a government regulated market where he's supposed to get a dad indeed fuel price the new laws allow him to sell outside this market to private places but singh and other farmers feel that this will eventually lead to the government withdrawing it's guaranteed price support. if these laws are implemented we will lose the land what will become of us then we will have to leave farming and lose their jobs and they'll make big storage units big businesses will lose everything. we're going to go and sing doesn't plan to allow it he's heading to new delhi to join thousands who have been told testing at the capital's borders for almost 2 months now. good treat his 14 year old son will look after things while singh is away there is

spending to do tending the buffaloes watering the beet crop sprinkling 40 lasers and best sights. feeding the car when i'm away ok singh says he should get a government a short price of 800 rupees or about 20 euros for every 100 kilograms of wheat he sells. he often doesn't get that because of middlemen. he's afraid that in a free market even that lower price would be impossible to get. think that's to be gone for a month. you know and everything and it's your responsibility once i leave what if we don't worry we'll do it. with one of the farms it is time for singh to go build his temporary home on beads. that.

these factors are commonly used for farmers to tend to the fields or to transport produce. now for the protests singh and others like him are building temporary structures on to the strolling. even equipping them that lights and charging points with them we sometimes do this when we travel for fairs and festivals so is this like a festival. no this is a protest this work is permanent not like a day long ferris. the government has repeatedly told farmers that going to the free market will allow them to get competitive prices. but farmers were not consulted before the loss of the past they say they don't trust the government because of its perceived closeness to big corporates. since some good creek has already spent 10 days at the protest camp last month he vicious he could go again

but he has to stay back to attend school and to defeat this political here. he does deferentially offer words of wisdom for his father. but my father is a grown up so what advice could i offer although i'd like to tell him it gets really cold there so i suggest you take a lot of warm clothes. the rest of your handle. and sing is planning ahead for the called the help of his wife and daughter. should i pack question you got a yes it's won't. bring my jacket since daughter coleman says she cannot remember her father ever being over before more than a couple of days she's voted but also proud of him have you got your soap and shampoo yes and. the family has one last night together before sin has to head out today. the former union committee requests all villagers heading to delhi to please

pack unload your bags and start heading out the. the coil to move comes while it is still dark out sing grabs a moment to offer a prayer they have to be on their be at the crack of dawn. the. bunge in the court has never left her husband's side. now she accepts that if the laws are not repealed he may keep returning to the protests repeatedly for months and we see a better better we've never stayed apart this is the 1st time that he's leaving me i really want to go with him but the kids' schools have opened so i stayed back here. singh says even the get indeed trays of food at the government market right now doesn't cover his costs he is already in heavy debt and getting any lesser

money would sink the hopes of his family. even force him to sell off his land. good prieto wants to take over the farms one day from his father. they'd be applying to colleges and would like to study engineering in canada. but i'm very proud that my father is going to be a part of this movement he has to be our land is at stake which is like a mother to us. the prime minister she remember that is the farmers grain the farmers vote that has made him what he is. the farmers have gathered. it is time to be on their feet. they be on the do it didn't midnight tonight and then again for 7 or 8 hours the next day. but spirits are high.

when i'm out and we're not alone 40 or 50000 of us are taking a caravan to get these black laws revoked because we don't care if it takes months or years we'll stay put until these laws are rolled back. the caravan been have to keep stopping the fuel to eat and to wait for other to. talk about it will start here with some 4 or 500 trolleys more will join along the way i expect we'll be 1500 by the time we reach delhi these farmers have to travel over 400 kilometers on slovik that's meant for the feeds. but lucky there is a knot of help along the from the locals who can all join the protests themselves. but they support us they want the protest to run for a long time and they don't want the farmers to worry they tell us to stay strong they'll stand with us look free food.

acts of service are central to success and this has been crucial for these protests . for the. community kitchens serving up seafood are no longer everything. citizen is vitally practiced and job. but the point that i'm it's not our going to the farmers here have already been travelling for 7 or 8 hours they need rest. everyone is uncomfortable with travelling on a trolley if they feel sick we provide a doctor so. there is even fee fuel for the cattle and of the next station already paid for by supporters. the encouragement is heartening but the journey starts taking its toll. it has now been 12 oz sensing set out. on the night i feel cold i'm tired my back hurts but we have no option we have to

go. the just stop set up by supporters is still 6 hours of the. day is still she 100 kilometers of me. but driving relentlessly they make it ahead of shut you. said not on the same door for over 30 hours to the gist of his protest. but i'm exhausted i'm happy to be in delhi we're here to fight a lot of megalia are worthless and we are selling the. scene joins families here who will be docked from entering delhi back in november. so they decided to set up

camp right chill on an arterial hiving most have taken tones to go from an end to their crops but a steady flow of new what i was has helped keep spirits high. the . but this is far from easy. protesters have braved one of davey's oldest winters out in the open. repeated johns of negotiation with the government have failed dozens of deaths including suicides have been reported to. sing knows this but it has only added to his. the issue. of the hour. was. was the caravan has arrived in delhi on an auspicious day. it is the festival of the

already celebrated across been job to mark the winter solstice. it is traditionally a time for family borne fires 2 song and dance. embody logic imo you know what's left of laurie for us the motive government has brought these black laws down and we're stuck here because of them my kids will celebrate laurie back home without me but i'll be burning copies of the black clothes we ceremonially throw food into the fire on your it'll be there i'll be throwing these laws up your the. first thing and many others here this is their 1st notice of the from home. they will be sure to make. the link. with.

any 70 percent. sensing in kenya also for everyone anyone can. kick boxing in uganda can journeys. and soccer culture in south africa you know. this episode is all about sports so let's find out what the 77 percent. next on t.w. . hour need to magic relative. to anderson. the 1st human and all of the amazing. survivor of the ice age. researchers are beginning to discover just how in the lurch the meaning was tied. to me and their souls trying to be hard pressed to explain 45 minutes long t.w. . in the height of climate change. africa's most so

what's in store for the past few months to come for the future in the 1st. hi there thanks for joining me on this very sporty edition of the 77 percent sure i am michael and us you can tell from my surroundings this is going to be great to special. so here's what's coming up. we meet one of germany's best female fans and talk to. him pena. we experience the possible football fans in south africa. and he will talk to one of god. save the game.

we called the shaw in kenya what their sports love uses and non-conventional with one face is becoming popular among young people in the country with many of them using its to improve their lives let's find out more in this report. and the best long winter and also. a lot. so i was so willing to. fencing a sport that is still relatively unknown in kenya. and i roby is only practiced by about 75 fences but coach stephen o'connell is on a mission to ensure that this sport is recognized. friends who come.

to do fencing is a new sport in kenya but now it's slowly becoming widespread and this makes me happy you know walk all the more so yeah you know but you can see from my trainees it just. a lot and that's changed their lives when we started with them they did not have shoes then but today they do have shoes going on of the. one on which the and their behaviors have changed and they've become responsible in what responsible in 2012 steven started offering his classes today fencing has gained more ground attracting people from all age groups who want to learn more about the sport. one of them is actually one gary she is one of 20 female fences the 21 year old started fencing a year ago but she's already making huge strides. it

somehow changed. things for everyone. ashley's family was skeptical at 1st a mother could not believe it and because of the weapon was afraid that her daughter would become a thief. but in the meantime they have understood it and support ashley in her support you don't need. trains 5 days a week and the hard work pays off she recently won a scholarship to study in south africa. i grow up i want to become records which came with this. it was like so many kids are going to.

find. your roommate. all over. there one. before you know how to turn this change your life. and i can do. to promote fencing in kenya steve and i come in coaches like ashley are committed to establishing clubs around the country and firing the next generation of kenyan fences. i'm sure your seat at the school you saw is the brainchild of. several international awards thank you for joining me on this it's thanks for having me so my 1st question is why the hell did you decide to introduce this

project well fencing is my sport i really love it and also my father is from kenya so it was a no brainer to come to kenya to bring him to show it to everyone. in the school the young chaps you see how do you get. people well those were personal donations and. donations so whenever i fly to kenya i bring something when my mom goes to bring something. with the young people in the school you get a sense that there's. absolutely i've seen so much talent already. we have the 1st guys already assisting the coach helping we have 1st to alumni from the school in south africa training school for coaches so i see a lot of talent. i mean i imagine dealing with so many young people from different backgrounds be quite challenging and get interested and new sport can be quite

challenging what are some of the challenges conditions some of them with us i think the biggest challenge was actually bringing the kids and the equipment together like giving them the possibility because so far everyone was really excited to have like this new project to be able to try a new sport and this new adventure because as you said it's a very very new sport in kenya but people were they were just really excited and happy to try it and do you see that there is a future for this sport absolutely i see a big future i mean what we've established so far in those few years since last year we were part of the world fencing federation so now the guys can actually go to competitions and and go abroad as i said the 1st 2 alumni from that training academy that is just so exciting and we have a disabled program as well so the sky is the limit i really want to go in all directions and make it as big as i know it from germany for example how far is that dream go on as well so far we are only in there bro beam we are really one and

wanted to have like a stable program in nairobi a big one and then from there go to the other counties my home state is actually from. so i would be really happy to see a club in soon. the north and the south of course too so we should expect that very soon there's going to be the fence and i hope so. absolutely if i can help with that i would be so proud now in case you fall into conversation. simply put she can stop you and get awarded for it now i've seen the girls in kenya and i feel like this is something that. isn't so i'm going to get into my fence india but while i do that i'm not a history maker but to shop a lot is a ugandan kid books who is a world champion has his story. with 13

titles to him named patricia is the reigning world kick boxing champion in the female lightweight division. a lot of courage to stand up it takes a lot of courage to to make it to the top i mean even when you make it to the top some people still doubt but if you listen to the voices of other people than listening to yourself you find out you block out your so from what really you want to be. true i'll take area she has faced negativity and discrimination in uganda kick boxing is considered immense on the sport so patricia's rise to the top was an uphill struggle. people are not going to and that's what i want to change. to be one for you to want to. be a champion swash because when i was a young that i had

a lot of passion bedroom's don't come easily. so i reached a point whereby i said i have followed enough but get back turning me but what do i have to tell myself the 2 time world champion isn't just a tough opponent in the ring she also supports female athletes who have suffered sexual harassment and violence alkaloids has a. very clear message for the paper treaty people are mentally sick because you have something to show to the world but someone is actually limiting access to reach where you want to go many of the girls were crying about sexual harassment a lot of them but it's never occurred to me because once i showed them what i wanted. no one even ever thought about coming that december's of course from my school days hell out of today patricia knows that you can't have

just speak for themselves in your home village in goa the 29 year old founders of love for mostly young female keep boxes she relieved that hope for a better future starts with the young generation specially if leaders also work to us creating a safe environment to fit their develop their talents we can do this we can achieve it we are greater than we are actually we at the beginning of everything. this year she is focused on defending a world title she is convinced that he achievements inspire more african girls to stay focused on their dreams. i was torn between fence and kick boxing but today i'm a pro friend about to spar with. alex before we start do i get an advantage for being shorter than you are absolutely not in fencing we don't make a difference between heights we don't make a difference between. the weights as you know it may be from judo or take one dog

we all are in the same category as long as you pick one weapon out of the 3 like this. you have no advantages ok now break it down for me what exactly is fencing so for me fencing is a lot of creativity it's also moving while you have to strategize and you have to adapt to different circumstances because i have a strategy you have a strategy and when you change your mind i also have to adapt to that and i mean of all the things that you could do sport football basketball why did you decide trying to stop your porn and was the thing that you wanted to do it just gave me a lot of fun and just really like to be good stubborn people i like to move i like to strap. gys i like the interaction with the opponent because i also used to do swimming and running for example and there you fight against the clock but here you really fight against the opponent and you you get to see if your strategy was

better than theirs and how long have you been a sport i started when i was 21 which was insanely late so now i've been in the sport for roughly 12 years ok now there's been a lot of discussion lately in sports around the world talking about racism in sports. in germany and also us a block what has been your experience like well luckily i didn't have many experiences with racism in my life in general the few that i had where very unpleasant obviously i had one big one also in fencing but i reported it and it got handled so yeah i dealt with it that way many people like you in germany who are into sports well right now i am the only person of color in the national team which is a team of 24 we have a few in the junior team and i'm just hoping that my legacy what i do

in this board will help to change that a little bit because i think that anyone can do fencing and you just need role models who need representation and see yourself in and to to achieve that yeah it's i think it's important that you you mention your legacy talk to us about what is being your legacy so far i know you've won a number of awards but what exactly is your legacy so i've won 2 medals at european championships so far right now i'm training for the tokyo olympic games hoping to qualify go there and maybe win a medal and i think that actually my project in kenya is also a big part of my legacy because that one will go on long after i finished my active career and that's why i'm really. proud and happy that it is happening and when you hope to finish active korea but i'm also planning to go to the paris olympic games which will be 2024 so that's for sure i will train for those olympics and then

we'll see as a cup for when you can be active in the sport and pay fencing is pretty has a pretty wide range so we had a limb pick a vice champion actually in rio de janeiro who was 42 but then the picture was 21 so you can see you can really go on for a long time ok so now. look at me here why how what it takes to be the next world champion absolutely if you have a lot of time we will make it happen ok now i am going to get in shape for the next championship you just hope i can be the next world champion but probably you don't know what sport you are into at the moment so here is a selection of some of the best sports across africa who knows you might get inspired in the meantime i will be fencing with alex and don't know.

if. i'm going to go. then you're going to love scoring goals christine's and the money that comes with sports hundreds of nigerian professional footballers a plane for teams brought in zimbabwe sports scene is $1.00 such sector that has groomed well would renowned. young cricketers like this one was aiming for just one cream to make it internationally it's like swimming in a mountain called middle east corbin trees have given their nation something to cheer. cast now serves as the youngest ever sports minister in the current government. these days several shiny programs

camps and scholarships have sprung up to scout for young talent not only in football was in different sports for example in 2030 in the n.b.a. launched its junior m.b.a. program in a blue john nigeria nigeria has produced nearly 20 n.b.a. players more than any other african country many people are beginning to take making a living from professional sports most seriously. young people try hard to following the footsteps of their ideas the 2 you got an olympic gold medalist john are cuban stephen king british are adored by the achievements are often overshadowed by bit sad stories in local sports in number of former ugandan sportsmen live in abject poverty some cannot afford the basics of life however many talented young ugandans wants to be aiming at the big goal with the hope that if

one can bring a gold medal home others can too hard. after a grueling 90 seconds with alex i realize that fencing isn't as easy as i thought so maybe football yeah could be my calling in south africa many youngsters like me have the dream of becoming the next football star but i like me actually pursuing dreams and this report to me had to so where to where football has become the path to glory. johannesburg it's much today in orlando pirates supporters are filling up the clubhouse the pirates and one of the earliest clubs in africa but have been left without a trophy for years but real fans do not pledge their loyalty to success. but. it's not just what. we need them higher than what is on the cards.

but the tide is about to turn the tide it's played a phenomenal season and the fans are upbeat about today's march against their arch rivals the kaiser chiefs. some chiefs supporters even came to watch the game with the pirates both clubs course away to their home and the fans respect each other for you know one thing. for. this he means literally while the father who for the chiefs his daughter is a team player supporter. part of the winning formula of the team is the new coach. here at the training base at the rand study i'm enjoying his blog the former bliss leader coach introduced a rigorous training regime with intensive technical and individual training believes that there is more to be unlocked. the potential here is enormous i think not only in south africa but africa in general the player sufi's equally strong but

also in terms of behavior and reactions on the field and different solutions. it's unbelievable if they were training even earlier i think they would have more success in football. and just in the diet of the players and started video recordings of the training sessions to analyze potential weaknesses at the same time in kind of a mindset shift by the wedding template and discarding solo runs. the new strategy certainly pays off after 6 years without trophies the pirates won the empty 8 cup in december last a competition featuring the top 8 clubs in south africa. the midfielder lindemann tumble is certain that the new team spirit will kind of the club fight for. anybody's children together pulling in one direction you know went into will we have been and continue for for the last 10 months and we want to keep it that way throughout the season it's been

a while that it's missing one in the saloon this will be looking for 2 in this on not only for ourselves but all families and the fans that isis's put the sticks after the training coached in by our calls frustrating to meeting with the players strictly no media. but at the clubhouse the atmosphere is tense until the 58th minute when the pirates run a counter attack overwhelming the defense getting the offense and pleasing future titles was was. question we were there to know what we're not going to now want to call when they want to take everything back. including the cap on. the pirates wein and the despair of the case the chiefs supporters is soon forgotten in the end everybody celebrates as one big family.
