this is student news africa coming up in the next fifteen minutes the islamist insurgency in west africa that's showing no signs of abating attacks are intensifying in book unify songs and the new government is calling for help we'll learn just how bad things have become. then we meet the ugandan boy who's saying he dances but not for fact. and the film on the walls in the democratic republic of congo wins best movie awards in the african oscars in while the duke. i'm christine want to welcome to news africa i'm glad you're cheated in we begin with west africa's growing islamized insurgency which is seeing attacks intensify under-rated to the new targets burkina faso the number of violent incidents in

which enough of these are incidents against two local affiliates of al qaeda and the so-called islamic state rose by one hundred twelve between two thousand and seventeen and two thousand and eighteen these numbers come from the report by the africa center for strategic studies now the threat initially came from the northern side held region that is along the border with mali as you can see shaded on the map then the attack spread further east near the border with a toll go and i mean now the government recently declared a state of emergency in fourteen provinces in an interview with g.w. the president of the country and boris say it its army is in need of support. for example. for example we should be gets an armored vehicles for our troops but a year later you tell us it's one p. possible for an opera yet this presents us with the practical problem of a terrorist on the tweeting for me to be equipped to fight. ok let's delve more

into this i'm now joined by. cos she is the chair off the african security six admit to it now that it will come to the news africa have what is at the roots off this insurgency. and in fact i think it is very important consider that there are different kinds of attacks which means that you have also a different kind of intrusion here as. in the north of africa in particular are in the sunni region of the very top of the country and those that are that are generally if you will just junks groups called on family flat or estates and over more. and last one days and you go home to our east by your leader and named after her we were all really wildly fighting in the

lead so this is sort of yes it's not us or our east and south of the country and the picture is they're rather different and they are. initially you are right though that the little aspect in it that the growing very. gently and hope to connect with the local community it is different kind of insurgency all right so the that the terrorism has changed the lives of hundreds of thousands in the affected regions hits us and again president. and so from hundreds of schools are closed more than one hundred thousand children cannot go to school it is a great challenge for us to york in the schools so that the children can learn again and the fact that children do not go to school it is also a breeding ground for terrorism for its reinforcements and its strengthening for

small. india that lead the former president had an agreement with the terrorists and they will feel are attacks in the country at the time is president bora himself partly to blame for this latest insurgency. i think it is very difficult to think in a few quick what's up and in fact it was to put it into a global reach the former president used to work on their own rainbow only there are groups some liberals are going to result not in groups and in particular yes and he will eventually believe they are open. for business and. we don't even want to do good for europe and in fact. probably get you to be the new york integration yet a million crazy. when you work on your words again change but i don't think that it

can break out in some people are so i think are appealing to the north side and are being supported by or even president obama every what is. in there and not the regime. and. again need very little or all future and so it will all be which are. all right yet in the book you know fossil is part of a regional counter-terror force millions of euros have been promised to this group from the international community so this looks like a lot of resources have been pumped into into the effort of contracting this all this insurgency why is it still growing as much as it is. well you could very important to understand what you did monday original force

which is cool that you find that out in fact you jump for i don't want to insure you only under borders. five countries which are a part of you friday it's five countries don't worry you know him and he can you share a chat and good enough for them so the story is already inside you to make such rules were wrong there are common borders and actually the reason why aren't you are so crude and rude we are going to that you need or two years out of a lot of countries loredo loony think we've explored the i'm not sure if it's only a matter of trickery yeah ok negative i'm going to have to cut you off thing that is about yoko she is the chair of the african security sake of network thank you. break dancing has come a long way since it was invented by african american kids in the one nine hundred
