you simply program the night from for an agenda the. busy town i would say don't you come smash africa join us on facebook w. . illiam puzzle you so long it's not easy to go to another country you know nothing about the wife of a young do this because we can't stay on venezuela. constantly global news that matters d. w. made for martin's. this is deja news africa coming up in the next fifteen minutes after a resulting victory for president obama don't worry in nigeria his opponent will back up pushes on with his challenge to the results we'll look at how the allegations of fraud are hitting this weekend important regional battle. and fighting terrorism we have a story of the military exercise working to boost the capability of the african

army. then we'll let you in on the grand plan sera leone's government as well the country's endangered chimpanzees. and pristine wonderwall come to deeds every news africa it's good to have you along nigeria returns to the polls this weekend for a series off regional elections taking place in the shadow of last week's presidential for the official results of that election was a clear victory for the incumbent. over his challenger who. has cried foul over the votes and complained of widespread fraud the main electoral body has now granted him the rights to inspect election materials ahead as he.

challenges the results in the meantime some of the supposes have been questioning the point to voting in this weekend's poll to potential voters in lagos one of the places where regional elections will be taking place. here we're going to vote and i'm never in a party i don't like any party sure. i'm sure me over to do. a lot of work for the government but i'm this is you know and i do that under my right to stop which as i have my piece because you got. a mike i'm not watching. for more on this let's bring in deeds every correspondent florida hi flourish good to see you first how much all of these regional elections a six said by the presidential vote. well it is believed

that whoever wins the presidential vote in the presidential election or whatever party raised the presidential election has a higher chance of a regional level but then it's just that's just the general belief here but then if you remember the presidential elections had pockets of violence in different parts of the country and many people are saying that's going to affect the number of people that are going to actually vote on saturday and fresh i know you've been talking to people in the streets there but what are people saying about what turnout is likely going to be. well a lot of people that i spoke to many of the people i spoke to said they were not going to come out and vote and i think if you just try to few of the polls of people here is to make sure of different emotions it's very very difficult to capture what everybody is feeling right now some people are very excited and happy

they're going to vote because they voted for president and he won well some are saying they don't think their vote is going to count so it's really difficult to see at this point to whether our north the votes out to an impressive but you remember that the presidential election the voter turnout for that was the lowest in history here ok for so we know now that pool. has launched his challenge against victory. is there any chance he'll succeed is there any chance he will succeed is difficult for me to see if he actually has a chance but in other for him to succeed it will he would have to prove that according to the electoral law he would have to prove that there were actually electoral irregularities and many legal experts are saying that that is that's not really difficult part the difficult part is proving how those irregularities affected the outcome of the elections than experts are saying. it's on.

something that is going to be daunting what's equal to do right but does he have concrete evidence flourish. oh at this point he would be he would have to come out and see if he has any concrete evidence but just speaking to people around the video's screen are out of. fourteen polling stations where people were voting on several thousands of people but is that evidence enough for them to see that the results of the election do not stand. all right flourished in lagos and that surging terrorism and violence by armed groups in west africa and the sahara region around two thousand troops from more than thirty african and western countries have been taken in a military exercise in book enough fossil the it's

a side exercise me i should say court flintlock is a u.s. led bit aimed at boosting the capacity of african on me is in the region especially the g five say hell group which compromises work in a facile chad mali mauritania and. fred move when you was embedded in this military exercise and sent us this report. the. training field. so just from a common room you're not going to be terrorist it's a simulated attack designed to be there with stuff we are likely to encounter on the battlefield this is just an exercise. brings together more than pool thought from west africa europe on the u.s. . it's

a military exercise supported by the us enough rekha but it's been led by enough for every. five. you know when this exercise is over we've established relationships with established in iraq ability training and left behind real capability for security forces to be confident in their ability to deal with the security for security problems they face in their country or regional organizations like the g five said hell or the way chairs multinational joint task force. broke an officer a member of the dea five sahara has turned into a hotbed of violent extremism. terrorist target the french embassy and the meter headquarters in we're going to grow this official memorial reminds broken people of their loved ones who perished in the attacks. broken off was once a secure country but since two thousand and fifteen two hundred ounce of people

have been killed in terrorist attacks only in two thousand and sixteen thirty people in this restaurant where killed in a single day since that time. is different. we lost many people. we were badly hit financially. we lost our cars motorbikes and small stores were destroyed. we lost all those things. the government said they would help us but nothing has been done. we have the courage to carry all. this ahead is flooded with challenges ranging from food you security and terrorist related security threats to the negative impacts of climate change if you count on

the challenges the u.s. government is expanding its programs in this hell. i would say that we see the situation where burkina faso is in a fight and the fight is getting tougher all the members of the g. five so how were united in that fight but we don't. we don't. disabuse ourselves of the fact that we are in a tough fight we're making progress against that fight but we know that it's going to be a struggle over the long term and that's why our investments in developing partnerships are long term. now the training is over all eyes are underway stuff we come out it's not from the joint forces i'm told there would be fine there's conference from the hard disk groups without on the blocking of western troops but to achieve their goal they need to be people meant you know that to stand a chance in the fight and they need some guidance drawings to track down. in their

boss so here rejoin. we want to bring you this development a court in new york has thrown out a lawsuit that would have required the german government to pay damages to two tribes in the movie of the head a little and them a tribe was seeking compensation for the genocide off there and sistas more than a century ago when namibia was and the german colonial rule the tribes argued a legal exemption meant the case could be heard in new york but the judge found the court had no authority to rule against germany and we take you to sierra leone now into the story of the chimpanzee which is one of africa's most iconic animals but it's populations have been in gradual to time the american general primatology suggests that more than eighty percent off that population died between one thousand nine hundred ninety and two thousand and fourteen sierra leone

is now taking steps to reverse that trend and open up a business opportunity at the same time. serial loon has one of the highest concentrations of chimpanzees in the world and the country wants to keep it that way through sun through east like tulku garma the countries we happily teach in chimps rescued from captivity for you venture released back into the wild it's part of a renewed focus on the wildlife protection and the her mental education in syria and given more edge and see why natural disasters last year. the government has also recruited the world renowned primark just dr jean goodall to support the project. chimpanzees our closest living relatives so

when people know that this is the national animal that gives it an added import there's a will health authorities to clamp down on the illegal poaching hunting of of chimpanzees but as well as wildlife can sense the government is also looking to the economic returns made possible by the growing market for equal tori's them that is making it easier for tourists to enter the country and was. looking forward. to more chimpanzees sanctuaries will be build sayable the coppertone free town the government seeks to expand its eco tourism industry while those who seek god and its wildlife. well that's it for database africa for now you can catch all our stories on our website and our facebook page which we leave
