4:30 pm
vote. on you tube. hello and welcome to a new edition of the 77 percent my name is liz show and i'm thrilled to have your company today. here's what's coming up in the next 30 minutes. we're talking about the pens i make within a pen to police brutality in africa. we have to be up and coming influencers h. town kids break from the room a neighborhood of nairobi. and prima ballerina in lagos carries us off into the magical world of performing arts. what's the 1st thing that comes to your mind when you see a police officer across africa there have been many reports of the police abusing
4:31 pm
citizens for no apparent reason in south africa victims of police brutality and are now demanding change. eldorado park in soweto outside johannesburg police fire rubber bullets and protesting youths enraged at a police officer who shot a 16 year old in the head and chest. thank you notes and lives is there a new mission place. where music and. they are killing as they are marching us so we don't feel safe how we feel they've been. the victim nothing. was unarmed and living with down syndrome neighbors say he was shot because he did not respond to officers questions now the community demands on says from the authorities a provincial official arrives and finds a devastated mother. when
4:32 pm
you think that we. are going to be fair use boy do you know what it's supposed. to day like it's all. they want to do this world needs today only this. nothing julius's death comes as police face allegations of brutality throughout the country with 300 to 500 people killed by police bullets every year many south africans ask themselves if law enforcement still serves to protect. a week before the shocking death of julius we visited the el dorado park police station and establishment at the heart of a drug and gang ridden neighborhood many residents here believe the police is corrupt and in cohorts with dealers constable can see and could see there are
4:33 pm
rookies who wish to change that perception. to be honest i don't feel that i do. when i am called. demands is difficult our colleagues and i thought i was down myself i'll stay the course an aim to make a difference in what in the community mean this is saying about us. the young constables in el dorado pocket wage a daily war on drugs today constable could see and kinsey have taken an illegal drug labs apart and arrested a number of street dealers he does so much for the. good of. seeing that the police is actually doing something against the gangsters is well received. more safe and sound. so it's good skipping the communities more in the same sense you might imagine
4:34 pm
a small goldfish compensation one. does the listing scope is doing you don't knows the film by 29000 reported by corruption watch suggests police of the most corrupt public servants with abuse of power and bribery being right lawyer vic a stale in johannesburg wants to see more responsible police officers in charge he represents victims of police brutality and says the trend is systemic and has been institutionalized from the top. i think the problem with the police is that not sufficiently trained they don't just brought leadership the. police have told them to school which is the shoot. or want to insult so they think they can do this and what that piece of. back in eldorado park the shooting has stopped but the residents are still angry if nothing changes they say the police station will be burned down they demand an accountable police that protects
4:35 pm
and serves its people. it's not just in south africa where calls for justice and police brutality are getting louder we ask people across the continent how they feel about their relationship with the police in that country. when everyone says police here in uganda what comes their mind one is the impunity to. torture 3. iris with no explanation because that's what police has painted themselves as. we must have action like that with ashley to actually give you security you know. cause you want to use your so it's there.
4:36 pm
actually it's also not a beat it's also because. we is young people we are fearful of those were supposed to be protecting us. in democratic societies we see police officers are supposed to protecting the citizens but in our kids it is the affairs they are the ones where to maintenance the police officers have to sort of go back to school and be told how to handle the public. well you heard it lovejoy from zimbabwe suggested that educating police officers could help tackling this pan african problem. we also want to shift our focus away from the problem itself and instead find the solutions that's why we took our street debates to kenya's capital nairobi by calling it a committee met up with victims and activists discuss what needs to be done to improve the relationship between law enforcement officers and citizens.
4:37 pm
the 77 percent has been to italy we've been to germany and now we're back in the capital city of kenya nairobi and it's in this country that in march a curfew was put in place as a covert prevention measure and it's reported by the human rights watch that in the 1st 10 days of that curfew 6 people died at the hands of police officers and so today we are asking who do you turn to when you need protection from the police and as you can see there are no uniformed police officers here we did send them an invitation literally camped at their office but they did make it but the show must go on and so i'd like to begin this conversation with perpetual karaoke shoes actually from the kiowa social justice center but beyond that you know this idea of police brutality it's not just abstract to you it's affected your family you know a very personal way could you please tell us about that. brother.
4:38 pm
so. by then i couldn't follow up the case because we had no idea our. reporting can you tell us how your brother came to even be in contact with the police in the 1st place so from the story we were told by the police is that he would he went to his friend health who was a wanted guy and the guy got out and locked him up. and that's when the police came and executed him and. there was no. mention of you're under arrest we're here for you because of such and such no no no no. so standing next to his from amnesty international does this sound like some of the reports you're putting in place because you know when you talk about the numbers it's easy to forget that these human beings behind them what is the situation currently if based on your own assessment on police
4:39 pm
brutality and well the quote from here. clearly this happens especially in urban areas where are the fight against crime is a fight against the use of that area. just like what happens in the u.s. in black people where the police decide about the policing in this area is going to be punitive. and we have seen very many cases and during this period the been pretty kisses particularly. young people a 13 year old boy that's crazy we're talking from much because that's when we had our 1st case here in kenya 20 people 20 people ok i want to speak to my band who is a musician and a blogger and a resident of these low income areas mother have you been in a situation where you felt the police were being violent towards you exactly i've been in that situation several not once not twice i can't count. for one reason
4:40 pm
just my physical appearance just having dreadlocks makes me a criminal so that has has made me come to the police so many times so much that i've become more i just add to that you know like i know really how i will be able to respond to a policeman also based on how he approaches me here so let's come to gander we're hearing already some very staggering stories so what you must be getting in your office must be out of this world how many cases do you get an average of people complaining about police behavior between march. ready. because of june we deceived over 500 complaints and then i want to see that those are not police killings stunts those are big flaw i thought and serious here is of course pretty scary but they are but isn't that so how many has i poor how many convictions has a poor managed to get. 6 convictions. on life
4:41 pm
sentences and hanging and hanging but i don't want to look at that statistic come on i knew but one must do that we understand that the cases take really long and i just issue a service also has its problems but if you're saying 500 complaints in a span of a couple of months and 6 convictions since a body was formed possible for all the complaints that we get not adopting court because we see for them we look at what is we do know might be to what is not within or might it we dedicate to other responsible for organizations that handle those might us right so thank you so much i definitely understand that but byron i have to come to you because we obviously don't have a police officer here but you're the closest person we have to one what goes through the mind of a police officer when they're in that sort of situation you know what would lead a police officer to draw his gun and kill an unarmed person coming from a community or very high love bulleteer been edition of the special forces i know
4:42 pm
for certain that when life is supposed to be taken the decision is very very critical and so life multiples we can take and is that which is has been thought about so many times and we set up so many times in terms of decision making on the part of the operators so the judgment around the practice of security and order to be but it's a key to service has got to be rethought on the functions thereof in terms of even the training of the people should know even the brief for the particular operators has got to be defined of the last minute detail of the operation so my solution would be the police being the. big brother here too. when it comes to the reader dress themselves to insecurities and how they will apply themselves to the provision of the key to service ok propecia very quickly we opened with you had like to hear your final thoughts and also what you think can be done to bridge this gap between citizens and the police most of these police
4:43 pm
allegedly police. they don't wear a uniform they don't identify themselves we don't know who they. go to the police station and we put a case and they say come later so my. solution. this is a police reform to be implemented everywhere in this country because all citizens of this country and we have to be treated with dignity we do deserve to be treated with dignity i can't think of a better place to wrap up this conversation thank you so much to my panel who've been so gracious to stand with me as a sun goes down i think what we can take away is that the police officers of being that their slogan to me she called to service to all needs to be to all and from the community service from all that we also have a responsibility to play in this thank you all for watching.
4:44 pm
a big thank you to edith and everybody who took part in the street debates in nairobi and if you want to watch a longer version obvious debate then visit our you tube channel and be sure to subscribe we're saying in nairobi in the room a neighborhood to be precise and there we meet a group of talented kids on their way to becoming social media celebrities after watching just a few of their parody videos and remakes i only get why they are so popular and why thousands of fans follow them on instagram. costume props a little backyard camera and action that's all you need to become an instagram star . these are the kids from the room

petering multiple sets and costume changes and the crew needs to pay attention to columns of tiny details. sometimes i look at a form and see what i said looks like then i go on good news the money just tells me what to do like now she's told me to get a bicycle so now this bike is like a horse. but i got so i'm not. so good to everybody to. to be exact so that you can come out. good that's what. he needs. but for the kids it's about more than acting the neighborhood doesn't have many youth clubs or other activities on offer. when i come here i'm not lazy and we have each other and not been there i like the group because there are
