1:19 am
tease but also their government over time then you know assisting that from their perspective and their research which was going to be by both countries does i mean and a brutally they should is that to bloom is that they have enough peace and security so that allow all refugees from but only to go back home. ok you've also spoken to some of these refugees and what do they say do they want to go back to but only it will stay in tanzania yesterday i had the interview with a well no but if you do from new delhi sort of a refugee camp in the district in a region telling the story that yes the that somebody from friends who are leading want to go back home because they think in their area they have enough peace and security so that they can go back and live
1:20 am
a peacefully but who think that they kind of go back because the story that they had from the 2015 year where they are killed in the corporately became during the election they don't think that there is peace if we nuff to go back there process so we're talking about moving 200000 people how long is this process expected to take. according to the minister for home affairs it from times i mean mr condit will go to he said that to the process of taking those imprudent if you do back home and on the fact of 50 december this year and i'll be asking i think that you can see how to make sure that they did to what he meant by that process all right that's prosper. africa thank you. about 150 years ago was born ceremonies have been taking place across india where gandhi lived the campaign for independence but it was during 2 decades of having in
1:21 am
south africa where the freedom movement lead and the values that came to define him nonviolent resistance in recent years i have a gun just time on the continent has been viewed in a different light. gandhi arrived in south africa as a young trade lawyer named modest the walls of the cottage where he once lived now a museum tell the story of how his experience of segregation shaped his life and changed the world. he had this notion of nonviolence passive resistance overtrick in a lot in our times right now on the streets of johannesburg it's a legacy that endures even if the details are vague. editors who don't know about that he threw off. the right to my right see i'm not like that they don't know but they know that if it is from india in india and hero he's a breeze barring person sees through town with different races know that he is
1:22 am
$100.00 legs i will say i'm going to cover. something up for no one in india. but you get in england lived in south africa. and there's a big incident on the train the winter games. but if you like and you don't want to believe that moment when gandhi refused to leave the white only compartment on a train opened his eyes to injustice set in motion a life dedicated to nonviolent resistance and carved himself into history yet his reputation here is tinge with accusations that while he fought for indians in south africa he ignored the plight of black people often using racist slurs. good person yes human yes and there is this for anybody else which
1:23 am
it was on leading south africa that gandhi's hosts named him my heart but meaning venerable soul. a century later the name remains to the criticisms of this complex character. now to shed some more light on this complex character let's bring in doug so by daily come one from the institute of african studies at the university of a welcome to data of the africa adults are so you were part of a move to take down the statue from your campus tell us why. you know it was based on primary firsthand research now a lot of people have lots of perceptions about gandhi but very few of it is based on his actual writings and his actual words so when the statue appeared because me myself i'm a senior research fellow and all i do is research i was already quite aware of who gandhi was in relation to the black people that is the indigenous people of africa
1:24 am
so when you actually go to his writings he refers to african people as savages after as half heathens as one degree removed from animals so whatever he is to his own upper caste endo ariens as he called himself and fellow colonists as he called the british what he was in relation to black people not just through his words but there was actions that he fought against those who knew people in the bottom rebellion that he fought to secure segregate that dharm in post and telegraph office is he fought to segregate the jails so that the laboratories that indians had to use were not the same ones that african people you know were allowed to use right so all of these things and then later on in his life he went back to india to fight against the indigenous black people they are the idea vices and ballots and so forth and so on you know this is who he was in relation to black people all right i mean because of we all talking about you know a great man in history so to say and you know god is universally celebrated as an
1:25 am
anti colonial hero and in south africa he did stand up against white minority rule in fact some have even gone as far as arguing that he paved the way for nelson mandela so in some way does he deserve some pace in in african history other than some of the things that you have just told us. well you know already you have people who have the perception or gandhi is so great and so forth and so on in my opinion is saying that he paved the way for nelson mandela is not necessarily a compliment because if you look in south africa the problem that the people of south africa suffered from was genocide and not you know apartheid which is just being apart from the ones who are committing the genocide you can look at the same thing people say well martin luther king was so great a problem there was also genocide and i'm referring to the un definition of genocide which is a 5 part definition killing members of the group causing serious bodily a member mental harm to members of the group writing about conditions to destroy
1:26 am
the group in whole or in part so forth and so on so again if you look at the problem of black people in the u.s. as well as genocide and not segregation and then the same thing in india so in all 3 places you have the images of mandela of king and of gandhi where the problems that the black people suffer from are is actually tantamount to genocide and is not oh you're all right talk from them meanwhile you know the exact same ones who are doing this are the ones who shove them down our throat so i think this is a major issue all right that's that's all that data come on from the university off gonna. now we've covered sudan extensively on this program especially the turmoil around the else still off the phone the president all the shit and the subsequent political developments as we speak in new transitional government is in place and today we have a good report the country's 1st ever women's football has kicked off in the capital hard too and it's a major achievement for everyone involved. a landmark
1:27 am
moment for sudan the opening match of the country's 1st ever women's football a t. even the match officials at the game in khartoum with female. and yellow to come to how do you know a game which would have seemed impossible just a few months ago when the muslim majority nation male fans watched as well as female supporters and the new minister of sport one how 1st of all this is a great historic day in the history of sudan with the opening of the 1st women's football league this is the result of a huge effort that did not just start today or yesterday. the championship involving $21.00 clubs comes after the army overthrew longtime ruler omar al bashir in april was a new joint civilian military body is now ruling the country for a transitional period activists hope the start of the women's football league is one of a series of liberal policies promoting freedom of speech women's rights and the us

. have to do so then they are not there for the sudanese revolution my goal was to perhaps play outside sudan but since i found a place to play in my own country i don't want to play a proud it's better to play in your own country that i've lived in. the silky skills on the show wowed the 8000 strong crowd. and this was the 1st time i played at the stadium in khartoum it was something really great and special. was it ended in a $22.00 draw was the joy of the players when scoring a goal showed how much it meant to everyone involved was and that is it for now from dayton is africa you can catch all our stories and i'll have size and facebook page leaving just found that says if a woman. going
