it's been thus, it is very scary to think that we all came to this country to find safety and feel protected. and after we thought we were in a safe environment, i believe all of a sudden we had to leave our homes again on good m, as in it is horrible to always have to be scared that you are not safe organiser guard bung. local police suspect arson and say that just days ago, the hotel entrance was defaced with swastikas and other graffiti visiting the scene . the state premier had this to say. so then this there had asked them if arson is confirmed, then we would consider this an inhumane crime cover. in that case, we will do everything in our power because we do not tolerate hatred and violence against people in our country. and certainly not against people who are seeking our protection by an investigation is already underway into the cause of the fire is being led by a police unit that specializes in politically motivated crimes. the energy

crisis triggered by russia cutting gas replies has created a rift within the european union at a summit in brussels, e leaders, manor show gree on a road map, aimed at shielding consumers from storing prices. but key differences have not been settle. most member states, including france, are pushing for a cap on what they're prepared to pay for gas, but germany home to the use biggest economy fears such a cap could see suppliers see alternative markets. earlier i asked he w, corresponded jack parrot to tell us more about the road map. right, so the leaders of a 9. what they're calling a road map was a bit of a bit of a bell here in brussels. in other words, similar to that is framework essentially means they haven't managed to come to an agreement. so they want to look at the way in which they can come to an agreement on these issues after 11 hours on this energy topic. lossing, until about 4
2:11 pm
a in the morning. they still couldn't get agreement on this energy price caps. so what they've done is they've tossed the european commission, the executive arm of the european union to do basically a cost benefit analysis on that price cut. how much is going to cost? what can we do with it? essentially, for the $15.00 countries, including francis you mentioned that are in favor of it to try and persuade around the german government that it would be worthwhile that it is manageable, that it will bring the consumer prices down. and it, it won't skew the market so that that becomes a lack of supply. where as you say, energy produces, decide to sell it in other markets where they can get more money. if the european union has kept the prices, they did managed to have some other agreements like agreeing of voluntary purchasing system for gas, that there's a number of other issues surrounding the quantity benchmarks on liquid natural gas imports, etc. where they did manage to get together. but this big outstanding issue of the, of the price cap that just wasn't resolved. and then we've had this classic fudge, as we say,
2:12 pm
a roadmap to get there. so burning the midnight candle and lots of coffee or tea, i imagine what's the likelihood the leading powers, germany, and france will resolve their differences on these measures. it's really hard to tell at the moment i suppose that cost benefit analysis will be pretty important. we know that you energy ministers are meeting at the beginning of next week. they will obviously have a little bit more detail on these issues than the, than the leaders might have. obviously that being within their portfolio, as you say, the franco german access is really the crucial one in the european union. now, especially after breaks it used to be a sort of $33.00 big powers of the you. now it's only 2 which makes it perhaps a little bit more difficult to horse trade. that was meant to be big cabinet ministerial meetings between the 2 countries. next week. they were postponed over these issues likely to happen later on in the year. if then, it really is now down to that to france and germany. so knock heads and see if we can get through hard to tell how quickly or when the might happen. okay, that so d,

2:15 pm
they are concerned. i don't think so. i think we need to stay below the country and picker pick a new leader. someone like richard sooner. who can just stabilize everything before we move on to a general election? i'm not sure if general, that action is the best way. but anything but boris, i just want stability and quickly. absolutely. 100 percent. they've got no mandate . they need to. they need to let the people decide, you know, they're trying to keep in power when nobody wants them dw corresponded brigitte mos centers this update from london on the possibility of abort johnson, return the prospect of boris johnson coming back at the sense of political instability in the u. k. it was only a few months ago that he was forced to resign as prime minister. his critics are saying that his time is prime minister was dominated by lies and chaos. and he is still currently being investigated by a parliamentary committee over allegations that he misled parliament. but he was
2:16 pm
a vate winner, and he had delivered a huge majority for the conservative party. if he really did come back though, it would certainly create more turmoil in parliament. it's thought that there are several m p 's. we're just not willing to work with him. so it's not the stability that the majority of british people are craving for at a time of economic crisis. to another side of the world. now emergency services in nigeria say more than 600 people have been killed and 1400000 are homeless. following some of the most severe flooding in a decade, reins of washed away farmland and crafts, racing fears of a food crisis, climate change, but also poor planning or being blamed. the w corresponded flesh to true, true kura, sent us this report. here this is what the rainy season usually looks like and i'm rusty's in southeast and now jerry and this is what the same community

are affected by the floods and authorities are shang, it is an overwhelming disaster. well armed the night, national emergency agency arm is doing their best to get aid materials food materials across to these victims. but as you mentioned, the nigerian government has actually said that this particular disaster has gotten out of hand. so they're trying their best. but a lot of people asked seal on rich the a lot of communities that haven't, i haven't received any form of aid. there are lots of communities that as a result of the flood, have been cut off because rods and i and bridges have been destroyed by the flawed . so people are receiving aid and even those who are receiving the aid are complaining that it's not, is not nearly enough and are well some others are not even receiving it at all. as
2:20 pm
you surely know, there are reports, large areas of farm land have been destroyed. are we going to see a massive food crisis in africa's most populous country? well, the short answer to that is probably lots of economic experts are seeing that. of course, as a result of this flooding, a lot of the food supply in nigeria is going to be, is going to be like short circuited. and we've spoken to lots of farmers who have lost thousands and thousands of acres of land, whether they're planting rice, the amp, cassava, whatever it is, everything going on, washed away by the floods, but i'm danger and of course made you are already loses a lot of food to a food waste stage as a result of the poor transportation network. so even getting the food around already food is wasted and add on top of that that we don't even have enough harvest coming in in a few months. and we definitely me foresee some form of food shortage,
2:21 pm
but then again adrianne does not consume every for the food consumed in nigeria is not produced here. so we depend on inputs as well for food. so that may provide a little bit of a buffer for our for nature, and these floods are the worst in a decade. i feel that that's a, that's a sentence that we've heard more than several times in the last few years. do authorities believe this is yet another example of the impact of, of human made climate change? yes, a lot of us are, it says a lot of our ministers have attributes this flood, to a climate change. but it's very easy to see the body language of the, of the, of the government, of this country. there is a lot of fits his, him, there's a lot of blaming, of nature of, you know, there is nothing we can do about it. in fact, just yesterday, the minister of what i resources said that 80 percent of the floods as, as
2:22 pm
a result of rain from god, you know, so there is that kind of attitude. meanwhile, the government was actually aware that the floods were coming months ago, and they could have prepared better for it, even though nobody foresaw the skill of destruction. there is some that at least that they could have done something to prepare people for the flaws that, that, that without we are seeing. now, i wouldn't, i've seen this amount of deaths, at least, even though we may not have been able to control the properties that were destroyed . at least we wouldn't have seen the number of people that have died as a result of this float on the best you floors true cruel d w corresponding in lagos. let's take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world. american actor kevin spacey has been cleared in a sexual abuse case, brought against him by actor anthony rapp, or new york jury found his accuser now 50 years old. did not prove his claim that
