entrance to the camp that. trains kimi. then he will be. nice cheese and keeping. the story. must. start in january 27th on d w. this news africa coming up on the program they are unprecedented in the size and the out with 10 children destroy everything in the pop. of locos ravaging the east african subversion and threatening the food security of millions of people also coming out just imagining do they went through this cycle as you got close to entering that it was so it was really no study for me i almost felt like crying. we visit that plays

in commerce where many thousands of africans begun horrific journey into slavery in america. fighting for respect and equality we hear from the boxing club in nairobi inspiring young girls to fulfill that dream just. by. your welcome to the program now that there's a swarm of desert locust and they are up to no good they are eating their way across lots of east africa in the west to break some regions i've seen for 70 years so if you kenya the west affected and uganda. it's

a breeze thing for an invasion to authorities have advised citizens to stock up on food as the insects approach the border with kenya research as c.b. pulls on unprecedented threat to food security in some of the wilds most vulnerable countries. they eat and destroy everything on their way to. one swarm measured 60 kilometers long and 40 kilometers wide hundreds of thousands of acres of crops destroyed. people fight back with whatever means they have. we are more than 200 head is here and we all depend on this land for grazing. now it will be disastrous if we all perish without getting any help with this warms came from yemen then down from the sea to the horn of africa the unusual warm

temperatures off the coast are partly to blame the recent heavy rainfall has created the perfect breeding conditions the greenery that has sprung up is now fueling them it has almost become a desperate battle with the other. and it is that i was low on look at it again that there this one can be us thrown so long. in 6 that the guys that are destroying. well that are. agriculture is big business in the region here the kenyan national government is now increasing the efforts and spraying from the yeah this warms the spreading fast up to 150 kilometers a day the un's food and agriculture organization is raising the alarm now calling for international assistance it's the worst that we've seen in.

in 25 years and of course that we've seen. over 70 years the fear is that the locust numbers could increase $500.00 times in the next few months. joining me now is will go to johnny as a founder of the general consumer protection where the food and agriculture organization handles that thanks for your time so it's the worst locust 'd outbreak in decades across east africa what is causing this now. well to our knowledge it's really it's really the exacerbation of. better. climate conditions which has actually allowed the breeding of locust in eastern africa then does not this has not happened as you rightly say it for 4 decades in december we had 4 cycle of switch formed in then on so it cause

i don't look for moisture flames to come in the sun nothing in this allowed the locals to eat in mass and this locus can breed in millions and then if you sell out to really really dropped it so it is really you know me and f. octal or. climate conditions that have chains to make it suitable for the locals to predict ok that you think everything in the sites now how serious could the implications be. implications could be extremely serious am global figures so far report from ifill has shown that 821000000 persons outweight. in any nice enough in africa we have 227000000 busses who are who are going on in eastern africa contributes what they keep us and of these 200 in 27000000 and we see that in the last 3 to 4 years there has been an

app by system drought all floods could record in kenya more than 100 in 20 something persons died because of threats last year so that means that the the climate conditions then what they have what didn't go close could cause is going to be destruction to grow plants and also for us to lead and decided livelihoods of most of the population in eastern africa that the horn of africa ok so what advent action is needed to get rid of them. well now that you know cause that's already heightened there in quite a number of countries countries that did most it is kenya and somalia and ethiopia and then countryside or so south sudan and uganda it's also infests so in that hunt about freak out these are the countries about yemen so without it yeah

yeah sudan egypt how all infested it's going far east towards india pakistan iran and all these have been affected but then give it c.n.d. a lot of i think they saw one side and now that the locus has been seen in many slums of seal we have missions we have. as well as civilians yeah best thing for now to do. is to do some areas bring was safe this is sites and also sites ok look at the journey with the un's food and agriculture organization thank you very much for your time. so it's been about $200.00 yes since the transatlantic slave trade was abolished many tourists especially those of african origin often visit the continents to lend more about events that took place africa was home to several slave ports and

markets but has enough been done to properly manage the history in cameroon it form a slave site is still standing but locals think it's been neglected more than 400 years ago these beauty was home for comers cutoffs leads tolerance of men we men and children which seemed i can't hear in bindiya walking through this door of newry to many started a journey into slavery to europe and the americas. journalist and blogger so no one. is visiting b. bia with his friends from the history books i thought they were something arts abstract but today i've come myself to leave the whole of the horrific stories of our forefathers just entering there as soon as i stepped inside these gates. i put

myself in the place of our forefathers and just imagining the torture they went through the psychological torture of entering that gate it was really no study for me i almost felt like crying but i had to hold my ts the rishi stree has not translated to proper management for. most of the structures are covered in vegetation and the root leading to the police is yet to be constructed the current government is pushing to get be a record nice as the us call will heritage site these days just a few people like salome visit do you sleep. he's planning to write above the libya in his blog when you look at it you realize that. little has been done to develop the please us to make stories feel comfortable when they come in year and i really doubt that if that was really happening because our tories would not want to

recommend are not a person to come here the next time because the police really does not look hospitable fall for tories so i think that it's really important for the government to put the feet on the ground and to see how they can develop it it can really being a substantial income more an italian americans have treated a sister route to cameroon. rescissions see more than 10 percent of all africans who left the continent went through bia. at least 200 sheaves involved in the transatlantic slave trade we're on court here. he's a descendant of deuce who once lived in the sleeve in which he walks or part time as a tall guy every body have to contribute but he decides to see. also for me i try to create the group. think will be more of these counties to be see
