6:33 pm
it was a last minute intervention. the 1st plane bound for kigali was 7 asylum seekers on board. never left the tarmac. a set back, but the british government is undeterred. the home secretary confirmed that preparations for future flights were already underway, one offering. but even from within ronda, there is criticism of the to put ation deal with the quantity the migrants. are we sent back to the starting point because rhonda is not the country that respects human rights, there's no democracy, they fled the country and they're sent to a country where they will find themselves facing the same situation. well, i mean it was ronda already house more than a 100000 refugees from other african countries. peace and yoni fled the civil war and south to don. 8 years ago. he was moved here last year by the united nations

6:35 pm
what is rhonda offering these people deported from the u. k. as in what the one of these really soon are they offering them 1st are thrive. some will be often those who are willing to stay young. we're fund still sheeps on new accounts. zia be given the skills so that they can read that word into serbia and roll for jobs. i think any other one? hm. okay, so what about for a one day it's, it's going to receive some money from the u. k. a 120000000 pounds. but why else is rwanda doing this apart from the money? it's about some of the money. 120 meter bonus for the study. that was the next. i'm sort of assuming fee finding album in fi. the money that was meant for that is meant for development. but as you've said, what, but there's much more money that he's going to be involved money, the money that he's going to be used to pay for the hosting. there will be staying in the mail from one of the associations that has been one of my sessions on the

6:37 pm
when it comes to hosting migrants and refugees? it's got into the one on $130.00, some of them. if it is in different count. those are made it from the republican form book and wounding. but the wonders jose if you just from off again mr. including those from one, go to go to school or senior. i don't good. and i study from you or saw the awesome . i love my gross book, you in the past give for almost a mouth piece from is that a was are comprised of each other if you of yours, but most of them these to be off where so to really don't they man that if they are so my not to listen to you over okay. if it's done with the same deal, i just wonder was unbearable. so i dont know how that will change for these members that are being brought in from the okay. all right, charles, do, siobhan des, speaking to us from kigali many,

6:41 pm
as well without its revenue that they destroyed the hospital and it's everything that's useful or the x ray machine, the cam lab and the laboratory i was, they took everything and they broke the rest. the only tenant out the fighting has caused a rift between the 2 communities. both now accused each other of massacres, destruction and looting. we found signs of t p. laugh actions, but to grind witnesses also made claims of a foreign militia aggressions. they say they targeted and killed several to grand residence before transporting several 1000 to the regional capital samarra. the head of the u. n. h. c. r.

6:43 pm
reviving cape bird, vibrant shoes that had been muffled by the pandemic. the attempt to bring back music from these islands, the world stage. now to hereditary condition that threatens many lives in africa, people with sickle cell disorder produce red blood cells that are unusually shaped like crescent or sickles, as the name suggests. these can block blood vessels and cause chronic pain on often death. the condition is particularly common among people with african or caribbean background. now $300000.00 children are born with sickle cell disease each year with her arm 3 quarters of those in africa. nigeria is the worst affected country, but there are attempts to sound the alarm as dw correspondence. only such woocommerce reports throw in blood to prevent immense suffering. nigeria, sickle cell foundation in non profit organization, is trying to test as many blood samples as possible. so people can know jessica
6:44 pm
sells things us more duke way or color, or look by the group or left please. and the forefront of these efforts. she has lived with sickle cell disorder or more than 60 years. it was very uh, i was always in and out of the hospital. 0 one then. oh, i know the infection i have to be transferred to you. my friend responded like that one with when not very, it was in a good it when she calls herself the sickle cell warrior, breathing every day with strong support from her family and with medical care. what for disease which no easy cure. she wants to raise awareness to prevent the need for the lifelong challenges it brings it vivian did very multiple to know. because in that, by the all the out we, i live
6:45 pm
a lot of people feel good. so this community very martin course on the fundraiser and i've been doing a lot about about 40000000 nigerians. a healthy carriers will be sickle cell g, but some are not even aware of it. it is saw that can only occur when 2 of such people have children. one informed their offspring will have sickle cell anemia which causes chronic pain and often death. many don't make it beyond the active vest day. this particular vent did now jesus of change to them. so they know again before the start date and get married. what then do you know type is that what determines if you're going to be in yes, this is exactly what more or more couples are starting to do. it's often even a decisive factor or get it together. as we hear at
6:46 pm
a wedding registrar next door annoying most to some of my little i sent my old man if i get married so that i'll know what i'm doing. so i'm how to avoid that. a latin american good clinical. in the, in addition to that, not with that so free is worse and i the huge financial costs and the challenges accessing policy, health care, managerial pose. that's why the campaigners advocates know your status, the cheaper and safe a message of prevention. we can also be to deli, at yogi, at people she is the chief operating officer of $54.00 gene, which is a pharmaceutical research company pioneering the specialization in african genetic material. delilah, it's good to have you on the program. now, less than 3 percent of genomic data are represented in research as from african
6:47 pm
population. so how much has this tiny amount hampered the search for a cure for sickle cell disorder? well, thank you. it's greatly hamper the search for a cure and when we think about it, what's really contribution to that is the fact that we don't have much representation when it comes to driving the science. we need more or african scientists to help bridge the disparity gap when you think about driving genomics, read data research, so that we have greater participation from african science. those who look like those who are affected by the disease contributing. in addition, we need to be able to have greater investment when we talk about diagnostics and data for being able to identify the causes as well as those who need the treatment related to sickle cell disease is that lack of diagnostic build is on the continent that also causes delayed in disease identification as well as crucial management of sickle cell. and the 3rd area that is really important is participation. we have
6:48 pm
more patients participating who are of african descent. that allows $54.00 companies. i 34 gene as well as the pharmaceutical industry to understanding yet better insights into the disease and therefore power innovative drug discovery. now there are other diseases whose cures are yet to be found to so where does sickle cell rank in terms of priority in the world, major research labs in your body varying a point in terms of the world's research labs. i mean, most of the time we focus on infectious diseases like over 90 because obviously there's been a huge impact globally. only thing about disease burden in african, where typically research has been directed to things like h, i v t, v. malaria usually come up. but there has to be much greater focus when it relates to non communicable diseases, which is where sickle cell falls. because actually globally, that is the biggest representation of disease burden and it's not infectious
6:49 pm
disease every single day. people are dealing with chronic conditions that are, that are affecting both their daily lives as well as what, how the rates are possible. why? and so we globally think about sickle cell disease for which about 300000 or more list of every year. nigeria alone in particular, contributes to about 50 percent of that about 150000 newborns are born the sickle cell disease annually, which represents 50 percent. so how do we start addressing? and he just put attention towards that particular disease burden is the fact that we have such a great cause and a need to focus and not just look at infectious disease by coping 19 alone at this rate. so how close do you think we are to finding a cure, a ready cure for sickle cell disorder? so i think that when you think about new technologies, for instance, like gene therapy, which is really a cure in itself. when you think about how to come about treating sickle cell
6:50 pm
disease, this whole, but we need to actually really do more and be able to come up with innovative ways and mechanisms for which we can address sickle cell in a manner that supports the infrastructure that we have with in africa building up capabilities, continue to build up sustainable ways for which the health care ecosystem can support new technologies coming in. that will really be able to brocker size availability, as well as accessibility for these innovative therapies. and that's what's going to be important for driving and being able to address and provide insurance for sickle cell. all right, delaney at info from 54 gene, thanks for speaking to us. thank you. now to chad, where a professional dancer is hoping his craft can achieve a greater purpose is using his dancing skills, among other activities to help kids get off the streets in a country where many parents are financially struggling to take her of the children
6:51 pm
. this dancer hopes to help ease the burden and jemina must have a professional dancer, oliver and dab ago jude is helping these children find their way through dance. some of them are orphans, others have been abandoned and left to fend for themselves. ah, when we dance, we forgot all old worries. we only think of moving together only for the gift than to dance, to gain the trust so that the children can confide in us. for example, why are they on the streets quite from the law? there are more than 3000 children living rough here in chads capital city. the reason for them being here often because their parents can't afford to keep them loyal la barry handle at home, my parents have nothing on the fight every day. they don't give me anything. they
6:52 pm
can't enroll me in school. that's why i'm on the streets yet, and jemina put in. and that's why oliver does what he does. but dancing to hip hop with is only part of it. worthy italy at the center, he found it. children are also taught to read and write many for the 1st time, the center which is part funded by unesco or say, provides vocational training. it's led to success stories like at dow, after islamist group bach, her, her arm murdered his parents. he spent 3 years on the streets. now he works as a dressmaker. you'll be emma, my senior, i have more machine. i have a room, it's incredible. he dances give me self confidence. that's not what it's taught me of isa. the hope is that among these children, there will be more apt, out of either taken back in by their parents or becoming financially independent,
6:53 pm
