6:36 pm
a blessing you from the university of south africa, she is a water resource management specialist. hello. thanks for joining us. so ron more tests, as i mentioned on this project and people are going days without tap water. what exactly is that problem being fixed and how bad is it a wallet at this point in time, the problem that drowned what it is trying to fix is they're basically replacing valves. and then imputing multiplies between some of their booster stations. and at this point in time and large part of janice biggs, are you covered by one booster station? so that's called the, i don't know if there's this station, if that station files or if there is a power outage, then large bunch of jo bags since without what is so they are trying to address that issue. people have been complaining about what the issues for years. it's even east as we saw us in some areas. why has this been going on for so long?
6:37 pm
unfortunately, lack of political wellness management. what's a governance? and basically just the, the lack of skills or the lack of knowledge that's being transferred over the years . but the primary issue that we have been sitting with these misappropriation of funds. and then the complete lack of funding for will to try and address these issues. us yeah, in the metropolitan areas we have, it's a little bit easier if you can pull it that in the rural areas and this one that downs that or it is sitting with what major water shortages which are weeks on end . and not just a couple of days like you're enjoying this big talk on south africa. meta honda. that's what the problem is especially you know, talking about some of the issues you mentioned including at the aspect of climate change which is going to even make shortages. where's slow? we will have to start the pointing people with the appropriate knowledge and skills in the right areas. most of our municipalities are dysfunctional of
6:38 pm
a $150.00 of them are close to collapse, 40 to the have already collab. so there is a major issue with local municipalities which are responsible for the governance of wastewater treatment works, what's your infrastructure, etc. so if us in the country and obviously the government, if they can appoint people that have the necessary skills as well as the necessary knowledge retention and immediate, the registries that we currently experiencing and try to avoid an overall price is where we sitting with majorly polluted water resources that can be used and then also want to infrastructure that has officially then collapse. meaning that no tabs will come on which will come out about tabs. let me get a quick response on this aspect. uh some places are much better recycling, rain, water, and waste water. and i mean, in south africa rain,
6:39 pm
what size me reading quite a wow. hasn't it? that's not how this huge i in terms of recycling reading wasn't waste water in south africa and across africa. in terms of rainbows, obvious thing, yes, that is a very good am solution, but that's supposed to be implemented in our rural areas way what the infrastructure is either absent or it has collab 3 d. so right, which obvious thing is fine in terms of and subsistence farming and then also washing of clothing, but not for drinking water. there are some health concerns when it gets to rainwater of this thing, especially you do the bacteria and that can grow in the water when they are stored in the tanks for a long period of time in terms of other solutions you've mentioned water re use. so i'm going to college in areas already during that, and however it can obviously be improved upon. and we should also look at the so long as ation. so therapy guides, a very long coastline with that to, with those and being an untapped resource. i know they also looking at um, balls,
6:40 pm
especially within a rural areas once again. but once again, the issue will be, who is going to maintain so whether the morocco is on the set africa, all nigeria super falcons for african teams are competing a busy as women's world cup in australia and new zealand, which starts on the 20th of july. and i, jerry, i is the confidence most successful side in the woman's game. what they've been special this time is that they will be led by the captain who is set to play and has 6th wealth cap tournament, and record for an african play, a male or female deed of use. at least i took them. i caught up with her and some teammates in lake us. i had off the tournament. a b is no stranger to a top flight soccer. nigeria is women's football team,
6:41 pm
captain is scrolling through the years after representing a country for 2 decades. ok. next week, the 14 year old will be put in on the national jersey for has 6th well to golf tournament, an african record because of the love of the game. and the destination is 0 though is i want to get so that's the. busy go to the highest level football kitchen going, but they actually it how excited they for. well, i always tell them i sat there for both of my mom. so i thought i'd taken everything like i from i was like 4 or 5 when hi kerry. i didn't start quite early, she didn't make an international debut in 2003, but on the mass says and lot as seems changed in the women's game. well, what was that a play and i know i'm fearful money i just paid for by so on. and that's on me.
6:42 pm
i would say this is, this is why you like i was excited. i need to get to this. is that what we paid like this? is an emergency when that says off, i'm going to take care of off i'm going to, despite my jury, as of its problems on him, is that you've been, i've been a source of inspiration for have seen makes i think, uh its uh, it shows that the level of disability hasn't a physical, you know, which much you was able to take care of as of and also in the clinic. mean she has the games and she's the veteran. she's the captain going into the world. go for the stime is, is incredibly amazing. this goes to show that age is not a fact though it is the state of the mind that keeps you performing. that state of mind appears as strong as ever and may have given no indication that she plans to retire as an inspiration for africa's next generation. you don't get. busy sending messages over the time. how do you do this? how do you do that?
6:43 pm
know that i'm even going for these things. how so much with his back to his by the initial, it's a little more like that's how something doing that for me is you know about, it just makes me want to go more and more. it'd be easier to. i mean to meet her. it seemed like the youngest a group stage of the tournament nigeria will be making the 9th women's welcome appearance, the only african team to do so small this let's bring in julia de la and award winning sports dentist to joins us now from brisbane, australia, where she will be covering the world capital julia. it's so nice to see you. so while nigeria has a lot to celebrate that also major financial and organizational challenges that affects the team. how bad is it? as i'm thank you very much. i'm any good to be here and the fact you mentioned these things continued to play women's football, especially in africa and even beyond an open issues of that nature,
6:44 pm
given little to no attention. like we've seen in a couple of weeks, we expect that they will be resolved even before the tournament kicks off next week and asked you may also know this has also attracted the i a of the quotes that is on the run, the waldrum who also slammed the nfl, what he thinks um, missile proliferation of funds and he also insist that but um it is set to leno right. the plan out as far back as, um, 2 years ago, we've seen that with um, countries like gonna and even come around and other so this is nothing new, but we hope that this will not happen again going forward. so i'd say it's the most successful african team in the women's world cup. what are the chances this time around? yeah, i'm interesting. i think um they can definitely go 5 problems or not. um the score looks very hungry for faxes. i've seen them train and um it is not to have to tell
6:45 pm
you have um the lives of oh man maybe who is making has certain will cap just like on brussels. martha. so the experience is bad for someone like almost the central sheila, which you can mention the falklands without mentioning her name, it will be a fine opportunity for have to show up once again on the walls. these as she has done um open. this is also a score with the great depths of talent, and that can be to the advantage that in a very tough group with holes australia cut out an or republic of ireland. and then mean will be to get totaled back, which i think it's possible. and i'll just, i'd say, yeah, this also south africa is, i'm the, i'm a real quick break it down for us. what can we expect from these sites, as you can expect, a lot time with a finding mazda is that they play the sol. how vs done the gemini, so you can expect a lot of absolutely in barbara vonda who is very good for them beyond the captain
6:46 pm
who is ready to lead the on stuff, i guess other teams. i think it should be good for them. coming into the fast world cap and also desktop applicants set top, you have class will know that the month of this competition they've been there before and would like to put themselves in the individual way even when they have issues of the workers. i smell back home in south africa, make no mistake, also with more roku, with a kind of infrastructure and at the end of the pump into the game, the men's game and the women's game, the out of the team. you may need to pay attention to the quick pro misapplied unit, invest a pos just to get his version from. would be a men team that into sold the applicant, teens in the competition. i'm not just going to be in the push. will this rightfully so? look at the end of the day, no african team has won the woman's world copies 9 times, attempting to do so. so that's been a long way to go. what needs to be done to improve the quality of african woman's
6:47 pm
football at home and abroad? and will take a lot to do in the writings. and that will mean going to be companions with the very best, who are competitive over time, and have a lot of talent and discipline to win a big games and also big stadiums who have the character, how the car is much. so even with spend all the pressure that comes playing on this top level, you also need to, like i mentioned, you have big tournaments temperaments, and that helps as well. you see the lights of usa, brazil, and even though invalid, they have that big tournament temperament. so it will be really, really crucial for these african teams. technical direction, i think is also key. who you have, you know, dugout, this is as important as the players who may come back past 11, so we will have to do more behalf. they do things differently and see what the possible outcomes will be. thanks a lot. sports is not as good
6:48 pm
a bill for your time. thank you very much for holding. now, how many countries in africa have you visited? alto, 54 countries. i have been to 5 years. i know that's not good enough, but when you're gone couple headway to 12 and maureen, again from uganda, island admission to inspire more africans to discover they are confident they travel through that teen countries in africa on a 5 month road trip. now why that was fun? it wasn't always an easy journey, so they are calling for policy changes to make it easier for african forest to travel within africa. i just want us to highlights from the truth of a lifetime sign boating, and then it may be in desperate
6:49 pm
kind of a couple, maureen, again, an edward that twilio spent 5 months on a road trip through africa, covering 13 countries and 22000 kilometers black african tourist, they found for a rarity on the continent and often to face strict visa regulations in west and travel that the on the challenges the capital one to to reflect the choice of discovering africa from trying local dishes at roadside restaurants, including southern african delicacy, ma, piney wants to exploring landmarks like the grapes involved, we ruins and the sioux tooth, minutes and jani falls right. that is one of the longer long guess when cycling. freddy had just a couple of drive into malawi. they decided to help out with relief efforts.
6:50 pm
throughout the trip, they shut up tapes on line, realizing that was huge and trusts and what they were doing. empowering other africans to experience travel became key to the johnny because been amazing. never they imagined, but i told explore this country this much online so much. it's just loading unloading. i'm just just having fun to couple of sites for years to funds this rent . they want to show the africans can travel to consummate. and next time that touring, they hope to see more african tourists on the road. the lovely couple i had a child with maureen and edward and asked why they had settled on this african road trip. the 1st of all, it was to understand that up for shut up coincidence, and then keep trying document,
6:51 pm
because ultimately we want to get to pull out of this the trip. it's so going to the local interest because we share between social media and we are realized that the slow many of the guns on the continent quote, actually don't know the basics of traveling across the continent. so far as the wrecking of what it beeps, but also exploring the continents appreciating the diversity and the stimuli reaches an ultimately documenting these experiences for other off frequency trouble . let's talk about some of the main challenges you encounter because it wasn't all fine. was it not at all? i think we're in contact quite a number of challenges, especially posting bought of a couple of what as we had a couple of issues, but not in the regulatory. absolutely. uh that was the one of the main challenges we had. a lot of them was also races in some parts of the continent,
6:52 pm
but we need to expect that as well. and with the federal funding count as well. yeah. but mention make any because 4 across the board are crossing, i mean, your reasons i'm aspect is quite interesting for me to hear, but also one of the main challenges that people talk about. what africans are traveling within the hour and continent is that getting the visa is challenging, crossing board is, is challenging. what was, what was the main challenge of it? so i think the main challenge was the cost of the visa, a good one as mission mobilly to cross the course of interest in very big issue. so we need to be those for 3 countries that was sold off because i'm big on the medium . i'm just uh, between the tool box we spent about almost $700.00 on just 3 reasons. well, so you can imagine how much would that save the fuel or for other things to use that money for that we paid on visas. so if we could have
6:53 pm
a policy change our own batch, maple village, people of the guns, of course, the fortunately is the key to encourage and look to the guns flores in the country . i mean, edward, you've mentioned before that some of the challenges you found some sort of solutions to them. what way some of them i think a lot of them was to just to find a way of relating with people with strong that's a lot of points. if you, if you walk through the major point across it, you have a lot of challenges. one of the corruption and the engines and the closing. and so we did, i did very creative idea of trying to look for the, the list used. what up points that opened the in the month, but uh, we managed to find a couple very little keep up points well across from and from, from that point we absolutely have a lot of this move this dry and wishing what not that, and at all. so if you few,
6:54 pm
at the time, you want to find the give you a little time in terms of gender and welcome to the country. and there's room for small and function times the deals connections between you and then the question i sure sure i just wanted to be that it's more it's most 12 questions. oh yeah, but up when i'm talking about some of the major challenges. well, let's talk about also what surprised you the most? i think for me, the foot successfully does one of the most surprising. in sound. yeah, we've had lots and more of what one of the was. yeah. and for us that's on think about the new vendor. everybody thought about it was like, no, it can't be possible. and we also have what i would need, i think, which was quite surprised. but also, i guess, in terms of the control structure of the network in southern africa was by to pop
6:55 pm
in countries like my media solve actually tough. it's wireless and even somebody in the network was quite amazing and it's something that awesome stuff should inspire. yeah. okay, that's good to know. look, i have so many questions about very little time to dig into it, so we'll have it here. i'll get the rest of the info back stage, maureen again and edward at 12. thanks a lot for your time or thank you very much for having this. and that's how we wrap it up from all of our stories. go to dw dot com slash africa, or visit us on facebook and twitter. we'd be with pictures of maureen and edwards journey across africa. i. i'm faddie mike, a junior, so you soon bye for now the,
