an attempt to keep. this policeman is trying to keep trying the street it's only the beginning of the morning rush hour but traffic is already jammed try sickles and motorbikes known as okada are by far the cheapest and fastest mode of transport. this is one of the easiest ways of getting through heavy traffic in lagos but soon people here won't be able to ride a motorbike any more. the government or abused at motorbikes cause too many accidents but many depend on them for their livelihoods plenty of small commercial companies have popped up in recent years that's on top of thousands of drivers who operate on their own for all of them the ban is a huge blow. the it is a beaut this is the. people you. meet who do.

so. the government come out with thoughts. from. no bike on the highway everybody is going to. read or write on board. because we know all about things to do. these by profession by now. as the public transport not broken lagos is far from sufficient many costumers depend on okada us to get around. even stop making quite my hide if you don't buy the leadership was. having to take off to provide any means of transportation for people but the lagos state government is adamant. people get into this much to get their lives broken the government just

said you know he's not we got mostly because we do not want to touch anything right track right now and that's these bloody symbols go t.v. and he suggests the okada ban might also free up young drivers to take up other professions young people who are no longer able to live through everybody talking or not gotta know if you go up paint as you do i viewed as you have to last the 2 sons are very scarce now that was not easy to show before kind of. it's not the 1st time that lagos has imposed a ban on motorbikes so far it never really ripped the commissioner sads government will introduce more bosses and better roads this time but as traffic in lagos keeps getting busier it's hard to see how people here will manage the okada.

now the swedish climate of his gratitude hosted a press conference today to highlight the work of young african activists in the fight against climate change it's in response to last week's backlash after an african activist was it raised from a social with too big and other white peers now in case you missed the story a week ago the group of young climate activists were in switzerland for the world economic forum after a press conference they posed for a picture together now this is the picture a photographer from the associated press took a look and they and this next fake chap is the picture that was published in the end now as you see the only black person who was in the frame was cut out not that person was venice and climate activists from uganda that when word got out that she'd been cropped out of the picture many people were on fend it on twitter one used to say it like vanessa that you. to raise her as vanessa when you cropped out

of the photo you raised a continent africa and it hurts and the other one treated this part of the nisei is symbolic of how the media has been consistently cropping out youth off color from the narrative when they cover the climate action movement so my guest today is none other than the ugandan activist and that's in a concert herself this morning as it took part in a press conference with brigitte following that cropping that picture cropping saga it focused on climate change in africa welcome to news africa vanessa we'll talk about the press conference in a moment but 1st i want to ask you when you said that you were cropped out of that picture you said that a continent had been but i want to know how you personally felt when you sold that picture and that you've been cropped out of his. when i saw that chair i felt so frustrated and this is because i had stressed out

the point during the press conference to the media that it is important for them to report stories from different parts of the world i really showed disappointed when i phoned i had been cropped out of the photo. wives were in choose but the action made us to mean to me i went ahead and read the article actually and i was not introduced as one of the activists who had the press conference none of my records from the press conference was included in the article it really made me feel so sad . for this and no one looking at your twitter feed can really get a sense of that some of the statements that you've put out in response to it but you took part in a quite a press conference today alongside you'll hear that would be great to. tell me what was the objective off the press conference i understand it was in response to this picture copy. the objective of the press

conference was mainly to put the climate crisis in africa for everyone to see this press conference gave an opportunity to different activists from are free to air out their stories and to to know of the sufferings and the agony that different people face as a result of the climate crisis from different parts of the continent. it is a way to do your activism journey begin and tell me what it is that moved you to get up and do something about climate change in africa. well in may 2018 after school i wanted to do something that of course change in the lives of the people of my country i grew up seeing my dad or tyrian get involved in various activities that provided solutions to people who are facing such and challenges i was moved to do the same thing but i was not specific of the kind of

activism that i would do in the beginning i carried out research to find out the major problems that are 1st by the people in my country and i found quite a number of them like unemployment corruption poverty i'm. but i was really struck by climate change i decided to read more about teach to understand its courses and the available this is what drove my activism. and business of what is your message to the world off to this incident off the picture. i want to know the word that every voice mark does and every process and mottoes it is responsible for all of us to respect and listen to the voices of people regardless of where they come from because every voice has a story to and every story has a solution to give and every solution has a life to change so it is important for the wound and everyone else to give

opportunities to different people regardless of where they come from to give them platforms regardless of where they come from and to amplify their voices because there are many activists out there who are trying as much as possible to be listened to to be had but their own name being had only seen 2 by anyone so it is important for all of us to respect them and give them a chance to air out their challenges and the solutions that they have to offer that spend this and that in uganda thank you. while africa is bearing the brunt of climate change many solutions are being produced on the continent particularly in agriculture which is one of the main contributors of greenhouse gases researches in kenya say they found a way for cattle farm is to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve their income treating

a growing population means farmers are seeking more space for their herds to graze in kenya cattle farms are increasingly encroaching on forests. that's bad for the climate as forests soak up and store carbon dioxide from the atmosphere so when you cut down forests either to change it into. an order for grassland never stuck then you are in this thing a lot of carbon into the atmosphere to climate science but this humble plant could be the solution napier grass which grows wild across many east african countries researchers say cows fed on a pure grass produce less meter in a powerful greenhouse gas the organically fertilize grass produces less carbon emissions than other crops it's also richer in nutrients and carries fewer ticks some of the elements disappeared because some things need things that cannot be

digested but a lot of calls me it's getting so old that you've gotten away with it. and healthy cows produce up to 50 percent more milk that's welcome news for kenya's 2000000 small scale dairy farmers. papua farmers and healthier cows are just some of the fortunate side effects in the fight against climate change. and that is it for now from africa you can catch all our stories on our website and facebook page now as a motorbike band comes into effect this weekend in lagos believe you with some boy images of this load of transport used in so many creative ways on the continent to the next 5.
