6:34 am
to, to take away risk, you know, to, of going in the members from, from the judiciary, police and then the presentation. the presidential got net taking on the national guard and taking the ministers back and putting them back in the denture. and so that a lot of that is, is troubling and certainly not according to the process. but i do not see really cool in this area. so for an attempt to take power by, by the, the volume and to re majority of the, of the page you say, in terms of the costs or something cool. well, yeah, the president's basically to be occasion to announced the dissolution of the volumes. and in this instance, actually, the concession is pretty clear um the volume and cannot be sold during the 1st year after the election. and we're only age mom's after the election. so, you know, the constitutionality of the president's decision is indeed very doubtful. and this

6:37 am
the war against portable. and so of course, in this context, it's been very difficult to develop in a dynamic economy. and in this context, the state is pretty much all the mattresses for folder people, we some education. so people fides very, all around the state. i mean a few people in unity, so when the point to collect means to be class basically really 5 hard to keep control of the results is and this gives the, the, the fighting around those limits and results is. ready sort of desperate them into an issue. you show nothing power, it's going to be difficult. and of course, you know, the legacy of these worries i've been evidence. he's an overall weight military, a very large mid to read in comparison to, to both of us relation on the budget. i know many to read that as a very strong sense of legitimacy to feel entitled because they were the ones were, supposedly you won't liberate the culture even though you know that it varies to the veteran's less to buy. now. so the structural effect of the southern, the
6:38 am
a strong part of the problem. and then of course, the way in which the leaders have rules in since independence and $74.00. he's also thought of the problem, the choices they've made, obviously, as an, as not allowed to transform the situation and to, to sort of create a better dynamic. thank it. fast, awful, shay for that insight and analysis. we appreciate it. thank you very much. i a can you this, i'll just the latest military associated jail break in west africa with 2 others in november gimme and see on the, on the why the region has seen cruise off to cook. in the last 4 years alone, there have been 7 ministry clues in wisdom, central africa, guinea, in 2021. but key in a fossil in 2022, and most recently, and they share it with the ministries these paula in july, chad and so done. also experienced ministry clues in 2021. and molly,

6:40 am
season is a good fire season here in the east of mauritania. bush fires like these can destroy a pastor crucial for livestock where just a few kilometers from the border with molly, where people have been fleeing violence for years. i was moved to miss owed arrived here in 2012. i won't, i won't. he volunteers with a fire brigade king to show us how they operate. the of the it hurts us when we see this burn land. it's like our hearts that were burning because it didn't get to see if our house had burned down. it's the economy and our lives that were burned down about the animals make up the economy in this region. the animals eat this grass a different burns, they have nothing to eat and they will die. so they use these branches from fire resistant trees to vash out the flames. the volunteer fire brigade was set up
6:41 am
in the camp square masses and the other river cities, if you for call center and we have to help each other out in the economy which is shared between us and the locals. yeah, about a budget in federal we have to do something even if we have nothing. let me send a bucket of business. i don't, i normally give our sweat and this is money to in a way. that's why we created this organization. we have to do something for them to the fire brigade attracts many refugees looking for meaningful action and social connections. 500 volunteers have joined since they were getting his ation was recognized by the you in reference to the agency in 2018. they've put out more than 135 fires on the, on the same, make friends here, get to know each other and the more attain ins and find an occupation to help forget the many things they experienced at home. especially in this period when
6:42 am
the new events in molly there's so many young people arriving at the camp day and night and on the, on the 100000 people living in them very i can are continually drawing to buy new refugees for mommy just this year. the una to sierra registered 10000 new arrivals and more have found shelter in villages near the border. my food has been here for more than a decade, but the violent and molly is ever present. she says his nephew was killed there this year. i do masonic on there are massacres, killings of anyone, anywhere or in any way possible. this year lives in the cities in the bush on the road, in the villages. some of the people, women who this really makes us feel very uneasy lives. i know
6:43 am
they have for my food still hopes that he'll be able to return tomorrow the one day . but until the violence there's thoughts, he'll stay here and fight fires with the other volunteers, rape and sexual abuse of men is often not reported. and that makes it difficult to get a true picture of how wide spread it is, but it is believed to be a major problem in nigeria. one organization working with men say, statistics tend to reflect one side of the story. i'll be talking to an expert on that off to this report from dw correspondent flash will bunny on the digital safe space that's helping them in nigeria find healing from their childhood trauma. this 29 year old man, let's call him daniel was sexually abused at the age of 6 by an older female. she
6:44 am
was unable that experience. he says completely changed his life. he now struggles with it, pornography and must the patient addiction and sees no way out. i will also go further, so i'll still get that. that would be that i'm single dollars out of my life. so now is getting married as a release of that. don't get me out of it. yeah. you saw it as fast on it, so that kind of thing. every. so it does, let's say the official subject was like, well we come up onto it, so keep up name. so we, we asked of the something he's doing what he can writing about he's experienced, i'm know, the most me hoping his story released by our parents to be more protective of the phones. and as a school teacher, he says he feels an even greater burden to prevent young ones from having ac me like spirit. it's hard to find any official fee because on the rates of sexual abuse among young boys in nigeria,
6:45 am
one we sent reports put the number 3 inc. 10 boys, a high number, but that hardly gets any attention on looking for a student. be the main conversational ai you also the day because middle strong man like 6, there's a lot of the stereotypes that we have. you society dots then to support those kind of neutrons. so much you do and she's friend started boys without borders to change such notions. it's a safe space online. we have men share the experiences since they started in 2020. they've heard from more than 14 men, many of the victims, one of the world to know that boys need attention to. what you do says it's only a 1st step to healing a. i think a majority of our respondents would tell you, did the notes once mean thoughts? so ports on. i think there's also ties bought to done no shown like why con 100.
6:46 am
it's myself. i'm on even though like this. it didn't need to actually talk about teach to like, or lose some of days to not understand the importance of booking through a professional. no, i bought this job and you guys think that is also one of the things that we're trying to work on now? do you see my phone? see is now reaching out to young boys in secondary schools. teaching them that it's ok to ask for help. monthly is really functional, mean printing, what you've received received by the cycle boys be called main, a main synch boys to be called me. so what we're trying to do is to reach out to the boys and these pages give them the right information. meanwhile, survival is like daniel who's saying that story, so you do just want people to pay more attention to the issue so that it doesn't happen in the 1st place. yeah, so keep, okay, i'm gonna do you want to have to kind of just kind of experience and very little
6:47 am
guys who wants to talk about still sadly, when you're moving noise, you might have sexual assault engaged. children happens globally much as they show the speed to women and goes, daniel, i do hope these kind of stories foster was not to forget about the police or i'd like to welcome adults have princess or the family coyote. she's an expert and responding to sexual and gender based violence as well as at 6 you, as he thought, said, that's the only say because you would be welcome to data being use africa. you founded media concert, an initiative for women and children. more than 20 years. ago, do we know how wide spread to sexual violence against men and boys is pdf from about 20 years ago? let me just state of about about 2005 when we began to respond to the issue in the country in terms of child sexual abuse. i'm creating this a windows left. we have
6:48 am
a problem when are we looking to reach? so we have children coming generally intervene center and calls coming in from parents. and what are these of what children? i'm just kind of both male and female. so we have boyfriend. yeah. so we've got to have boys mean these poor pen fees for 20 minutes, since that is just like to hold 0 in terms of the reports. and if you want to look into percentage on so the number of reports that came generally children corvette about 55 percent. for the structural melissa of cases we have from 2005 down to about 2015 bucks. boys, if you don't want to look at between male and female, you want to say about 25 percent of that we boys. but interestingly enough, now in the country as a whole, you have a lot of more reports coming out of the, in the notes that have to do with sort of strongly, official voice really, really, really been coming in in, you know, in a electricals anymore. it's coming in
6:49 am
a higher dimension. yeah. and that's in nigeria introduced a trail blaze of blazing law in 2015. this is the, the violence against persons prohibits. in fact, that change the law essentially to include rape of men as a crime. has that little been a game changer for survivors of sexual violence, guessing justice? indeed it has. it has really, really helped the rich cause, you know, to social identity as long as booked on mainland for women. because now it's good for women is no longer just pay. now, you know um some penetration, but he moved in the state and that is used cars all sort of way. so for them, we have a more reports coming out and then barely, i think close to the the false pizza. i am not 50. i was involved in those because as an ad from the federal level states also often complete the next. yes. yes. close to pay for have already and after that. and then of course we've, that's,
6:50 am
came some very wonderful interventions. now you have a states rest phones and fish on for the low clemency that is responsible for the addition of a lawful everything that needs to be placed for people to access health, the official policy having fish on health. then there also such i refer it also filters and requests into the country. now we have to goes to the about the 28th. if baltimore now sucks across the country. some in some states, some more than one in some states, just to one. i've been training of somebody healthcare, all of this is call me on that. in fact, the media can be rough, was the actual was and, and elected the 5th also becomes a max. the only deal with that with f. c. that's our resources for bunch. and he's an editor to office, particularly for maine with the ones that we don't use that pronouncements from right. that's the only thing to be k o d. i know that you are
6:51 am
a survivor of sexual violence. what would your message be to someone who has experienced or is still experiencing abuse and is still suffering maybe alone? what can they do? i guess health health is available, get stuck in the days when it happens to me. that was really annoying, but i sought health for myself because i knew that was much, much less than i was going to. um, that's just a self determination for me. i'm not everybody also has that's the nice on the world i do with, if in fact, every, every individual is different from the older person but gets helped very helpful. now people need to reach out a way i can get help. you may not even deal with a different what do you think speaking out about things and you specifically go to google, google. so just google, what are risk fall sense of where can i go? and that also can go, i'd have to back. it also means that everybody wants to go to the criminal justice system, particularly for adults, but you can get the help if you need didn't get the helpful. you don't come on to my, somebody's formed counseling thing you can gets medical assistance look up. if you
6:52 am
read and we'd be done, i'm $72.00. i was here to assess what was called post of special photographers. if you don't even know mostly what happened to you, the little screen they'll be don't for you maybe come and maybe show it still have this life event is free. so we need to know that there was help. i'll definitely you issue report or you don't really want to post a case. anybody you don't want to go. so we're going to, it's as you'll start from one of them, i don't see a personal decision on which would be respected just fine. what i need is the main system, and of course the customer may be therapy, i can get to be better so that i can let this weeks the fit of this whole team and be, you know, in the, in goes to thoughtful for you. so a viable and there is help me very soon. thank you very much for that stuff, the princess or the family coyote. we appreciate that. a. thank you, the and it's to south africa
