12:14 am
a rivalry quite the opposite. i think this many tournament is a good sign for others that we can play football again. some countries have had to cancel their games as we watch been going on and that's almost. in any case this is a germany team full of confidence after an unbeaten qualifying campaign for next year's european championship. you know. we have the highest expectations of ourselves. our goal is to compete for the title in england will give everything this year to develop as a team. by the end. of the pandemic isn't making those preparations easy but friendly tournaments like this week's are providing something of a test and those tests would come much tougher than the netherlands. finally now gold star tiger woods has undergone surgery for multiple leg injuries after being

12:18 am
noted that a majority of people infected don't show symptoms and would not have been tested and. joins me now from lagos good to see you 1st had a small about what was revealed in this report. well in the reports the reports reviewed that one out of 5 people even illegals has had a virus now the nigeria center for disease control on the one theory institute for medical research conducted this research and they sampled 10000 blood samples from 10000 households across nigeria from the north the south east and the west and the results came in proving that the reason the. initially reported cases of coronary virus do not fully you know review the extant of the pandemic so you can imagine up to one in 5 people goes and they go to africa as the guest c.t.
12:19 am
it's also reviewed that more men have been infected by the virus and people in cities more people in the cities than rural rural areas have been affected by the virus speaking i'll feed that scene when is the rollout expected to start in nigeria well we are told that the vaccines will begin to i arrive and you know february i spoke to the head of the major center for disease control last week and he said that there is no nobody knows exactly when they do not know exactly when the vaccines will in nigeria so while all of that countries are having almost the entire population being vaccinated and even have an idea when the 1st set of oxys without but the government plans to vaccinate or to 40 percent of the population by the end of b.c.
12:20 am
and even vaccines do and i arrive by the end of february they're going to be behind in their schedule. how does the government manage the pandemic is the public in support of the nigerian government's efforts. ok at the beginning of the pandemic in a lot of people felt like this a virus that the government overreacted by calling for the lockdown and all of that well right now many people now know that the virus exists because if you speak to people outside many people know someone everyone knows someone that knows someone that has. died from unfortunately died from coronary virus or has been effected by a corner virus so we don't know people are aware that the virus is out there but then there is the level of there's a high level of mistrust from the government of course because of. the corruption that has been the niger for such a long time because of several cases over government officials seen in 1000 pylea
12:21 am
it seems you know so many things many issues that make people really distrust the government so i think that in general the nigerian. people have not really been the support of the government. in fighting the pandemic right that's. reporting for us for us thank you for. an extraordinary isn't gonna wait bishops of the catholic church all pressing the government to crack down on the gay community the move by the church leaders is in retaliation to the so-called l g p t workspace in the capital accra now the matter has surfaced the discussion about homosexuality in the country prompting a number of public officials to side with the bishops in a moment i'll be talking to activists but 1st we have a gay man in there who opened up to us about how his life has changed since he came
12:22 am
out. he lives in this apartment alone in a crowd away from his family he had to relocate after coming out as gay into into 17 that decision hasn't been easy he says since most of his relations because his sexuality and lifestyle complaining of constant threats of attacks fears for his life. just the mere fact. that somebody point 3 that we had this with nicky could actually need to mean being ranged. in. a thought. that you know. any yet but it experience that i go through and isn't just me alone but i'm people who play a huge presence in ghana also who true to my experience and according to rights
12:23 am
groups might not writes i think it's 40 percent of. the community best since i've suffered a tot's don't race worried about the level of hatred for people based on their sexual orientation it is unfortunate that some guy would treat them differently because of death actually. and it made him feel like if they can't laugh at him. right it is unfortunate so it is not. who is purported india mind to discuss need to be to piss and for them who hated to abuse involved in the. same sex relationships and not spend metered by law in gonna complain it's against the movement see this won't change anytime soon due to gonna scorcher oh i'm truly just moments. we will be the rules that
12:24 am
govern the states that will leave and for that matter. if you ask me personally i abide by the rules or regulations in the country. so i am for one a government to say what the laws are saying what a traditional believers are saying and one of christian courts i say gazing on lesbianism a waterway correlates for. reform i believe that the. and we will recognize the. 100 that's a common view on the streets of our crime and elsewhere in the country. they don't. cite sucked because i think it's for outs or. or knowledge or all. about. hard to call it. is something that we do grew up with it is not an african thing we are not into
12:25 am
this our instance they did not innocent of this and it is a taboo so we don't need to feel it we don't need it don't go and others like him and to relate in. the rights activists also mobilizes like minded people to discuss issues affecting them and to 2nd solution us. that week a few new layers of carney and we need to talk about that as a community and we need to believe with the proper authorities to make sure that they do with whom they have been put into we were removed from day. is hoping for acceptance within the game in society suna but that's hope appears from a distance for now and to talk more of this we've invited the team of derby onto the program she's an activist advocating for the acceptance. people and got
12:26 am
a welcome city to every news africa. did people in the community i'm gonna have to live in fear. l.g.b. see people in ghana are often faced with violence people experience physical assault people experience physical and sexual harassment people experience workplace discrimination people experience public humiliation in this street in marketplaces if you are perceived to be queerer in some way or perceived to be a member of the community or if you open identifying exposed to all kinds of attacks sometimes from individuals in your community sometimes from the media sometimes from religious bodies and all of that so there's really a lot of dollars that people experience many people having to live in fear many people are having to live and they close it right because even from within your own immediate family people are often displaced from home people are also experiencing
12:27 am
physical violence in their own homes people are having to be sent to churches vision therapy to be cured of their homosexuality so it's really a very grim situation that all g.b.t. people in ghana face are the moment if i see my story i will get to that point but i i don't want it hours before we proceed at to the point that you're going to make i just want to ask you what you believe is the reason people in ghana are so intolerant of the gay community. i think the most prominent reason that i would like to side is religion current clearly there's a there's an organization called the national give me a minute the national coalition for human rights and family values and it's their coalition that has been that is made up all for the governor christian console the cosmic secretary at the catholic bishops conference they've got not going to cost and charismatic and so as well as the muslim community in traditionally this so
12:28 am
it's quite is a big organization and i think that best like the major organization. in canada and some of the talking points that this organizations including the religious organizations and put forward is to say that homosexuality is a sin and it's an abomination and that if the people of ghana with 2 acceptance you know us i say see they're going to in their roth gorge and the country is going to be destroyed and the country is going to do for you to really like from the bible and so because because of that fear that has been instilled in people people also feeling like you know it's right it's in their own once they don't want to be damned you know by supreme. intolerance of of the l.g.b. sikh community in ghana all right that's a team of speaking to us from accra thank you fred. and that's it for now today is

12:33 am
an event and far from complete his comments during testimony to the u.s. senate banking committee were in contrast to the increasing optimism among many analysts who believe the u.s. economy will grow rapidly this year they expect progress in combat in the pandemic and that government stimulus will lift the economy powell said monetary policy still needs to be deployed to support the economy until it is fully healed he also downplayed concerns about rising long term interest rates and higher inflation that could come if there is strong growth later this year. our financial correspondent joins us now from new york hence do you think powell managed to effectively alley fears that the fed stimulus measures are going to push up prices. you know the fed chair definitely did downplay any inflation concerns that's been coming up in the past couple of days i mean overall yes we do see some prices some
12:34 am
increasing commodity prices for incident and that the biden administration is also looking to increase the minimum wage from $72055.00 on average to $15.00 in the next the 2 just 3 years so they also could be some wage pressure but the chair said we're still not there yet so the federal reserve will continue for now have to buy bonds per month in the amount of a good $100000000000.00 altered interest rates will stay close to 0 and if it some point inflation should pick up so that's what the fed chair said then that would be a good reason because that would be that the economy is definitely gaining some speed so yes his remarks came down well here on wall street and we had a pretty solid session at least at the end of the trading day now and paul also noted in his remarks that the economic hardship from the pandemic hit some groups harder than others here's what he had to say as discussed in the february monetary

12:36 am
he said specially when it comes to the problem that mostly minorities still face and here in the country the federal reserve at least does not really have the tools to divest the money and the funds into those groups that are most affected by the pen demick and still pretty rough the economy's in directly he did say yes it's the fiscal side that has to act the federal reserve possibilities are limited but he did not say directly what he thinks about this new package that might be decided on in the next couple of days in congress. refusing to comment on the coolest of the package that was the always call against quite a for us thank you very much. now to some of the other global business stories making news. strong sales of apple's flagship i phone 12 model helped the company to move up to the top spot in the global smartphone market in the 4th quarter the
