a tory environmentalists in danger starts october 29th on dw. ah ah, this is d, w needs live from berlin, us ball makers order donald trying to give evidence about the january 6th dorming of the us capitol. the former president is required to appear in next month at the inquiry into the wires. also coming up, nigeria ones of a growing hunger crisis,

the worst flooding and a decade leaves, more than a 1000000 people. harmless. pitifully gets its 1st female prime minister and its breast par rides leader since world war 2, but stored in maloney named the coalition happened to the more moderate ministers ah armor hill mohammed walking to the program. lawmakers have ordered donald trump to give evidence at the inquiry into the january 6th attack on the us capital. the congressional committee has told trunk to hand over documents and testify under oath next month. it says as evidence that the former president, parson orchestrated the effort to overturn the 2020 election results of ours. earlier. trump's chief strategist, steve berman, was sentenced to 4 months in jail for refusing to cooperate with the committee

dw calling that she more has more from washington dc. right. the timing is quite interesting. the special committee investigating the diary 6 attack on the capital is running out of time in less than 3 weeks. the midterm elections will take place here in the united states. and the outcome of these elections will probably change the majority in the house of representatives, meaning that the republicans might then be in power. and they are, of course, are going to dismiss the select committee, investigating the general 6 attack on the capitol because many of them say this is a political hand of donald trump. so the committee is trying to get things done here as fast. and as soon as possible, and for them, it's a race against the time. and how likely is from to cooperative it's very unlikely, or he law that would mean he would testify on november 14th and give the committee the documents they are asking for november 4th,

that means in 2 weeks from now at the same time as you know and as you mentioned that the committee has collected overwhelming evidence including from a former staff and appointees of donald trump, which means that donald trump would be confronted with this evidence during the hearing term would have is his back against the wall then. and the other option he has is that his legal team can try and negotiate with the committee, trying to submit some of the documents, but not all of them. and his legal team will, of course, try to keep him out of testifying in 1st place. but the committee will probably not engage into any kind of negotiation. and the 3rd and last option donald trump has, is he could refuse and say he's not going to testify, and he's not going to submit any documents. and as we know, this could also have severe legal consequences. and in addition, one of trumps closest allies, the former strategist, steve bannon, was sentenced to 4 months in jail for his refusal to cooperate with the committee.

exactly where he le banana is as a 1st person to be sentenced to jail for a contempt of a congress in more than half a century. so this sends also an important message for others involved in the capital riots in january 6th. and it sets a clear standard for future cases, referred to the justice department by the committee investigating the capital attack. again, a clear sign, a tier message to others, including 2 former president donald trump. and more broadly speaking than what does this mean for the investigation into via capital riots? or we can see that the committee is far a far more, more than just this special committee on the attack on the capital in january 6. and they have the power to refer specific cases. so the justice department and these cases and the person accused in a case like that by the committee, might even end up in jail as we have as seen today in the case of c panel. so this

shows that the committee, it's really powerful in that sense. all right, that is t w's carrying that she boy in washington dc. well, idea is facing one of the worst floods in decades. heavy rains have led to the largo down to overflow in neighboring cameroon. a number of states in the countries, se is one of the most affected. millions of people have been displaced to dublin fourish to cora reports. this is what the rainy season usually looks like in a number of these in southeastern nigeria. and this is what the scene community looks like now. swollen weavers have inundated numerous towels and villages across nigeria cause in 1400000 people to flee their homes for camps set up on higher ground. 27 out of 3060 happy and affected. and ambros teeth is one of the

was heaped. one 3rd of the state is now on the water. we are suffering, but suffering is better than stealing. that's why we are here in this condition. the clothes that i'm wearing and the only ones i have left, the flood carried away all our belongings. lujan, all our schools have been destroyed by water. so our plea is anyone that can help us should help us. any one that you help us should help us please local angels and philanthropists as crumbling to help where be can people here see the feel neglected by the government? the government needs you haven't gone and not seen only residents with key infrastructure swallowed by water. many of the

flooded communities are without power, and people's generators have been destroyed. critical infrastructures such as schools, health care centers, police stations, and banks can't operate. the nigerian government says that thought they received early warning signs of the flood. they never foresaw, at this level of destruction, and with the number of farmlands that have been washed away. there are concerns about foot scarcity in the coming months. south eastern nigeria is at risk of flooding, at least until the end of the rainy season in november. of the dublin sir skirt file that report shield has more on what likely caused is floods. there are several other things that have been attributed to this flood. of course, there is climate change. we are seen on usually heavy rainfall according to the authorities, but there is also lack of planning on the path of them on the part of the nigerian

government, whether it's long term planning or short term planning. in the short term, the nigerian government local authorities, were informed that this flood was going to happen, but not they're wearing prepared enough. you know, they didn't prepare people enough. otherwise we wouldn't. i've seen this number of deaths even if we could our we couldn't afford the loss of properties, but the blythe is our last. many people believed that this is completely avoidable . then there is also the physical plan in aspect of it. nigeria does not have enough infrastructure, you know, in terms of, of whether it's a damn to really receive all this water or in terms of drainage systems. and of course there are also people who are building or reba banks. i. so when this revised overflow, this is the kind of situation that you have on. let's take a look at some other stories making years around the world. the un security council has adopted
