of having a run off in that genet this. this will be the 1st step by the right. and this is because of the mix, the mix of the presidential candidate median position. so talking about, well, i mentioned it was party is the governing party was just a solid base across nigeria. the pdp, which has been for 16 years, is also a solid political part of the country and the, the labor party, which peter or b is a flag bearer, is an up and coming polish, took part in judah and his direction. and again, the puzzles we are talking about is robin was so close from carlo. we set to divide that northern vote. so that used to be in choosing procedures, right? i he's own show we, we obviously need to show that the not june election and it could just be ahmed and maybe want to guess, but i don't think we necessarily need guess. i'm going to bring one more. louis, this is really important. this is abby olds. and she's executive director of global
7:43 am
rights nigeria, wondering about how well these elections will be run. this is what you told us. now it's already been estimated by this day newspaper that mom and 608 to 6 wards of the 8812 wards in nigeria and not safe for elections if almost 8 percent of all of the wards in nigeria and not safe for electrons, can those electrons be considered free of fair? you need to think about the fact does that affect security as well? that there's so much divisiveness, so much hate speech. there's a lot of fake news out there. i so and dave, yeah, go ahead on my favorite play that's. that's what on. and by the way, it's not only in those local government she's talking about, it's a problem that you're subtracting the whole of nigeria from the north east. well, quite, i'm still a little post in that region where bender trees in the north west of the country
7:44 am
and the central parts of large a better tree and keep not being could not be across nigeria. and in the fall is what we witnessing over the past few years. if the rise of a separate just will probably be operable, but be independent people. so yeah, for which has been burning and talking on the stations and election officers in the country. so a lot of concern is being raised about the possibility of conducting peaceful elections in this area. this character was promising to support the elective commission to come back up very much, but a lot of niger, but leave the elections of such an interest in the country as a way things. remember, i'm going to stop us now because it will be 10 weeks election time. but i wrap this up right now on youtube. let me just tell you, some of the feedback that we're getting realize are says it's difficult for the youth to participate. they feel left out in government issues. emani, thank peter opie, would have had a fighting chance as people see him as the only candidate who really had
7:45 am
a vision. but his choice for the p was not well thought out. and then on twitter, some thoughts here. what are the and during elections about religion? have a look here on my laptop, ethnicity, tribalism. and in my jury of politics, pivots around economy and religion. we have 10 more weeks to discuss and june elections. and i'm an address will be with us, but for now i think thank you very much and i really appreciate your analysis. the thing the next we moved to sudan falling a p still between military leaders and a coalition of pro democracy parties. could that be peace in 20? $23.00. hello. hey, is a political it adolescent joins us from london. hello. it's really good to see you . i want to start festival with a little report about where we are with see done with the latest framework deal with a deal that frank was a transition to civilian running of sudan. that transitional
7:46 am
process has been for stored. and this is how we reported it on december. the 5th on out of there that's have a look, a new deal between for dance, military and political parties, the framework agreement aims to and the political deadlock. it allows for a new transitional government, more than a year after the military depots, the previous one, has a rocket. the reality has made us remove all cells and all political interests and place the interests of the nation and the people above all things. every time we speak, people are unhappy with whatever deal there is, whatever, till they is it. so if you were going to characterize this spring, what deal? what would you say it is as, as neutral as you can be if that's even possible. what from the table and in many
7:47 am
ways the feel is a placebo. it makes us feel good. it makes signatories feel like they're signing up to something that will, you know, realize the dreams and the sort of the desires of the 2018 revolution, which we have to remember, unseated the 3rd year dictates permanent machine, but it is a placebo. and this is just the most and emotional reaction, it's very difficult to see how we move from this to the actual difficult work of dealing with the issue that, you know, lead people to take to the streets in the 1st place. i'm thinking about who's left out because whenever sudan gets together, the military political leads, sometimes the people often left out. there are always people who left out of, of that, of, of that phase. and then that then means that where, wherever you've, whatever you've achieved, you can't then go on to the next phase because people be left out and then they become your position voices and they stop the progress from happening. if there is
7:48 am
to be progress, are we in that same situation again? absolutely. i mean this deal hasn't really done anything different. in fact, it has in many ways reproduced all the was characteristics of previous he'll be. they physical settlements like this one or piece deal. and what's different now is that you have, you know, something you reported on many times, which is this, you know, very large body, call the resistance committees who are robust independent and had to maintain the momentum approach to democracy activities for the past 4 years. this month and they are completely outside of this framework. there are other groups as well who outside of, it's like the limits were loyal to the ship. and some former rebels who signed the piece of the 2020. but by and large, the people you want to have them for the future constituents in an election, a completely out of this deal. so thinking about how it's going to, you know, sort of bring about the kind of changes,
7:49 am
transformational changes that people that i want to see. it could be very difficult without them is i'm just looking at my laptop here. the us i'm back to to see dad. why does the us say there is now a credible path to final agreement that will take that out of the current political crises. we respectfully urge all sudanese stakeholders to seize that opportunity. that is optimism right there. why, i mean, the international community needs the steel to work out, and i think that that's sort of why you, you see a lot more optimism, a lot more support for the feel within the international community, particularly western countries. more than you see within, you know, so domestic communities and constituents. and so this is led to the sense of the steel is actually for the international community that they are the one who get the most out of it. they get to restart their age, you know, they have all this in the funding that hadn't been able to be spent since the qu,
7:50 am
they get to re engage with the government. once again, there are certain countries, particularly in the region thinking of the us in particular, who wants to sign deals related to, you know, comic interests, et cetera, and all of that unpalatable off to the, to and now this sort of sanitize of the feel sanitize of relations and engagement with the sydney government. but how this sort of translates to steal translates into, you know, transformative changes for people, for them is still very much up in the audio respective design. and she's a researcher and she was skeptical about this deal, which instantly has to be ratified and sign and signed off in, within 30 days. the everything has to be achieved by mid january, which is an incredible task for that to happen. this is what ms and told us earlier . this still is manifest and very little change in our reality in sudan and from what i witnessed. it has no impact on the strength or the frequency of the process
7:51 am
. there continue in reject of any form of military rules. so. busy dislike them. cotton resistance committees spokesperson was described that it is more different from the 2019 agreement as they are both agreements between fractions of the lead coming together to stop any realty in a real democracy in any real em redistribution of wealth that serves the majority of his in his population, am is also another tempt my, their international committee, a site in 2019 to force a government of killers on us. and to some of these revolution. i cannot forget the lease a $120.00 protest as few were killed during the crew of 2021. where is the justice for those people who died literally just protesting, raising their voice, saying, this is what we want for our country. where he sat in the still frankly, nowhere you know the deal and you have to remember the framework agreement is a preliminary deal. the final deal is you said it meant to take place to be signed off on a month off the initial deal. so early january and within that timeframe,
7:52 am
justice is a big issue that is meant to be spoken about. it's meant to be negotiated on that meant to be consensus around that. but the already signed that actually the signature of audi agreed to some level of amnesty and immunity for the 2 main general to lead last year to which already constrains the extent to which people can feel justice is done. and we have to remember this, the country where does this for the full? it's still 17 years in the making and 12 of the very sort of slow, slowly coming together. there's a lot of resistance on the resume and call to me about supporting those trials. we have currently several cases of miss cards of justice as a 17 year old boy. mm hm. and adam known locally a to puck, who had been, had undergone torture to exact a full confession. in his cases becomes of the land mild cases. it would show the extent to which traditional defense is going to be quite intrusive and has had thank you so much for giving us your view of what is likely to be making headlines in 2020 through 2023 from sudan. appreciate you. many. thank you. bye me.
7:53 am
finally, 2023 is set to be a p t f, as in bob way with the countries present, expected to face a strong challenge in a general election privilege. mr. here he is a journalist coverings in bob where he joins us. he's placing doha, qatar at the moment, but looking ahead to the election candidates privilege, we have 2 options or other more than 2 options. privilege. where are we? was in bobby's elections. basically is you have said there are 2 major contenders. yes. the incumbent president. and my son, monongahela, and nelson and musa, with leading the new opposition formation. the citizens cooperation for change. of course, there is a league you and of other small political parties, but these are the 2 main candidates to main figures. when you about when you
