popstar records against the ocean. let's turn to one coming in from the room to become president. challenges are going to be incredible story of the church december to g.w. . this is due to be news africa on the program today, a warning to grind civilians to save themselves. if you know piers military has given leaders in the northern region, up to gripe a 72, i'll summation of just surrender, threatening an all out assault if they don't. that's the, to graham's one package. so what's likely to happen come wednesday and the people

who remain unaccounted for weeks off to nationwide these protests. you protests in nigeria? hello, i'm kristie one boy. it's good to have your company was off to being handed a 72 all the deadline to surrender. the it is off, that's a gripe. people's liberation front showed no signs of giving in at the weekend. ethiopia's prime minister made gave the t.v. a lift until wednesday to hand themselves over all face a final assault. a spokesman for the ethiopian ministry wants of millions in the besieged to grab capital mechanic, that there will be no mercy if they don't save themselves befall a, find it offensive to flash else defiant, regional leader, the hundreds, and possibly even thousands have been killed in fighting in a strike and is strikes that he brought early this month about 40000,

people have fled into neighboring sudan. and for more on this story, i'm joined by athlete solomon from chatham house. he's a researcher on the wall, hold off africa. welcome to deja vu news africa. so what is the most likely outcome following this 72 hour also made him, i just have a has given the t.p.n. if he to ship was another very strict limits to the time period. we're going to be left to hand in, i think most honest feeling that this was good. faith is unlikely to lead to a team left, surrendering the regional capital mccallion. and i think this current then and therefore lead to work whatever that meant. and the government would be saying would then be surrounding renewed, circling, mychael, a and artillery shelling of the caps or require region which could

have a potential for a substantial number of casualties and damage down people were this, it's your right and let us talk about that confrontation that is very likely as you are saying, what is the likely toll on civilians? well, if we were just a situation where a mechanic was targeted, i mean at this stage we could have heavy damage inflicted on the regional capital was one that stands for civilian civilian casualties in the region or city. i think that would, you know, have a significant reputational consequences for the federal government, which is why the federal government is encouraging you to stop supporting this and that. but i didn't, and absolutely the city, but i think the people left and their own turn for have dismissed the threat,

saying that the environment is the ethiopian military, may i mean they're not in position currently to insert them or ken lay there aren't far enough and they are calling their own civilians and 2 or so we could lead to again, more intensified phrase. right? stand by me because i'd like to show our viewers a report about developments in ethiopia since abby asked me took office in, in 20 africa's youngest leader takes the oath of office. bobby osmond was just 44 when he became ethiopia's prime minister. after 2 years of bloody protests against government oppression. dozens of ethnic groups have long jostled for power. and he was the 1st from the oromo people, the country's largest, to take the reins. he started reforms right away,

he lifted bans on many political parties and tried former officials for murder and corruption. thousands of political prisoners went free and he signed a treaty ending the conflict with eritrea that had dragged on since 998 a moment of triumph here. fearful of ethiopia and eritrea. yes, i would like to bow down and humbly. thank you. no because you chose compassion, not cruel to them, then peace, not conflict, love not hatred, forgiveness or conflict, pulling each other, not pushing one another to be won the nobel peace prize. at the end of 2019, things have changed since then. national groups and individual ethiopian states have started to compete for more power and autonomy, even as abby is striving to create a national ethiopian identity thing at that's led to conflict. that kind of hobby

zona romo group was attacked in hostilities, sparked by the killing of a famous aroma musician in june 2020. it was the touch and the love with what our enemies want is that we don't finish the work that we've started to feel roma. people for this reason, fight are killed with the blood is spilled the journey. we've started a good gets derailed. things got worse when leaders of the northern tea grey region defied these orders to cancel an election because of the coronavirus pandemic. the face off turned into open hostilities in early november when government forces started bombing, military sites, integrate human rights. observers say, massacres followed more than 20000, people have fled into neighboring sudan. recently, abby sounds more like a strongman than a man of peace. do queerness, mischievous force is surrounded on all sides. it is

a force in its final throes of death. many fear the conflict could destabilize the region, causing new wounds before the old ones have even healed. i had what it would be safe to say that in many ways this confrontation between that is and to cry has been a long time coming. yes. only. so if your parents who environment shifted 100 degree 80 degrees on its head when i became into power europe or showed that what we've seen is that the police who are divisions, some of the ethnic divisions and the structural problems he has haven't been sufficiently addressed in moscow and these include different narratives about 8 years history of finished federalism project and tensions over the divisions between the center in this and the regions which, which are driven by claims for greater representation from various ethnic groups

and more autonomy. and i think really that is at the roots of the conflict and why i think people worry about the wider consequences, conflicts reading beyond right region that's misalignment front, chatham house. thank you. now nigeria's on me has admitted that soldiers were equipped with live bullets when they went to disperse a demonstration in lagos. last month, the shootings prompted widespread condemnation, both at home and abroad. the military claims its man fired in the air and not at the peaceful crowd. who are part of the installs process against police brutality. now there has been no official death toll from the incident. and the families of some of those lost still have not been able to lay them to rest. they have come to confirm their worst fears. such ng for answers of this mortuary after they arrived, ones went missing during portis last month in lagos. a march last year was brother

. is one of those unaccounted for. she went to a protest on october 20th, but to never return to her the very bleak, sad news that i have ever had in my life. i don't know how to put it because it's obviously painful. was my journey and stooped to districts across the country for several weeks to protest police brutality. but on october 20th, security forces opened fire at one of these demonstrations in drinking and it was district. the number of casualties remains disputed. despite a conditions over coverup, the government claims it has nothing to hide so i began to deliver the racist

that denied, but today told me to firing live rounds at peaceful demonstrators. the ongoing probe is seen as a big step towards holding growth, or it is accountable for their actions. but human rights organizations have described as brutal and unjustified. it's not enough. just wants to find his brother who's going to sheer force here because they're not helping the ship. my post in this country is in germany for the fun news. it was the sea closure and death of your correspondent david. when is the author reporter you just saw? he joins me now from lagos. hi fred. how many people remain unaccounted for?

since the end? kristen of the prison people were cured as a result of the porters to understand for a conversation that i listened hard with private dr. who said that he actually transported more 150 bodies, but there were actually afraid and then there is an inquiry that is currently underway. that was, it happened the aftermath is pretty serious, a little bit about that and perhaps gives a sense of whether the public actually has confidence in it that the inquiry has a 6 month mandate. and this inquiry into abuses committed by this is

a police unit that was the center disbanded. and then they have also to key into crimes committed during the porters to solve, including people and other crimes committed was just about smog, but whether people will trust this inquiry to be remains to be seen. all right. thank you. that is correspondent in lagos, moving you thank you for age and that is it for now. be sure to check out the stories on com. forward slash africa. we are also on facebook and on twitter, and we would love to hear from you. we want to know what you think about the stories we cover on this program and the stories that we should be covering today will leave you with pictures also those insoles precious in nigeria till next time it's

but i don't need to keep both for the over that's on home, the 4th, and most recently in that valley that the nasa dragon was born or has called the hard to use

in the climate change assume it's as soon as today, how far future teetotal news dot com africa could enter the 1st thousands of museums are shut and virtual reality replace them for now that's coming up here on arts and culture and the world's top award for sacred architecture goes to a church covered in 3 d. ceramic tiles to reflect the sun and later on. oh well

all are well. so is american singer, erika stuckey explains the connection between the yodeling and the blue last march. first, the museums and galleries are on lockdown again in many places around the globe. some fear they may never reopen, but something else is happening here. digital tours of museums and galleries are taking off, including at the national museum of denmark, virtual reality or 3 d. tours have galleries, and museums are booming. it's often the only way visitors can access corona restricted exhibitions. the danish government has provided support to the national gallery to put 40000 works in a virtual shelf. we're actually seeing increased interest in our digital resources because of the corona and all the shutdowns, because people are only able, sometimes to access art and culture from, from,

from their homes. internationally acclaimed danish artist to the hilton is getting a lot of online love from all over the world for her corona inspired exhibition. the virtual version of her gallery show has gone viral in china and used to work with the whole world, us audience. and this is actually adding the possibility for my paintings to also reach an international audience all around the world. i think it's very positive. modern art fans and those who work in the industry are now able to follow the international scene even more closely innovative web sites like our land dot com. a platform where many of the world's leading galleries present 3 d. or versions of current exhibitions. as

a curator convenient to use the media to get an overview of what's going on in the contemporary arts and all over the world, the world's art treasures and the latest modern art are at your fingertips. and my colleague, adrian kennedy, is here. adrian, let's talk a little bit more about these virtual museum tours. i know that you've been on if you can replace the real thing when it can be quite intriguing museums that you wouldn't normally go. so i think one of the problems is that some of the works are an interesting if you zoom into the picture is the definition isn't always fact could really say with our land dot com to the hilton thing that we saw there, the very good some of the museums are not using state of the art technology. for example, i was at the get c,

and i couldn't read the info text on the walls next. they are. now i've tried a few of these. one thing that struck me is, it's kind of fun to visit a museum. you've never been so you can wander around some of these empty rooms on your own. but at some point, i felt that i wanted a little morientes. maybe maybe a guy of you, that's right, but some museums are responding to that. for example, the bar, perini, and pottstown near here which houses the collection of soft hasso plattner off towards the museum is king. the works that in this case, the coat of mourning exhibition remain accessible to the public during dr. so they say, how can sign up to talk to the rooms and given details background information and expose. ok, so how would that work? would i just book that on the museum's website? that's what you can always if you die, it's not free. it costs 3 euros,

but i think you can afford it. they also got some free video shows, and one i think might be going to people st. david lee, because this is for you, how about yoga and you can join and for a quiet morning section of each new exhibition at the oh, that is actually really cool. well maybe you know it, maybe you and i could do that before the show. sometime we could store and choosing for the future. that is actually ok. i would meet it. that is pretty cool. you got me there to hear that about to get me that they need to get their, their act together in terms of better resolution. but once i got the barbarian, a dream candidate, thanks so much. thank you. now let's move to architecture. can buildings elevate the human soul and they bring people closer to the divine?

that's the challenge for architects who design houses of worship. now every 4 years, it always saw the gives out the international prize for sacred architecture. and this time with more than $100.00 projects in the running from $33.00 countries. the winner is this asymmetrical catholic church in the little german town of point. just outside munich. a striking structure rising up from the apartment building a catholic church and even from the farm it seems to beckon a colleague told me that he was on a play came to munich airport, when he saw something glittering brightly down below on the ground and concluding that it wasn't fact the church here on the other one to this particular to church or a mantle of light architect acts of flew over and his late colleague underway as mecca planned. the facade of 15003 dimensional ceramic tiles, each one

a miniature of the church's form. even a peach tile is rotated and flipped and grouped according to a specific pattern to result in the desired effect. and that includes this multiple refraction of light for finish pushing off from interest to the church has one prize after prize, including germany's top architecture award of the course in meeker, the interior features solid natural stone and white light. the altar is that high level with the parishioners, flanked by 3 large openings meant to symbolize the holy trinity. but i'm here and there aren't a lot of colors here, but we have above all various nuances of white lies. and then with the natural

light of the sun, there is a play of colors. so in that way, this is really a church that truly allows you to sense the light of heaven, the cliff, the hymn of the, for scholarships to light as the formative force in other sacred buildings. by under us mek and his team the mortuary chapel and is a comforting room of passage. nikolaus church annoys me, which won the 2011 german award for the light design in a public building. they have in common a meditative reduction to the bare essential point that always i think that in this era of constant sensory overload, people are again looking for spaces of peace and quiet. but faith is also a matter of tradition, is how to adjust to some elements of the church, like nature rather than saints and they've gradually accepted the church as their own. over by its forward thinking, openness, its unifying,

and democratic approach. now yodeling, as an art form, many people don't fully appreciate to be fair. it can sound kind of like a teenage boy whose voice is cracking. but there are some yodelers who are just plain impressive who won the swiss culture ministry's top music award this year. strickly was born and san francisco moved to switzerland as a girl. her unique style brings jazz and blues to the swiss alps. sure is a crash. tookie. yodeling is all about a zest for life and expressing doubt in clear she finds inspiration in the echo of the alps. mine is beyond. it's like ping pong. i have to use huge sea of ice behind me. and obviously it never breaks quite

differently than if i were in texas and asked, has climbed the glacier countless times. it's the largest glacier in the alps and it's steeped in legend. many of the stories are mixed with her childhood memories, which tookie was actually born in the u.s. in the 1960 s. . when her parents then decided to move to a small swiss mountain village. it was a shock at 1st, but she eventually embraced both homelands and sets of roots. music is very much a product of this cultural mix from a modern day heidi to rock n roll or the world. and she also likes mixing yodeling with the bling. this is the, she's always in how closely related these 2 genres,

all singing styles. are they both close to praying? i cry when a man ting. oh, the cows are coming back again. and now want to see the blues. our last my last marked car last march. it's a sign. i know it's a wonderful cross between praying and complaining. i'm going to stack. my yodeling is traditionally a lemon taishan morning, or a way to call the cows home. the mountain people used it in the past as a way of communicating from one hill to the next tree. like a sticky brings a modern interpretation to the customs and home, all the horrible, quite sick heads of i'm going to iowa born daughter then and

say, here are the some years. nothing magic about yodeling. once you got the high falsetto peach, low chestnut, and it flips back and forth. i know then practice the tongue movement all over the low wall, 000. then you can yodel, it's not, it's not that hard. but the sound of the alps without the kicks. yodeling transcends language barriers. well, there was no it yodeling. at the americana music awards, the night's big winner taylor swift accepted the artist of the year award for the 6th time and a video message she recorded at her studio. she and justin bieber both got 3 prizes, career and band b.t.s. 12 and delivered a performance from seoul. here's
