i think carbs would be good morning stiffish to. turn to. the shins from around the world. every week to w. . this is t.w. news africa coming up in the next fifteen minutes algeria after abdelaziz bouteflika eighty two year old has lost his grip on power but is his resignation enough to usher in a new era. and a massive cholera bax a nation program gets underway in mozambique often outbreak of the deadly disease.

i'm christine window while come to africa i'm glad you're choosing to in algeria today is without abdelaziz bouteflika as president after twenty years of his role in his two decades in power the eighty two year old weathered many a stroll including the arab spring in twenty eleven and a stroke two years later that nearly took his life on tuesday evening which of fecal resigned off to six weeks of protests in the country. not yet this is the end of what to flick of a new era for that country a day after all the leader abdul aziz bouteflika resigned with immediate effect. celebrations went on deep into the night across the country the people finally gets in what did been wanting for weeks. that we are happy with would have because of resignation. it's the power of shame

the elite have to go to most all even they must be held accountable. this is. the beginning of the end for butter flickers political career came six weeks ago when he announced he would seek another term in office and eighty two year old had to drop his plan after a nationwide protest the. pressure continued to mount common meeting in the country's powerful army turning against protests like oh well. how decision is clear. and there is no turning back. we will support the people until their demands are fully and completely satisfied. then the moment our jury ends how long awaited for state t.v. broadcasting images of the president coming over his resignation letter. that is a departure enough to satisfy all jerry ans a lot of demonstrators signaled they don't just want with a flicker they want to hold the anti-apartheid truck child to taking the first step

reasoning enough to celebrate i am. for some more insight on the political developments in algeria i'm joined by the special welcome to the africa why we're algerian says oh against the idea of a running for a fifth term well first i would like to mention that. what time of the sabbath beautifully something or decide something this is the version of the algerian the regime isn't it because i was hit by a serious joke some six years ago and he's not able to do so since that. is living under a political try this is even longer than that and the people of syria was not able to protest against this because they were too intimidated because they were constantly reminded of the civil war in the nine hundred ninety s. was with over two hundred thousand thousands of dead and now what changed the

people who are protesting against but if it does fifty candidacy for a fifth since over seven weeks because they have broken the wall of fear and because they have no no longer ready to accept the situation and to be humiliated by being ruled by a picture of a president and also because of the constant interesting. situation of their lives inside the country ok so we're talking about a resignation that comes in there was weeks of protests but it's really when the military decided it was then to take action did we see that resignation come through is this the will of the people of the will of the military here well it is apparently the military who pushed with the flipper to resign but of course it's rather the will of the people the military the military chief gets out of himself was set by between or into his position some thirteen years ago and he is known for

being one of the most loyal allies of the since since and even in the beginning of the protest he tried to threaten the people and to recall them of the civil war and mention the situation in libya and syria the civil war there but that didn't succeed and the protesters were able to gather more than twenty millions and the protests and. the friday is next after his speech so i think he got afraid of his proper skin and what his trying now is to to find a solution in order to to stay in power and the whole regime is trying to to stay right in a certain sort right so which if you because resign now it's been twenty is he's finally headed that resignation does this mean it's a new era for the country yes and no yes because the people have for the first

time since the independence of our journey from france in ninety six to sixty two the feeling that they have really the power to decide over the best and. there weren't a sense that because of their live in a dictatorship and now they think it could be a real chance to change this mode of governance and now because this is only a battle that they want over a very deep rooted and complex regime and they try to add to it also the whole regime that's their position all right so. what if it's term was going to come to an end i think it's twenty seventh of april there was going to be an election that was canceled so what happens now well what we see is that the army chief is trying to find a transition inside the actual constitution and that would mean that the leaders of the transition would be members of of the regime the people are calling for that

and the people would not or will not be i will not accept such a maneuver so i think they trying to do so but even the actual constitution in its article seven has a solution for the crisis and it is about giving back the power to the people in order to give them the possibility to to cause the approval of a new constitution ok. is i share. with insight on the political developments in algiers in algeria thank you thank you. and on that story is in mozambique when a call or a vaccination program started today the campaign is targeted to reach nearly nine hundred thousand cycling survivors in the country as officials rush to contain an outbreak of the disease that cholera outbreak was brought on by. its killed two

people and infected more than a thousand. base of five the site clone now the risk of something they can't even see coming cholera people in makeshift shelters are in the most danger here clean drinking water and other sanitation is sorely lacking. i stayed in the water for three days the cycling destroyed us there's nothing here we're hungry i don't have a home anymore but there are lots of us here and we all need help it hurts. some help is on its way these cholera vaccines were drawn from an emergency supply in india being given to those in the worst affected areas it's a race to stem the outbreak and convince the skeptics. we need to do is to move all of. us to deal of the.

feed. that up and i got the vaccine together with my child but what i want most is help to rebuild my home it was destroyed by the cycle and i want to go back there. cholera is spread from human waste in the water supply it causes severe diarrhea left untreated can lead to death within hours so making people aware of what color is and treating the water with purification products are also vital steps. doing is really trying to make sure that fifty eight communities have access to safe water they have safe sanitation in they also practice good hygiene. while aid is coming in from abroad people in mozambique are trying to do their bit to help to . here and now in the north american musicians put on

a dish that brings us together and which we're all proud of. i believe that in these four countries there's not a friday when you don't find the smell of course of course. because he is now popular in many parts of the world but its origins lie in northern africa where it's been used for well over a thousand years. it's called it's a bribe or words it's derived from the noise of the movements i'm making with my hands on the sound of the seat in the basin and the bracelets the women used to wear so it's this gesture that gave couscous its name. of course course scots says intense rivalry between algeria morocco mauritania and to old claiming to be the home of coast but now they're prepared to look past years of antagonism to secure the coveted un heritage status for the food the next couple occasion will be examined in december. and that's it for now from the
