NIGERIA YOUTH GO FOR REGISTRATION NOW
About this event: DESPLAY Youth Democracy and Good Governance Training Program
Related to country: Nigeria
About the book: "The Google Story: Inside the Hottest Business, Media, and Technology Success of Our Time"

Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

We are not just number or sort of biological accidents here in Nigeria. Our vote counts and we make up to about 40% of Nigeria entire population. We cannot have good electoral democracy in the absence of credible participation of the young people of Nigeria home and abroad. Our vote’s counts. It is now or never. We can partner with the adult to make things work in this great country. We are the future hope of Africa and we cannot afford to fail this expectation. We cannot have that dream jobs if the governance in shambles and shackles. Someone needs to rise up to this challenge. ‘Yes change can really happen if we care’ I personally care and what about you?

From my recent interaction with the INEC institute in Abuja FCT, during my internship the federal Capital, I discovered that the voter registration in now a continuous thing in various INEC offices across the Nation. It is now young people can capture good governance by going to register if one has not by now. Also, encourage others to do same. We cannot be use again by some ambitious politicians as thugs or to cause violence….Arise oh compatriot, Nigeria calls obey now. We can choose our leader by credible participation in the electoral process. Please rise now and go for registration if you have not.

At least 26 inmates have died from acute malnutrition at the main prison in the city of Mbuji Mayi in Kasai Oriental province since February. Four inmates died of hunger Since July 13 alone. The UN says it is particularly concerned because no measures are being taken to improve living conditions. It says many of the inmates have not yet been convicted of any crime. The UN is providing water to the prison on a weekly basis. (BBC)

Ethiopia

Army worms, hail and floods are adding to the woes of Ethiopians reeling from high world food prices and a drought that has affected some 4.6 million people, the UN said on July 23. Ethiopia has had the shorter of two annual rainy seasons fail, but aid agencies said earlier this month that a hunger emergency had been averted, although high food prices were still hurting Ethiopian families. Nearly 2,000 farmers in the southern regions of Welayeta and Gamo Gofa lost crops due to torrential rains, hailstorms and army worms, the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said in its weekly report.

Gabon

Gabon and Equatorial Guinea said July 22 that they have made substantial progress towards referring their border dispute to the International Court of Justice (ICJ), the main judicial organ of the United Nations. In a joint statement issued after two days of meetings at the UN Office in Geneva (UNOG), representatives of the neighboring African countries said they had worked on key documents for a planned joint submission to the ICJ, which would then adjudicate on the boundary. The maritime dispute between Equatorial Guinea and Gabon, which emerged in 2003, centers on an island which has oil resources. (UN News Service)

Kenya

Elders from Kenya's Luo community in western Kenya have refused to endorse a plan to promote male circumcision to curb the spread of HIV/AIDS. The Luo Council of Elders says it cannot sanction circumcision, as it is against the community's culture. A ministry of health campaign is trying to encourage more men to be circumcised by offering free circumcision services in Nyanza Province. Researchers say circumcision reduces the risk of HIV infection among men. Traditionally, the Luo community does not practise circumcision, unlike some other Kenyan communities. About 2.5 million of 32 million Kenyans are currently living with HIV/AIDS. (BBC)

Liberia

Five years after the peace agreement that ended its civil war, Liberia has made accelerated progress on several human rights issues, but there are still serious concerns about the rule of law. “The installations of a new democratically elected government which took office in January 2006 has witnessed the acceleration of progress on a number of human rights and development issues including economic and social rights," Charlotte Abaka, the UN Independent Expert on the Situation of Human Rights, Technical Cooperation and Advisory Services in Liberia, said in a statement released July 18.

Sierra Leone

Sierra Leone's President Ernest Bai Koroma has said he will prevent the country becoming a key transit point for the international drugs trade. His comments follow the seizure by police of a plane loaded with cocaine at an airport outside the capital. The plane, which was abandoned on the runway, was carrying a 600 kg cargo, worth an estimated USD 54 million. Latin American drugs cartels are using West Africa as a transit point to smuggle cocaine to Europe, the UN says. But with help from the UN, the cabinet has approved tougher laws on narcotics that are expected to be taken to parliament this week. (BBC)

Somalia

Islamist insurgents in Somalia have launched what appears to be a targeted campaign of violence against foreign aid workers, pushing the already war-torn nation toward a full-scale famine, UN officials and observers warn. The warnings come amid fresh violence that has left many civilians dead in Mogadishu, the central battleground between the Western-backed government and armed Islamist militias. The Islamist insurgents have long attacked foreigners working inside Somalia. But the recent spate of violence suggests the attacks have now coalesced into a deliberate terror campaign, The International Herald Tribune reports. (CS Monitor)

South Africa

South African police have forcefully removed hundreds of immigrants from temporary shelters where they had taken refuge from xenophobic attacks.

Sudan

President Omar Hassan al-Bashir, in a show of defiance, made his first visit to Darfur on July 23 since the International Criminal Court prosecutor accused him of genocide and war crimes and sought his arrest. Dancing to traditional music and chanting Islamic slogans, Bashir addressed thousands of Darfuris in the regional capital el-Fasher, his promises of development and peace drawing cheers from onlookers who surged forward to get closer to him. Promising more schools, universities, water projects and roads, Bashir said Darfur would also soon be connected to the national electricity grid, ending constant problems with power blackouts.

Tanzania

Twenty-five people with albinism have been murdered in Tanzania since March, a BBC investigation has found. Albinos are targeted for body parts that are used in witchcraft, and killings continue despite government efforts to stamp out the grisly practice, the BBC's Karen Allen says. Winifrida Rutahiro (2nd left) says she is now scared even to leave her house. Once, albinos used to seek shelter from the sun. Now they have gone into hiding simply to survive, after a series of killings linked to witchcraft. In Tanzania, 25 albinos have been killed in the past year. (BBC)

Zimbabwe

The rival claimants to victory in Zimbabwe's widely criticized presidential elections - Robert Mugabe and Morgan Tsvangirai - have agreed to immediately begin intensive talks aimed at establishing a "new government." At their first meeting in more than a decade, Zimbabwe's president and the leader of the opposition Movement for Democratic Change yesterday signed a five-page "memorandum of understanding" that envisages a fortnight of secret talks by representatives dealing with an array of issues from political violence against the opposition to constitutional reform.
