and one of the continents most significant political events, africa correspondent, caribella toddler, who is currently in the nigerian city of lincoln's report on the latest developments that though is good. oh, ting is winding down, but emotions are watching up here in the capital simba and at least law goes and everywhere else, there is a feeling of dispute that will forever marred these elections. people feel disenfranchised, especially in some voting areas, where voting material didn't even make it in some way. hearing reports, that thugs have gone as far as to destroy eating material. notwithstanding the halting, the polling stations, rather way with tolling started lea itself, even areas like this, as you can see behind me that emotions,
1:05 pm
i keep wretched thing up as people really want to know what's behind some of the main nation that they have seen from. i make that the independent national electoral commission in areas such as the one behind me counting has already begun because the number of people that are registered on the polling list have already voted you hearing a lot of skirmishes, a lot of back and forth. people are talking about what they're interested party is should be getting there is a lot of saudi to what labor and there is a lot of youth disenfranchisement throughout the country. the youth almost leaning that there is a conspiracy theory, at least that the, the are being fought against by the establishment as it were. a lot of youth is really excited around one candidate than that is the candidacy of mr. p. towel b. and they're saying that this, that this are, you know,
1:06 pm
these problems that we've had from the independent electoral body. i really just a way of, of causing a hurdle in, in p t r o b, destiny rather march towards to the, the presidential seeds as it were. and that is something that we're hearing around . no one, not even the big news cast as not independent bodies. are going as far as to say, who is leading this election because the information, as i say, it's very scattered and no one really wants to pin there their head to the masters and where to say who's leading. and that information is only being relayed to by party agent. and i don't think that is really a source that you can trust because they have vested interest with regards to the dissemination of the fed. information here and leg was particularly when one looks at the security password. now that's been deployed for this election. well over
1:07 pm
400000 members of the security person now that's, that's our me, that's police and other security agencies that are here to safeguard the selections . are now on edge more than ever before, more than even in the morning. and as you know, we wouldn't necessarily see pictures like this with people scattered around. because like jerry are, when voting commences, every thing shuts down everything. we're talking shops, we're talking schools, we're talking restaurants, we're talking anything that you can imagine barring, of course, hospitals for emergency services. but everything literally says that in order to encourage the electorate to go out there and cast their vote. but this one in particular, having seen the kinds of growth that we have seen, an exponential growth, especially in the registration of people between the ages of 18 and 14. that showed up by itself some 48 percent. and the youth are really expecting that to be more than just
1:08 pm
a number. they expecting it to translate into votes and hence the thing that they feel that at their strongest that's where. busy they were most sabotaged. the police can try and be there and thereabouts, but they really can't be every way and is a very large country. there's been a number of students of thugs being able to get their hands on materials of polling stations, really not hearing to some of the the guidelines that have been encouraged with regards to where we get the voting to go. despite the deployment of the number of people here, the number of security personnel isn't a jerry and police power and authority can not really guarantee the safety of every polling station. well, the 19000000 people reportedly registered to vote at one of almost at 177000 polling stations across the country of this year, candidates have some rather stiff competition. 18 people are running for the
1:09 pm
presidency with the 1000 vying for 109 themes in the senate. 3000 for 360 seats in the house of representatives. his awesome nigerians expect the election results to pass out. it means talk in having the same same set of governance, you know, over and over. we just want something new. we want, we want to have hope for beth and engine light came out. well, my expectation for the next governance government 1st is 1st type in the security major. i'd, i'd expect new global name on the bus, new dawn sports. i believe it's the right fit in the right direction. we spoke with international and political expert khalifa, ali dick la stationed in nigeria. he says the election process is going according
1:10 pm
to plan. i might be able to people not even if there's anything additional themselves out of the 100 upside. that's why didn't i get it so that does not get would be an africa in the, in the us international. i mean, it just not, we're not given when the time did with them and it's likely to be again, they give it a positive. i'm saying that it may not be enough and done. i'm the why why my teacher in
1:11 pm
a seems that 9 rounds of functions didn't do the trick for the e. u. s. brussels is now approved at the latest 10th package of restrictions on europe. trade with russia. we now have the most far reaching sanctions, ever depleting russia's war arsenal and biting deep into its economy. you stands united with ukraine and the ukranian people. we will keep supporting ukraine for as long as it takes. well, you have to think at this point that the biggest surprise that these new european sanctions against russia is that there's still anything left to sanction at all every single time the buses adopt new sanctions. so 10 times now, it's always accompanied by such strong rhetoric. the most forceful and far reaching sanctions ever says the blocks presidency right now. now every single time we hear this kind of rhetoric, we're maxed out. and every time we also learn what had not been bound up until now, which is actually really interesting and very telling,
1:12 pm
apparently the you really needs russian rubber and was reluctant to split from that . some might also be surprised that the you still had not cut off some russian banks alpha bank and the online bank tink off. we're still connected to the swift system, but are now targeted for cut off by these new sanctions. high tech advanced industrial parts that can also be used in weapon systems are no longer to be exported to russia. and apparently, up until now they were ok. another 11400000000 euro loss in export revenue for the e. u to add to its previous self imposed revenue cut of 32500000000 euros. it's also sanctioning members and supporters of the wagner military group, private military group. but for activities in molly and the central african republic, which last i checked were part of ukraine. sounds like that was
1:13 pm
a request made with love from paris. the arabic versions of russian linked media. sputnik and r t are also now under the same blanket online and broadcast censorship as other r t and sputnik affiliates from the wonderful defenders of press freedom. so the big question is, all this going to be at moscow to do what you want it to do? and ukraine, which is of course leave, let's asked the white house how it's been going so far with these kinds of measures . the russian economy is showing some resilience in a way. but that is thanks to extraordinary moves to the lustre results of the sanctions in attempting to bring russia to its knees was reflected also in the shrill, aggressive comments made by western officials at this month's munich, safe space. or i mean munich, security conference about the need for moscow to be defeated on the battlefield. we often hear. busy that the sanctions are better than direct military confrontation
1:14 pm
which. busy nato members routinely claim to want to avoid with russia while except for german foreign minister and the lena bear. bog, who apparently didn't get the memo and said at a council of europe meeting recently, that the e u wasn't war with russia. but the french military is nonetheless now holding a massive military exercise the largest in 30 years. it's called ryan 23. so a ryan 2023. and it was decided back in 2020. in preparation for what it's commander, nikolai didn't know, describes as quote, the return of big operations on french soil. orion 23 main objectives refocused training on armies on modern conflicts. in particular, high intensity, evaluate internal command capabilities for large scale operation. so this exercise comes after years of france focusing primarily on counterterrorism. and counter
1:15 pm
insurgency. seems like a really strange thing to have figured necessary way back in 2020, to have french soldiers storming the beaches of the south of france. 7000 francs soldiers are involved in these maneuvers and the last until march they started just a few days ago. it's get increasingly difficult to hear western officials paying lip service to peace. under all this belligerent talk and belligerent action in front of the russian embassy in berlin, germans calling for peace, have placed schools of roses, and i just destroyed russian tank. the tank was originally placed bear the thought, a monument in support of ukraine. but as you can see, citizens went happy with the intended display of hate, local, say, the nation should be negotiate, should negotiate with the nation to negotiate and solve problems using diplomatic means on to be sure,
1:16 pm
this is very important. we have 2000 roses to decorate the tank, so our government can finally start negotiating with each other and with others. not only to supply arms, but to establish diplomatic relations and not to act in a rushed manner. that is the most important thing. we have to talk to each other and we are not enemies. we are not against ukraine or russians. we are friends. we have been building this relationship for 30 years. well that tens of thousands more have taken to the streets in berlin, demanding the government stop, fueling the war. our german correspondent dominic re chad springs as more l well above 10000 people year to basically show their support for the manifest. so off piece, which was a started by a thought of, i can connect their popular left when politician and alice swats are popular feminists in germany. they started this manifesto, it was signed by 600000 people. and then they also did invited everyone to come
1:17 pm
here today to also state their support for this. what this manifesto is asking for, it's asking for a massive piece initiative from the west, from germany, which also should be willing to make some compromises in order to achieve peace as soon as possible for this protest. there are a lot of reports from the mainstream media, especially here in germany, that would be supported as well by a far right groups than that is because the politicians are of our connect who's a very popular left politician also has followers on the right who agree with her takes, for example, on covert or on the war and ukraine, and she did not a distance herself too harshly from right wingers. so some of them did show up here and there were some conflicts between left and right wing groups. however, in general, this was a very peaceful protest, very large protest with, as i said,
1:18 pm
well above 10000 people showing their support for this manifest off peace between russia and ukraine. mall in london, a know to ne, so no to war. event has taken place on saturday with participants quoting for britain to leave the alliance as political tensions on the rise. the campaigns, main goal is to prevent the u. k. from being drawn into a direct conflict with russia, the attendees believed that nato, his actions of safer only aggravated the conflicts, and claimed that england would be safer and better off financially outside the alliance. according to reports, multiple venues were pressed into canceling the events. that's cool flies to get down. kamala came in late life attorney and one of the events keynote speakers. many, thanks for joining from the program down. could you tell us more about the campaign and what led to its creation and what it's doing to achieve its goals? yes, well it was organized by the workers. busy party of great britain,
1:19 pm
which broke off in the labor party because of the labor parties, amongst other thing, the labor parties unquestioned support for nato and militarism. and yet, as you mentioned, they tried to get to different venues they were cancelled out of. and finally, actually ended up at the boulevard and hall, the venezuela embassy was the only place that would even let them hold this event. they didn't even tell people where the event was going to be the night before. again, for fear that, that, you know, the venezuelan embassy itself could be bullied in, into rethinking their willingness stab this event. but yeah, the main goal of the rally is to urge the u. k. to stop supporting war and ukraine to stop being of asked to the united states and yeah, all going to lead to n nato, which is it alliance, which by the way,
1:20 pm
is not working to the benefit of europe as we see right now. and which frankly is an antiquated organization. they haven't worked initially. it's supposed to face it some concourse, then conway whole both of which council then know to nato bookings. what do you think accounts for the 2 venues, not allowing the group to meet at the locations? well, it's an incredible thing because saint pancras is a place that actually promotes free speech. it holds a lot of julianna's sons' rallies it even of years ago. protected heritage ex lulu were being persecuted by the government, but it would not allow this event in why because there is a lot of fear about repercussions for taking any stance against the nato, against the alliance with nato, and against the nato support for the war. new crime, this is probably not probably,
1:21 pm
this is definitely the most censored and under covered and miss covered war. certainly in my life i was support. would you say the notes nato campaign has in the u. k. i mean, i think it's big. i think it's growing. the poll showed that people knew at u k are beginning to turn against our support for specifically military support for you crime. they want their money to be spending home, and that's another call of this organization. and that is to spend money on housing to spend money on health care to keep the n h s health care system alive, which is always under threat. and did you that they have to stop sending money out the door on military adventures, including the money you and i and thank you for joining a program. us human and labor wise attorney down to valley really appreciate your
1:22 pm
