best has gone on. what do you think? what's your opinion feel free to leave a comment? the this is dw news advocates coming up on the program. once again, china pleasures billions for africa, but are more chief loans, creating dead traps for african country. as african leaders attend the china advocate summit in beijing, changing pain promises deeper ties and billions of dollars for the continent. but some young africans have had enough of china finance prestige projects, which they say lead them and future generations into a very disappointed i feel bad to our government is lucky sending to us mainly is

that most things taken care of. and so i expect 3 measurements we didn't say as because i had to put in, put a negotiated use on behalf of the government that i don't get to see the benefits and to get to see very professional as a text thinking plus farmers in northeastern united syria or under siege from boca around military. the government has deployed a new security force to protect them. but will it be enough to stop the violence and prevent the food crisis from escalate the unlike look who welcome. more cheap loans in more jobs for africans. that's the problem is chinese liter, changing pain is making to the continent. it came at the 9th china africa summit, which is brought hundreds of african political and business leaders to beijing.

it's an opportunity once again for china to show it to geo political and economic ambitions. for africa, the worlds fastest growing regions. several deals have been signed on trade and cooperation. however, the chinese economy has been slowing down in recent years. and that has had a knock on effect on many african economies leaving some of them in d dead and unable to repay the loans. china is the biggest investor in the african continent and the continents largest bi lateral trade partner of loans to africa increase from 2000 to 2016 only to slow down dramatically in recent years. now china is offering an increase of more than $50000000000.00 in loans, to create $1000000.00 new jobs and boost infrastructure projects threefold over the next few years. so our more cheap loans really what africa needs will have some

analysis in a moment. but 1st, we look at one of the countries having problems with repayment to that is kenya to help pay for the many loans. the government imposed tax likes, which sparked violent protests. many canyons are painfully aware of the downsides of seemingly attractive infrastructure projects, finance, but china like the $5000000.00 railroad that was supposed to transform pena into an industrialized middle income country, connecting it with it's made by uganda. but the track stuff showed up to go to because of unpaid that the project became insane. this as the prime example of the pitfalls of boring corruption and mismanagement right away. it's just one example of large scale infrastructure projects financed by china. the critics say, well neither financially viable know to the benefit of most canyons. this elevated

highway connecting the ruby with his international applewood has also been criticized. the tax paid was bad and with the costs, but only few canyons can afford the right citizens would have decided to see the money invested in health care or education. china is can use biggest lender by country. it owes beijing $7000000000.00, mainly for the development of roads, rails important, the structure experts say the continent is hoped on china's easy money. africa now is in a comfort zone. and can, you know, of course. so we, we know that even if we go broke, we can get some money. so there's that, that cycle also. now when you go and get money from them, then they do not really assume any question stronger. i mean, they don't tell us, you know, that's a tax people them, they don't really interfere with the internal affairs of the country. nothing to pay off its debt to the i. m. s. kenya's president william due to proposed tax increases. but there were wide and unpopular and let to months long and debbie

quotas across the country. so it was closed at the end and the tax hikes and does no, again, i'm less complicated loans from china. struggling under a cost of living prices and unemployment. young canyon say they've had enough of china finance prestige projects that lead them and future generations and debt. instead, they want more drops they should be able to incorporate it to the union use. it should be able to give them an opportunity so that they can also benefit from this . i'm very disappointed. i feel that to our government is nothing sending to us means that not being taken care of. and so i expect to be national improvements. uh, as it goes ahead, which includes a negotiated use on behalf of the government that i don't get to see the benefits. i only get to see that he thought, gosh, one which i feel as a, as a text thinking in kenya's told me that is equivalent to 2 thirds of its g d p. interest payments alone are eating up more than

a quarter of the revenue. it connects to that and the economic crisis can yes, and don't leave william root too much choice in negotiations with china. other than to ask for even more loans of service a board because, but china could do more to help african countries to escape the death cycle of the current coming ports. industries here, that even if we don't have the 5 minutes to do the finished product. but it cut adds value so that we don't just ship out, you know, roll my to use. then we can have more jobs full of your guns. and so we don't have to keep big as you know, and, and trying to emigrate to other countries that are more developed. china is focus for the summit, has now shifted from financing big infrastructure to green technology and energy canyon's hope. this time, it will benefit them more now joined by all the conceptual kenyon and financial

advisor, n c o of rich management. welcome ali. thank you. as we just saw in the report there from kenya, some african countries are struggling to repay their loans. will the pledge by she ultimately help africa, or will it likely create more so called debt traps for countries like kenya? so you know, there's been a significant to commitment to in the latest announcements each by seeking thing is committed to $51000000000.00 over the next 3 years. bear in mind the total commitment of a 2006 to 2021 was about a $191000000000.00. so this is a significant chunk of change. but really that there have been issues around sustainability around get loads with africa. and that's what citizens is struggling with. math effort couldn't get countries for the most part over borrowed, misspent,

and the price has to be paid. and that's why we're at the moment. so to be clear, what side of this do you come out on a or you hopeful or might you be skeptical? so overall i, you know, i do believe the chinese african relationship was consequential relationship for the african continent. and bates less than the biggest trading bought that, and they've been a significant provide. they have extra capital. but i do, i do believe that after the governments have over borrowed, i think we are responsible, as african citizens of holding all i need is to account because it is a good bar if this money misspent it is not because of a, the responsibility of the as a chinese store. so i think on, on the most part i'm optimistic and particularly the optimist it because the sentence and re for the 1st time that's out and that person is understood this and

as understood what leadership has done and it's folding leadership to account your canyon yourself. you were born there, raised there and now run a business out of nairobi. no doubt you've been keeping an eye on reports, are frustrated. canyons, especially young people taking to the streets to protest over tax hikes. did you hear any action from the summit that might help kenya mitigate this? so, you know, at the end of the day it's not china who's going to buy another silver bullet to reduce tax is think, you know, ultimately as long as be to ship that's got outage, the financial affairs of all countries, besta effectively use their own expenditure of them and 6, and create environments, gross which will increase at stake. i think what we're dealing with here in 10 years, the results of a previous administrations, of which the president was kind of sending detached,

where we sold massive profit gets the massive a creaming off the top. and that's the price we're paying for right now. and this is no different to many of the assets and countries, but i think we've got a whole into account. this is a very tough period that effort and come to the game for, you know, and ultimately it's not, it's not going to be solved by just raising texas because there's that he's so much you can squeeze for 11 and what we're watching now is 11 is saying we've had enough . mm. but let me ask you this. it's, it's no secret. most chinese investment has been on infrastructure. roads where ways to give africans means to travel potentially to work. but then also enabled the chinese to extract some of our youth to plunder. and critics also say that infrastructure is usually built by chinese contractors, not locals, paid for with african dad or africans, essentially getting a raw deal that some would argue. so i think, you know, this been

a challenge for the asking for more than a century, which will about extraction of all mature without any value addition exported into pebble ma africans talk received new people site. and interestingly, in particularly a lot of the critical manuals that the next century ought to be found on, they asked me put down the question is, how does after could go about getting a better deal for itself? the 1st thing is get as many people sitting opposite you on at the table and to be that for able to negotiate the best deal for your citizens and then the next not working for us. at times we blank that on you just have not negotiated what best of what was the best interest of the citizenry. that's the going to change and what was the best it is the best interest of themselves going forward. i think we look

at how we negotiate with all our partners. china is one of them and one of the most important ones. and i think once we get to that point, and once we negotiate, you know, in the interest of the, of the continent, we will get better deals. i notice, but the big in his speech made comments to that effect, seeking to create to 1000000 jobs on the continent. i think that's the way forward we bought. we do. i think indonesia is probably the best pri costs for africa. they literally told folks who, what extracted menus. no, no, no, you're gonna have to put factories, processing guns in country, and many countries and many companies were forced to do that. that's the way for with the got to infrastructure. we need infrastructure. well, 1300000000 people need to be collected, and that is also critical at the for, i think, you know, one con, criticized china for building, you know, 800000 kilometers of roads, 10000 kilometers the railways and building as

a boat. it was necessary, but you can criticize for its blood. these good deals take the canyon s g. i mean, that is just an embarrassment when you think about which was meant to collect the entire reach. and it's just between never been them that's, that's, it's a point that's a white elephant as it stands. so you can look at specific transactions and say, no, this did not work out. and then inspect the reasons. and those reasons are interesting when you look into them deeply, and i think that's more of your people on, on the streets of directory where essentially understanding and for the 1st time i had people who read some joined up thinking and say it's, it's about the deals that you guys did where you're giving us much to think about our deep thanks to all the con, such true kenyan financial advisor and ceo of rich management. i pleasure. suspected boca,

ron militants, have killed at least 8 people in north eastern nigeria. police, a roughly a 150 insurgents stormed into the village of muffle on motorcycles shooting. residents dead and setting buildings on fire. dozens of bodies have been retrieved, but authorities say many are still missing. and few, the death toll could rise. authorities say it appears to be a revenge attack for the killing of 2 militants by village atlantis. from the village book, a rom, have killed more than 40000 people in the northeast. in the last 15 years, the group has also been terrorizing farmers in northeastern nigeria, the militants of steel crops, and kidnapped agricultural workers for ranch them. the government recently deployed a new security force to protect the farmers. but it hasn't been enough to stop the attacks. as dw christine wound was report from warner state,

the violence is exacerbating food shortages in the region with catastrophic consequences. not long of the it wasn't safe to be on this farm land on the outskirts of my duties as it used to be controlled by bulk of around jihad, dis, militants. well, the location we are now, the jo location is best to describe the more lead slice of the la area near and out was and was it no greater? i just like you said, because it was uh, i truly invented by the terrorist but to dental vision. and the military and unless it came to genesis or been able to assist them to tide and then repel them falling backwards from the city. the rural communities are under such threats that the states has deployed ranges to protect them. otherwise they'll be targets for best

extortion and even kidnapping for ransom. now, soldiers, civilian volunteers, and even for my bulk of our i'm fights is patrol while farm is 10 their crops. but the ranges are only on duty for search and fix day time, hours, and work within a boundary set by the ministry sub allow me and he'll look his stock early to get the most done in the time they have. we can, we add on it's, we can get out of school. it is. you said design. i'll ask you to do so or k, the up to one. and they do that duties of duty after the time with that, we are given the clause, that is one that we have to live before everybody will rush and go but for a lot you go need. the security is the most enough to of his 3 farms beyond the

ministry's boundary. the problem is that that is, um it is, it will know if i'm able to have the funds. so yeah, it was village because as pam, i didn't put up. so do you book, i don't like that you thought it would do, would it would now since the incident i would that from so i have never been via the 02019 is the beauty but 2220 to of the did nobody waiting? there wasn't no problem. the other one is to take you to go there. i'm so a lot, let me look, give me that. so it does when, when do but not everyone is being so cautious they are all farm is taking risks. i'm told they are returning to a band and land without ministry protection. they say it's small 1st house and it's with the money they have to pay to vocal around to use this. but security official say these all the farm is that all being kidnapped and killed and they're calling on people to stay within the area. they can protect this format,

survived and encounter with both a lot of suitcases. i have been planned, so i'm guessing. all right, i'm ready. that's wendy services came on. they took a cellphone god and money. also from on naples, they are human, which are 3 people they kidnapped, and they took them a week and demanded run sketchy. so could you have a, a mazda would be in security for the farm is, is worsening and already bad food crisis in the region. the u. n. sold food program saves 3000000 people in photo stage of food and secure at this a facility. and by degree mon, nutrition cases have reached records levels every year we see a size of the place in cases, but uh, as soon as 2022 it has been different. and so it's, yeah, it's increased actually i'm usually like a $24.00 increase compared to the previous year. and then this. yeah, it's away much higher than the previous year. so it last week. so it's very

difficult for a team because we've got so many patients coming in and also so many very sick. also some of them would been, is been sent across and the, unfortunately, we lost a good number for a week. i would say almost fits as something special sites. the rain full has been basis, the season raising hopes for a good harvest. but that will make farm is even more vulnerable to vocal her on medicines who be looking to steal the crops. they've worked hard to cultivate for more, i'm joined by dw, is way too eager to see joins us from the nigerian capital buddha lacey, you know, northern nigeria very well. in fact, the area in question is not far from where you were born in, grew up, give us a sense of the climate there right now. and the conditions people are currently

living under the condition which people are leaving presently. is this tuition of the decision of frustration and estimation of a set time because of the issue of is security? is there any season where from us i suppose to be very busy adapt funds? what that is, what's happening, people that i'm mine is to go to the funds. i went there with a lot of. yeah. because a plus when i taught by vocal hi, rob that had been happening or doing, the government had what it called a broad range of what doors cannot protect people. they have not been protect 2 pieces, you know, given the security agents we have from the military to the police to the plan plot the, i'm not able to provide the protection that is needed. so that is that,

yeah, in people different the local government areas where the government, we looked at it, people from the i d p comes in my degree, the capital of what it listed on the us to go visited where the and the ticket back them. but it is for me, within that little kind of government that you can have that protection. people have more trouble. 1015 outside the local government to do any c as a way to the job and in between. one will come into the ad that you need me to, to export, or you just take a risk and on your off every major highways you need me to s. so it's a very terrible condition. this is what i mean to northeast, even into northwest, where we have monday, 3. when did have taken over by default, you cannot go to the file. if you have to do, you have to pay a 2nd. taxi's,

allow you to plan. you come to have this, you have to pay it taxes. when you all have visited, it is period where by sort of the proofs of it before i have this to put some money to plenty, i didn't wish to kind of go on to what you planted but cool. so that is the vision in that area. and now the way to a question, people continue to ask and will continue and persistent, asking until this whole thing is resolved. why does bulk of around keep targeting civilians? and in this case of the farmers there were, there are several reasons for, for her. um, is there a good that sheet on you formation when the touch severely of that is read, the get large number of people there isn't a tackle by 100 people were acute in your district. way i do see that number, if you are attacking military or police or districts or any security age and how

many people i did send and how many buses defend the, maybe 1015 months more. thank you. so that type of disability has to get a patient to show that yes we are from, they've been doing the best it did to submit to us. we can still come back. that is number one. number 2 is to prove it that yeah, we didn't to people that we have to wrong, would you don't go anywhere if you do the military or the good thing come provide security. they cannot do that. so when did i taught large number of civilians and then publish to do this. i had it kind of protect themselves. somebody with a q $4.00 to $7.00 on a piece it moves. it gives the idea that for you to have gone to protect yourself, you have to rely on the government. so didn't know that this is something i get a touch civilian, i get away with it. and then that is what i mean. but nutrition does what i do home

for the one to see that yes, the good been displayed in depth and go and continue. because when people come not from what would be the result? they wait, that's a definitive trend. they know it's about finding, finding, finding, and when you don't allow them to go from, then the us holding it point in the on site to the should that does it. so just so you continue to the modem part of the country way. so most of us can only imagine the fear and frustration residents are dealing with successive governments, as you very well know, have pledged in bulk of around. here we are still talking about them. why is their defeat proved to be so difficult? there are several reasons why then i don't got many. so unable to disseminate or

bring an end to this number one i duty i is watching a body that will we? this is not one desk around, and the attack on go back is more like in norman war. web by your enemy is on this site on your own data sites. you can usually talk about tool galleries, issue of 40 to come. we looked up to you see that the government, if they are serious, they've come bring an end to this problem for long. again, we see it was there and that's where will in did do check out our other stories on d, w dot com slash traffic a or of course on social media, we leave you with these pictures of the parish. 2024 paralympics were several african athletes have been competing for metals. we'll see you next time. bye for now. the
