to cation system fish really bad and our health system it's completely broken nothing is working. in all areas things are not going well. but there. was good we are going to hell no one is listening to us and the country is so badly managed the country is really badly managed that's why i'm asking the president to step down and leave power so that people can live in peace they don't resent that i think that. the protesters are also angry at the president's failure to end fighting between jihadist groups and ethnic militias in the north and center of the country. violence there has killed nearly 2000 people in the 1st 6 months of this year alone. one opposition figure determined to bring about change is

scientist but also thanks for joining us 1st tell us how critical is the situation in mali. situation in money is very critical because for a 3 months now and there have been demonstrations calling for a year or resignation of the president when will look like a duck and i saw calling for a year. reversion of the election results or during the parliamentary elections in in there may in march and april of this year so the situation is. very tense right now because there is a mediation by the economic community of west african states that has been ongoing for 2 months and there doesn't seem to be agreement between the rest african origin or organization the government and the main movement calling for the resignation of president and when we're going to get there which is a move of the year trying to are and it is even more critical because during the
