      • "content": "O Tribunal da Comarca da Praia condenou a 10 anos e seis meses de prisão um indivíduo acusado de assaltar o turista austríaco Fred com recurso a dois cães da raça pitbull, na cidade da Praia, em Dezembro de 2023. Sakay, como é conhecido, volta assim à Cadeia Central da Praia, onde já cumpriu outras penas por vários crimes, incluindo tráfico de droga e receptação. O crime ocorreu no bairro da Várzea, durante a quadra natalícia, altura em que o cidadão austríaco se encontrava no país para visitar amigos e celebrar o Natal e o fim do ano. Segundo relatou a vítima, o assalto foi violento: Fred foi esfaqueado na zona do quadril e ameaçado com dois cães da raça pitbull, tendo-lhe sido roubados cerca de 800 contos e um telemóvel onde guardava ficheiros importantes. De acordo com o testemunho da amiga Evandra Semedo, o turista tinha ido ao Platô trocar dinheiro acompanhado de um conhecido, Hélio, e mais tarde deslocou-se à casa deste último. Terá sido nesse momento que, ao recusar entregar mais dinheiro a um indivíduo identificado como Sakay, foi brutalmente agredido. “Ele disse que o Hélio pediu 2.000 escudos e saiu, e o dono da casa onde estavam, o Sakay, pediu o dinheiro e ele não deu. Então o Sakay deu-lhe uma facada no quadril, apagou a luz, colocou dois pitbulls e levaram os seus 800 contos”, contou Evandra. “As pessoas que ouviram os gritos começaram a chutar a porta. Eles foram para a rua, colocaram-no num táxi e ele foi para o hospital sozinho. O Hélio chegou depois, de mota, e encontrou-o já no hospital”. O turista foi assistido no Hospital Agostinho Neto, onde também apresentou queixa formal junto das autoridades. Apesar da gravidade do crime, o caso não foi incluído no balanço da Polícia Nacional sobre a criminalidade durante a quadra festiva, o que gerou críticas por parte da vítima e de amigos. Fred afirma que escapou por pouco à morte. “Gritei ‘ajudem-me, ajudem-me’, chamei pelo meu amigo. Eu acredito que se demorasse mais cinco minutos teria morrido”, relatou. As investigações conduzidas pela Polícia Judiciária permitiram identificar dois suspeitos, entre os quais Sakay, agora condenado. O segundo arguido acabou por escapar à condenação, mas foi arrolado como testemunha no processo. A audiência de julgamento ocorreu em Abril passado no Tribunal da Comarca da Praia e a sentença foi comunicada na segunda-feira, 05 de Maio. O seu endereço de email não será publicado.

      • "content": "Por: Irina de Melo Lopes* Prezados militantes do PAICV e sociedade civil, Venho, por este meio, reconhecer com serenidade que a minha colaboração técnica já não é considerada necessária pelo partido, e por isso deixarei de prestar o apoio que vinha oferecendo de forma voluntária. Desde o início, a minha única motivação foi contribuir com o meu conhecimento para fortalecer o nosso partido, promovendo maior organização, transparência e rigor nos processos internos. A minha atuação pautou-se sempre por princípios éticos e profissionais. Nunca fiz parte de nenhum órgão dirigente e, mesmo assim, disponibilizei o meu tempo, o meu saber e os meus meios pessoais para garantir, entre outros aspetos, uma gestão funcional da base de dados, o funcionamento do website, a organização técnica do processo eleitoral, incluindo a geração dos cadernos eleitorais e o apoio à recolha e disponibilização de resultados em tempo real — um marco que visava reforçar a credibilidade do PAICV. Gostaria também de lembrar que, durante o processo de validação das candidaturas, e com espírito de camaradagem e interajuda, coloquei-me à disposição de todas as candidaturas, assim como do CNJF, oferecendo o meu apoio técnico e dedicando o meu tempo para garantir que o processo decorresse com transparência, rigor e dentro dos prazos. Muito do que foi alcançado nesse momento espelha o meu trabalho — e, curiosamente, naquela altura, a minha integridade e imparcialidade não foram colocadas em causa. Hoje, lamento ver esses mesmos valores a serem postos em causa, quando sempre os pautei com clareza e consistência em todas as fases do processo. Ademais, por não ter qualquer interesse pessoal, direto ou indireto, na continuidade de um apoio que, claramente, já não é desejado, nunca senti necessidade de responder à contestação apresentada, nem aos diversos ataques pessoais feitos nas redes sociais ao longo deste processo. Optei sempre por continuar a trabalhar com serenidade, ética e sentido de responsabilidade, mantendo o foco na contribuição que me propus dar, de forma voluntária, desinteressada e com espírito de serviço, sem qualquer expectativa de reconhecimento ou retorno. Estando integrada num espaço partidário, não considero necessário justificar a minha imparcialidade ou a minha ética — esses valores fazem parte da minha conduta pessoal e profissional. O que é dado de forma voluntária deve ser recebido com respeito, mas nunca exigido ou condicionado à aceitação alheia. É importante esclarecer que todas as falhas relacionadas com omissões, registos de pessoas falecidas, duplicações ou incongruências na base de dados são da inteira responsabilidade das estruturas setoriais. A atualização e validação dos dados dos militantes é um dever exclusivo dessas estruturas, que, apesar das repetidas solicitações e tentativas de colaboração da minha parte, não responderam de forma assertiva, coordenada ou tempestiva. Acresce que, não conhecendo pessoalmente os militantes, nunca me foi possível — nem seria apropriado — assumir a responsabilidade de determinar quem está ativo, inativo, falecido ou vinculado a outro partido. Inclusive na clarificação de casos de duplicações entre zonas, a falta de comunicação entre as estruturas impediu soluções efetivas. A componente técnica que me competia foi sempre assegurada com rigor; as falhas existentes decorrem unicamente da ausência de ação das estruturas locais. Com o meu afastamento, e tendo em conta que o partido não considera mais necessária a minha colaboração, deixarei também de prestar qualquer apoio técnico em outras frentes, por uma questão de coerência e respeito mútuo. Naturalmente, e como sempre foi meu hábito, irei partilhar todas as credenciais e acessos que ainda detenho, assegurando uma transição tranquila e responsável, de forma a evitar eventuais interrupções ou perdas de acesso, como já ocorreu no passado. Desejo sinceramente que o partido consiga manter os padrões de transparência e eficácia necessários à realização dos próximos processos eleitorais, que os dirigentes agora responsáveis consigam assegurar eleições justas, com cadernos eleitorais corretamente elaborados e validados, e que se consigam alcançar os resultados que outrora se obtiveram com o apoio técnico que deixo de prestar. Aproveito para apelar a todos os militantes que assumam um papel ativo de fiscalização no dia das eleições — é dever de cada um zelar para que o processo decorra de forma íntegra, digna e transparente, à altura dos valores que o nosso partido defende.

      • "content": "Por: Francisco Fragoso* Estava na enfermaria de Cirurgia no Hospital Central da Praia, no fim de mais uma manhã de labor médico, visitando tranquilamente os meus pacientes quando me avisam da Secretaria do Hospital que o Dr. Lisboa Ramos (então Delegado de Saúde da Praia), precisava falar comigo acerca de um telefonema que havia recebido naquele momento oriundo de um enfermeiro a bordo de um barco grego que estava de passagem ao largo do Porto da Praia. Fui atender o telefonema do Dr. Lisboa Ramos que me relatou que havia recebido um telefonema da parte de um enfermeiro que lhe perguntou se seria possível tratar um marinheiro que estava com um quadro de apendicite aguda e que o Porto da Praia era o Porto mais perto, por isso, caso fosse possível o paciente fosse tratado aí no Hospital da Praia seria muito bom mesmo ao que ele Lisboa Ramos disse que sim, por isso pudesse aportar o Porto da Praia para que o paciente pudesse ser tratado, em tempo útil e oportuno. Falei de imediato com todos os elementos da minha equipa para estarem prevenidos do facto. Dei instruções a Enfermeira Chefe da Unidade, a Irmã Ângela para preparar o doente logo a sua chegada a Unidade e me chamar para o examinar no sentido de confirmar ou infirmar o diagnóstico avançado pelo enfermeiro e proceder em conformidade e, sem perda de tempo. O paciente assim que chegou foi conduzido a Unidade, deitado numa cama já preparada e a Irmã e as suas colegas preparam-no de acordo com as normas do serviço para situações afins e veio me chamar para o examinar de modo adequado, visando a eventual intervenção cirúrgica indicada. Ao entrar na Enfermaria acompanhado da Irmã Ângela: eis que o jovem enfermo (18 anos de idade), disse claramente: “Ser operado por um preto” não é questão! Nem pensar! Prefiro morrer!” Saí tranquilamente da Enfermaria e falei com a minha equipa, explicando adequadamente a situação e terminei a minha explicação dizendo o mal é que dentro de seis horas o apêndice infetado vai rebentar, com certeza e nesta altura, a dor abdominal (Tipo “punhalada”) vai obrigá-lo a decidir com certeza que quer ser operado por um preto, tendo em conta a dor abdominal e o choque infecioso. Só que isto vai acontecer em plena alta noite! ... Assim foi! Às 3 horas da amadrugada, num insano berreiro acordou a todos da enfermaria, pedindo socorro, pois tal era a dor! Eis porque em vez de poder tratar uma apendicite aguda, em tempo oportuno fomos confrontados com uma Peritonite! Assim foi: operámo-lo e por isso em vez de uma semana de hospitalização acabou por estar um mês com drenos e terapêutica com antibiótico, etc. Etc. Enfim! Enfim! Malhas que mais uma vez teceu o racismo! Isto serviu-lhe de lição, pois no convívio com os outros pacientes cabo-verdianos e o pessoal de enfermagem cabo-cabo-verdiano tornou-se um jovem de bom trato e por que não o asseverar: o racismo curou-se e bem! Muito bem mesmo! BROCKTON/BOSTON Abril 2025 O seu endereço de email não será publicado.

      • "content": "Chad's former prime minister and opposition leader, Succès Masra, has been arrested over alleged links to clashes which took place on Wednesday in the south west of the country, a public prosecutor has said. He is suspected of spreading hateful messages on social media linked to the violence in which at least 42 people died, Oumar Mahamat Kedelaye said. Masra's Transformers party said he had been \"kidnapped\" by military officers in the early hours of the morning\" and denounced his detention, which it says was \"carried out outside of any known judicial procedure\". The government has not yet commented on Masra's arrest. Masra is a fierce critic of President Mahamat Déby and claimed to have defeated him in elections last year. Masra said his victory had been stolen \"from the people\" although the official results said Déby had won with 61% of the vote. Wednesday's clashes broke out in the village of Mandakao, in Logone Occidental province near the Cameroonian border. \"Messages were circulated, notably on social networks, calling on the population to arm themselves against other citizens,\" Mr Kedelaye said. It is not entirely clear what caused the violence, but one source told the AFP news agency that it is believed it was triggered by a land dispute between farmers from the Ngambaye community and Fulani herdsmen. There has been a troubling recent pattern of violence between local farmers and herders, with the farmers accusing the latter of grazing animals on their land. More than 80 others have also been detained in connection with the clashes. Masra briefly served as interim prime minister of the transitional government between January and May 2024. His party boycotted legislative polls last December due to concerns over the transparency of the electoral process. The Déby family has ruled Chad for more than three decades. The military installed Déby as Chad's leader after his father, Idriss Déby Itno, was killed by rebels in 2021.

      • "description": "Hace cincuenta años, hacia el final de la guerra de Vietnam con la caída de Saigón en abril de 1975, Estados Unidos llevó a cabo la operación \"BabyLift\", evacuando en avión a más de 3.000 niños huérfanos mestizos (hijos de soldados estadounidenses en el país) en una controvertida acción humanitaria sobre la que quedan preguntas sin resolver.",
      • "content": "Con información de Chi Phuong , periodista de la redacción vietnamita de RFI En una conferencia de prensa en San Diego el 3 de abril de 1975, el presidente estadounidense Gerald R. Ford declaró: \"estamos presenciando una tremenda tragedia humanitaria con la huida de innumerables vietnamitas de la ofensiva norvietnamita. He solicitado a los funcionarios estadounidenses en Saigón que actúen con urgencia para reducir los trámites burocráticos que dificultan el traslado de estos niños a Estados Unidos\", según el archivo de la Biblioteca Presidencial Gerald R. Ford. El presidente estadounidense anunció la movilización de 2.000 millones de dólares en fondos de ayuda exterior para \"llevar a miles de niños a un lugar seguro en Estados Unidos y otros países\". El anuncio se produjo semanas antes de que la ciudad fuera tomada por los comunistas, tras una serie de rumores que circulaban en Saigón que decían que los niños nacidos de madres vietnamitas y padres estadounidenses serían \"masacrados\" y \"violados\" por los comunistas. Los rumores rumor alimentaron aún más el temor a represalias contra cualquier simpatizante del ejército estadounidense y el régimen de la República de Vietnam, que tendrían como primer objetivo las personas mestizas, consideradas “hijos del enemigo”. También se rumoreaba que los orfanatos católicos, a menudo apoyados por organizaciones estadounidenses e internacionales, serían atacados, y que las fuerzas comunistas reclutarían huérfanos como escudos humanos o como soldados. Del miedo y el llanto... Menos de 48 horas después de las declaraciones de Ford y con el apoyo de la Embajada de Estados Unidos en Saigón, así como de numerosas organizaciones humanitarias y voluntarios, el primer vuelo de la campaña \"BabyLift\" despegó el 4 de abril de 1975 desde el aeropuerto de Tan Son Nhat. Se trataba de un avión Lockheed C5 Galaxy, con más de 300 personas a bordo, en su mayoría niños y tripulación. En ese momento, el ambiente era caótico en Saigón. Aquel desorden, aquella confusión siguen todavía muy presentes en la mente de Phillip R. Wise, entonces enfermero militar de 23 años de edad a cargo de la sección médica de aviación de la Fuerza Aérea estadounidense en una base en Filipinas, asignada a Saigón: “recuerdo oír disparos en la parte de atrás y poder sentir el miedo en las voces y el llanto”. Colocamos a los niños, desde los recién nacidos a los de 3 años, en el compartimento de las tropas, dos por asiento, con una almohada entre ellos y los cinturones de seguridad. Había 80 asientos. Y los niños mayores y los voluntarios estaban abajo en la bodega, con nosotros. ...a la tragedia del Galaxy C5 Apenas 10 minutes después del despegue, debido a un fallo técnico, la puerta trasera del avión se desprendió del fuselaje en pleno vuelo, a más de 7.500 metros de altitud. \"Dada la rápida descompresión rápida, en la parte de abajo no nos quedaba oxígeno para respirar, pero en el piso de arriba, sí. La tripulación pudo usar tanques de oxígeno para oxigenarse a sí misma y luego a los niños. Nos sujetamos con los niños a las cajas de carga. El piloto intentó regresar al aeropuerto, pero el sistema hidráulico falló y el avión se estrelló en un arrozal\". Murieron más de 130 personas, incluidas 44 mujeres voluntarias y 78 niños. Tras esta tragedia, otras aerolíneas como Pan Am, World Airways, United o Flying Tiger Line continuaron con la misión. La operación \"BabyLift\" finalizó el 26 de abril de 1975, evacuando a más de 3.000 niños. Alrededor de 2.000 fueron adoptados en Estados Unidos y 1.300 niños en otros países como Francia, Canadá, Australia, Alemania o Bélgica. Interrogantes sobre sus orígenes Cincuenta años después, aquellos niños viven en diferentes países y arrastras aún preguntas sin respuesta sobre sus orígenes. Devaki Murch fue una de las afortunadas que sobrevivieron al Galaxy C5 ese año y fue adoptada por una familia en Estados Unidos. En el momento del vuelo, tenía sólo 9 meses y esos breves recuerdos se perdieron en su inconsciente, pero dejaron una marca que la llevó a investigar sobre los acontecimientos de 1975 y también sobre sí misma. \"Mi historia se ha contado a través de los medios de comunicación, pero de forma bastante limitada, o en libros y documentales. La mayoría de los relatos que conozco sobre el accidente aéreo se deben al piloto, Bud Traynor. Y los documentos sobre mí son los registros de la organización 'Amigos para Todos los Niños', que se encarga de evacuar a los niños de Vietnam del Sur y registrar la información de cada uno. A menudo solo incluyen sus nombres en listas\", afirmó en una entrevista a RFI. \"Siempre supe que mi madre era vietnamita y mi padre negro. Mi madre debía de ser prostituta o algo así, y por eso me abandonó. Nunca creí esa historia de amor en la que mis padres se abrazaron y murieron entre las bombas. Pero, siendo honesta, desconozco la historia de mi familia\", confesó. Sin embargo, su familia acudió a ella. Después de convencerla de hacerse una prueba de ADN, una media hermana en Estados Unidos la contactó y fue a conocerla. Y si encuentras a tus padres biológicos, ¿entonces qué? Ésta es la pregunta que mucha gente se hace. Isabelle tiene miedo, ya que piensa que podría enfrentarse al rechazo y la desaprobación, como ha visto en algunos documentales. Por su parte, Stéphanie Racine, otra adoptada en Francia con menos de un año de edad, también se ha hecho una prueba de ADN, forma parte de varios grupos \"BabyLift\" en Facebook y ha entrado en contacto con muchas personas en la misma situación. En la cocina de un apartamento en Narbona, en el sur de Francia, Isabelle cocina con Sandie Quercy, también superviviente del accidente del Galaxy C5. Sandie le contó a Isabelle las indescriptibles emociones de su viaje a Vietnam a principios de abril, con Stéphanie y otros “BabyLifts”, al lugar conmemorativo del accidente aéreo de hace 50 años. Unidos por el fatídico accidente, comparten sus experiencias de vida, el racismo al que se enfrentan y las críticas que a veces han recibido por tener unos nombres “muy franceses” y haber sido criadas por familias blancas. BabyLift: Salvados o secuestrados, una controvertida campaña humanitaria A diferencia de Stéphanie e Isabelle, Sandie lleva más de dos décadas intentando encontrar a su familia. Cuando se convirtió en madre por primera vez a los 23 años, se preguntó: ¿cómo puede una madre abandonar a su hijo? Tiene que haber una buena razón. Y quiso saber el porqué. Para encontrar la respuesta, Sandie ha regresado a Vietnam muchas veces durante los últimos 20 años. \"Encontré una niñera que me cuidó durante unos meses, y un día me dijo: \"cuando estaba con los responsables de las asociaciones de adopción, sabíamos que si íbamos a ver a tal o cual señora, a cambio de unos cientos de dólares, nos daban bebés\". ¡No se aleja mucho del tráfico de niños!\" Las pruebas de ADN muestran que Sandie es 99 % vietnamita, no mestiza. Durante su búsqueda, conoció a otras personas en la misma situación, lo que la hizo preguntarse si realmente había sido abandonada o si, dados los rumores sobre los \"comunistas salvajes\" que mataban gente, su madre la envió a alguna organización pensando que era segura y, cuando regresó a por ella, había desaparecido. La última vez que volvió a Vietnam conoció a dos familias que buscaban a sus hijos, a través del canal de Youtube de Tuan Vy. La prueba de ADN dio negativo, pero la historia de una de las madres la conmovió: “me explicó que su hijo estaba enfermo y tuvo que dejarlo en una casa de maternidad. El padre estaba en la guerra, así que era difícil de gestionar, y les pidió a las monjas católicas que lo cuidaran. Una vez, las monjas les solicitaron el certificado de nacimiento y, aunque no entendía por qué lo necesitaban, lo hizo. Cuando regresó semanas después, descubrió que su hijo había sido subido al avión que se había estrellado. Fue aterrador, porque en ningún momento nadie le dijo que su hijo iba a ser dado en adopción”. Aunque no son familia biológica, ambas decidieron \"reconocerse\" y ayudarse mutuamente a encontrar a sus familiares. Sandy también espera que las familias que han perdido a sus hijos se atrevan a hablar y encontrarlos porque, tal vez, sus hijos también los estén buscando. “Hicieron todo lo que pudieron” Además de Sandie, muchos niños que no son considerados huérfanos todavía tienen padres en Vietnam. Algunas familias con dificultades económicas envían solo temporalmente a sus hijos a esos orfanatos, y en ocasiones reciben “presiones”. En el documental Daughter from Danang, emitido por el canal estadounidense PBS, aparece una trabajadora social estadounidense intentando convencer a las madres vietnamitas de que les enviaran a sus hijos, diciendo que era “la mejor manera para todos”. El 29 de abril de 1975, una enfermera vietnamita-estadounidense llamada Muoi McConnell presentó una demanda en el Tribunal Federal de San Francisco, exigiendo que se suspendieran los procedimientos de adopción de niños evacuados durante la operación \"Babylift\" hasta que se verificara su condición de huérfanos y sus padres y familiares dieran su consentimiento. Sin embargo, según la prensa estadounidense, el juez William Spencer Williams desestimó la demanda alegando que sólo se trataba de casos individuales. Adicionalmente, ordenó sellar los archivos y prohibió a los abogados comunicarse con las familias biológicas de los niños en Vietnam. Desde la perspectiva estadounidense, Devaki Murch promueve actividades de documentación en museos de Estados Unidos, así como reuniones entre personas involucradas en la campaña \"BabyLift\", para que la historia de los acontecimientos \"no se borre\". Además, gestiona un archivo sobre la campaña (operationbabylift.org). Aunque ella no intenta encontrar a su familia, apoya a quienes tratan de buscar y comprender sus raíces, mostrando una postura más comprensiva. \"Hay que recordar el contexto, y es que los niños estaban sujetos a la guerra, al caos. Muchos documentos muestran que estos niños habían sido abandonados por sus familias. Pero no quedan muchos documentos. Quienes estaban allí hicieron todo lo que pudieron para cuidarnos y mantenernos con vida\".",

      • "content": "Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo says it feels \"crazy\" to have been nominated for the Premier League's player of the season award. The 25-year-old Cameroon international has scored 18 goals and provided seven assists in 36 league outings for the Bees, who are chasing a place in European competition for the first time. \"I didn't really expect it,\" Mbeumo told BBC Sport Africa. \"I know I have [had] a good season, but I was surprised when I've seen my name there.\" Mbeumo is one of eight players on the shortlist for the award, with Liverpool's Mohamed Salah, who leads the top flight scoring charts, chief among the other contenders. Salah's team-mates Virgil van Dijk and Ryan Gravenberch, Nottingham Forest's Morgan Gibbs-White and Chris Wood, Newcastle striker Alexander Isak and Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice round off the list. Mbeumo joined Brentford from Troyes in August 2019 and has played a vital role in turning the west London club from a Championship side into contenders for a European spot. He has netted 40 Premier League goals in all, making him Brentford's second-highest goalscorer since promotion. \"This club bring me everything,\" Mbeumo said. \"They gave me confidence and I feel very happy to achieve this season here. With the group we have, it is just such a good life here. \"Players other than me could have deserved a nomination as well. That shows that the club is improving a lot.\" The Bees sit eighth in the table - a finish which could secure a place in the Europa Conference League next season - and boss Thomas Frank is in the running for the Premier League manager of the year award.",

      • "content": "Foi revelado o cartaz da 31.a edição do Festival da Gamboa, que acontece esta sexta-feira e sábado, 16 e 17. Mito, Indira, Neyna, Ferro Gaita, Paulinha, Miguel KR, Garry, Rahiz, Mário Lúcio e o nigeriano Victony, são alguns dos nomes que passarão pelo palco. Os bilhetes diários custam 200 escudos. De acordo com Jorge Garcia, vereador responsável pelos pelouros da Cultura e Comunicação, esta edição é “especial”, em homenagem aos heróis nacionais e decorre sob o lema “Pensar para agir e agir para poder pensar melhor”. O certame está integrado nas festividades dos 167 anos da capital e das comemorações dos 50 anos da Independência de Cabo Verde. No primeiro dia sobem ao palco da Gamboa Victony, artista nigeriano, Mário Lúcio, Indira, Cesar Sanches, Zé Grogu e Dibongo, Ferro Gaita, Paulinha, S.O.S Mucci, Hélio Batalha, Mito Kaskas e MC Acondize. Já no segundo dia atuam Miguel KR, Eneida Marta, artista da Guiné-Bissau, Bedja KP, Neyna, Apollo G, Garry, Rahiz, Dj Moana, do Brasil e Rods Wires. Segundo a organização, a edição deste ano é marcada por uma “forte aposta na valorização da música cabo- -verdiana, na projecção de talentos locais e na promoção da economia criativa”. Prioridade para artistas nacionais Segundo a organização o festival tem um orçamento de 30 mil contos, dos quais quase 13 mil foram destinados ao agenciamento dos artistas, “reflectindo o investimento na cultura nacional e internacional”. Yuka Barros, presidente da G84 Eventos, diz ser essencial “fazer presença da música que é de Cabo Verde”, sublinhando a prioridade dada aos artistas nacionais e no resgate de tradições culturais locais, integrando elementos das tabancas de Achada Grande, Achada Santo António e Várzea. “A Gamboa tem que reflectir a diversidade cultural de Cabo Verde, mas também manter uma dimensão internacional, como fizemos ao incluir artistas de países irmãos”, afirmou.

      • "content": "( MENAFN - Evertise Digital)Nature-focused retreat sees major upgrades to meet rising demand for eco-conscious accommodation in South Africa's KwaZulu-Natal region. SHONGWENI VALLEY, South Africa - A longtime boutique guesthouse in KwaZulu-Natal's Shongweni Valley has reemerged as a modern nature retreat following an extensive renovation in 2025. Treehouse River Lodge , originally established more than 15 years ago, now offers a refreshed option for travelers seeking peaceful, eco-conscious accommodation near Durban. Located along the banks of the Sterkspruit River and a short drive from the Shongweni Farmers Market, the upgraded lodge combines tranquil seclusion with convenient access to urban areas. Treehouse River Lodge now features four private chalets in three categories: two family-friendly self-catering river chalets, one couples' river chalet, and a budget garden-view chalet. Each unit includes an en-suite bathroom, daily housekeeping, and access to amenities such as secure parking, a rock pool, and a riverside Boma dining area. The property is approximately 15 minutes from Hillcrest and 45 minutes from central Durban. Founder and manager Susan Bakker said the renovation was inspired by a growing preference for small-scale, eco-conscious guesthouses in Durban 's surrounding areas.“We reimagined Treehouse River Lodge to give visitors a peaceful place to disconnect while staying connected to nature,” Bakker said.“We're not trying to be a resort. We're a riverside sanctuary designed for couples, families, and small groups who want meaningful rest.” The lodge has begun working with local partners, including Hillcrest-based Kemayu Spa & Aesthetics, to offer discounted wellness services to guests. While there is no full-service restaurant on site, breakfast can be arranged in the Boma area, and private dinners are available by prior booking. Bakker said she hopes the upgraded lodge will help bring greater visibility to Shongweni and its surroundings.“KwaZulu-Natal is full of hidden gems, and Shongweni is one of them. With Treehouse River Lodge, we aim to highlight this area's riverine ecology, artisanal markets, and its proximity to the city,” she said. The chalets are shaded by native trees and overlook the Sterkspruit River, where sightings of African clawless otters and fish eagles are possible. The property also attracts bird watchers, with the Western Barn Owl known to nest nearby. Treehouse River Lodge joins a growing number of small-scale B&Bs in Durban prioritizing personalized stays and sustainability over high-volume tourism models. It adds to the region's expanding list of guesthouses catering to travelers looking for meaningful, nature-based accommodation in South Africa . About Treehouse River Lodge Treehouse River Lodge is a family-run boutique guesthouse in Shongweni Valley, KwaZulu-Natal. First opened over 15 years ago, the lodge was renovated in 2025 to promote sustainable tourism through local partnerships and nature-based experiences.

      • "content": "( MENAFN - African Press Organization)LUANDA, Angola, May 16, 2025/APO Group/ -- “I thought I would not survive,” says Abel Kanivete, from Angola's Cuanza Sul province on the country's West coast.“There were so many people in the cholera treatment centre. I was afraid the nurses could not care for everyone, but they did, and I am alive because of them.” Kanivete is one of the more than 18 000 Angolans affected by the current cholera outbreak, declared in late January 2025. In coordination with the Ministry of Health and partners, World Health Organization (WHO) deployed a rapid response team to Cuanza Sul from 27 April to 5 May 2025. The team provided technical support to help control the outbreak and support affected communities in the province. During this time, WHO public health experts trained over 150 health workers and local health officials from across the province in cholera case management. WHO also provided technical support for the establishment and operation of cholera treatment centres. “Our work has helped health authorities to detect cases early, build local capacity and involve communities in prevention and response,” says Dr Kuku Muhao, WHO Emergency Officer in Angola.“Local officials have trained staff on the basic infrastructure needed to prevent new infections and move towards ending the cholera outbreak.” WHO's rapid response team also supported water safety and sanitation efforts. Water quality tests were conducted on the Cambongo River, the main water source in the region. Technicians from the Provincial Water Directorate received training in chlorine preparation and safe burial practices to break the chain of transmission and protect at-risk communities. Over 1470 people in the province, including volunteers, religious leaders, Red Cross members and health workers were trained to identify cholera symptoms and promote cholera prevention, such as washing hands and food and water preparation. In addition, 289 local leaders, including administrative, traditional, and religious and political representatives participated in awareness-raising activities to strengthen coordination across sectors. A community campaign entitled“One latrine per family” was launched to promote the construction and use of latrines as a key public health measure. Despite this progress, challenges remain. Many communities still lack access to safe clean water, and adequate sanitation. Reaching remote areas with essential services remains difficult in parts of Cuanza Sul and other provinces. Since the confirmation of the outbreak, cholera has spread to 17 of the country's 21 provinces. The outbreak has already caused almost 600 deaths, with a high case fatality rate of 3.2%, exceeding the 1% threshold which indicates early and adequate treatment of cholera patients. “The results of the WHO intervention are visible and encouraging. We have seen improvements in terms of technical capacity, community involvement and institutional coordination across the country. However, ongoing coordinated and sustainable action is needed. Strengthening international cooperation and support is urgent,” says Dr Indrajit Hazarika, WHO Representative in Angola.

Habari hizi zinakuja siku tano baada ya kuachiliwa kutoka jela kwa mke wa Ali Bongo, Sylva, na mwanawe, Noureddin, kulingana na vyanzo vya RFI.

      • "content": "Siku tano baada ya kuachiliwa kutoka jela kwa mke wa rais wa zamani Ali Bongo , Sylvia Bongo na mxanao Noureddin, Luanda imetangaza kuwa rais huyo aliyeondolewa madarakani Ali Bongo Ondimba na familia yake wametua Angola . Hatua hiyo inahitimisha miezi 19 ya kuzuiliwa huko Libreville, kufuatia mapinduzi ya Jenerali Brice Clotaire Oligui Nguema . \"Kufuatia jitihada za Rais wa Jamhuri ya Angola na Mwenyekiti wa sasa wa Umoja wa Afrika, João Lourenço, pamoja na Rais Brice Oligui Nguema wa Gabon , familia ya Bongo imeachiliwa na ndiyo imewasili Luanda,\" ofisi ya rais imetangaza kwenye mitandao ya kijamii, ikionyesha picha kuthibitisha habari hiyo. Kwenye picha hizo Ali Bongo, anaonekana akitabasamu akijikongoja kwa kutumia fimbo yake, akishuka kwenye ndege ya serikali ya Angola. Kulingana na chapisho la ofisi ya rais wa Angola, \"baada ya majadiliano kati ya João Lourenço na Brice Clotaire Oligui Nguema, familia ya Bongo iliachiliwa na ndiyo imewasili Luanda.\" Rais wa sasa wa Umoja wa Afrika, João Lourenço, alisafiri kwenda Libreville siku ya Jumatatu, Mei 12, kuthibitisha maridhiano yake na mwenzake wa Gabon, baada ya kipindi cha mpito ambapo mahusiano yalikuwa si mazuri. Lakini João Lourenço pia alichukua fursa ya ziara yake kukutana na Ali Bongo nyumbani kwake katika wilaya ya Sablière, ambako alikuwa amefungwa tangu kupinduliwa kwake Agosti 30, 2023. Swali la kesi ya Silvia na Noureddine Bongo Kabla ya ziara hii, Sylvia na Noureddin Bongo walikuwa wamechukuliwa kutoka chumba walikokuwa wanazuiliwa wiki iliyopita na kurudi kwenye makazi yao, hali ambayo ilichochea uvumi wa watu hao kwenda uhamishoni. Mamlaka haijazungumzia chochote kuhusu kubadilika kwa msimamo wake. Wala mawakili hawajazungumza chochote, lakini walikumbuka kuwa Aprili 30, Umoja wa Afrika uliomba tena kuachiliwa kwa Familia ya Bongo. Wakati wa mpito, mawakili wa Sylvia na Noureddine Bongo walilaani unyanyasaji huo na kuomba bila mafanikio kuhamishwa kwa wateja wao kwa ajili ya matibabu. Kabla ya kuchaguliwa kwake kuwa rais mapema mwezi Aprili, Brice Clotaire Oligui Nguema alisema kwamba kesi \"itafanyika.\" Kwani Sylvia na Noureddine Bongo wanashitakiwa kwa makosa kadhaa yakiwemo ubadhirifu wa fedha za umma na utakatishaji fedha. Katika taarifa yake kwa umma muda mfupi baada ya kuwasili Luanda, mwendesha mashtaka wa Gabon amesema kuwa Sylvia na Noureddin Bongo wameachiliwa huru wakisubiri kesi inayowakabili.",

      • "content": "( MENAFN - African Press Organization)GABORONE, Botswana, May 16, 2025/APO Group/ -- The African Development Bank ( ) has approved a $304 million loan to Botswana to support the southern African country in managing mounting fiscal challenges and implementing key governance and economic reforms. The funding, approved by the Bank Group's Board of Directors on Wednesday, will finance the Governance and Economic Resilience Support Programme (GERSP), a one-year general budget support operation covering the 2025/2026 fiscal year. The facility aims to cushion Botswana from the financial shock triggered by declining diamond revenues, while advancing critical reforms to enhance fiscal transparency, boost revenue collection, and promote private sector-led growth. Botswana's economy contracted by 1.7% in 2024, primarily due to weak global demand for diamonds, which account for approximately 80% of the country's exports. The country's fiscal deficit widened -- from a balanced budget in 2022/23 to 4.7% of GDP in the 2023/24 financial year–– and is projected to reach 6.7% in the current fiscal year. “This operation comes at a critical time for Botswana,\" said Moono Mupotola, Deputy Director General for Southern Africa and Country Manager at the African Development Bank Group. \"We will work with the new administration to implement reforms that will deepen fiscal sustainability, strengthen transparency, and create a more business-friendly environment for economic diversification.\" The GERSP is structured around two main pillars: Strengthening fiscal sustainability and transparency, and stimulating economic growth. It includes measures to increase domestic revenue mobilization, curb illicit financial flows, and enhance public expenditure efficiency and accountability. The program also targets support for micro, small, and medium enterprises, particularly those led by women and youth, to create jobs and reduce inequality. The operation is a transitional measure to address short-term budget pressures while engaging with Botswana's new government, elected in November 2024, on long-term development goals. “The African Development Bank is committed to supporting Botswana's ambitious socioeconomic development agenda through credible and transformational reforms, project and program financing, and continuous policy dialogue”, said Abdoulaye Coulibaly, the Bank's Director of Governance and Economic Reforms. The new loan builds on the Bank's prior support to Botswana, including the Economic Recovery Support Programme implemented in 2021-2022, which had $200 million cofinancing from the OPEC Fund for International Development. The current program aligns with the Bank's Country Strategy Paper for Botswana (2022-2026), which prioritizes building economic resilience through support for economic governance and private sector development.

      • "description": "South African teenager Khosi Dlomo wants to encourage others to take up her little-known equestrian sport of tent pegging.",
      • "content": "Riding on a galloping horse with a lance in her right hand, Khosi Dlomo's face is a picture of concentration as she sizes up her target. The South African teenager has little margin for error in her chosen sport of tent pegging. The equestrian discipline has military origins, with competitors riding down a track before attempting to remove a small wooden peg from the ground with either a lance or sword. \"When you get a peg, it gives me an adrenaline rush,\" Dlomo told BBC Sport Africa. \"The competitive nature gives me an energy boost.\" Carrying the peg away cleanly gives you six points, while striking it out of the ground secures four points and merely leaving a mark on the target gets two points. With a maximum of 192 points on offer over the course of 32 attempts - and the pegs decreasing in height from 60mm to 40mm between rounds - riders are also evaluated on their skills in the saddle. \"Tent pegging is a mind game,\" Dlomo said. \"When you get on the horse, you need to know what your job is in order to make sure you work together. \"You have to multitask, have very good horsemanship and know how to take care of yourself.\" As the only black female registered in tent pegging in sub-Saharan Africa, Dlomo's skills have taken her all the way to the sport's World Championships. She has also become an unlikely advocate for a sport she stumbled upon by chance as a six-year-old. \"It's an amazing honour and opportunity that I've been gifted with. But I also feel a bit of pressure and a responsibility.\" Tent pegging originated in medieval India, but was spread to South Africa by British cavalrymen during the Second Boer War between 1899 and 1902. Growing up in the suburbs of Durban, Dlomo's introduction to it came following a birthday party for a school friend. \"It was a horse riding party and then after I asked my mom 'Can I start horse riding?'.\" The coach she found, Dalene Baksa, was herself heavily involved in tent pegging. Yet Dlomo's mother did have some initial reservations over safety concerns about both riding and using either a lance or a sword to train. \"It takes a few months to get used to, but personally I wasn't really that scared of the weapons,\" Dlomo, now 19, said. \"I was quite a reckless kid. \"I'm just thankful that my parents were supportive and were willing to find something I was so passionate about. It didn't take a lot to win my mom over.\" Tent pegging remains a niche sport in South Africa - and one dominated by the white middle class. For Dlomo, the challenge is to appeal to a younger and more diverse audience. \"It's not publicised enough. Hardly anyone knows about it,\" she said. \"When I first came they weren't used to seeing a black rider. \"As the years went on I felt very welcomed and accepted. But I haven't seen any other black horse riders do tent pegging at competitions.\" Costs provide a major barrier to increasing participation. A spokesperson for the South African Equestrian Tentpegging Association estimated that the annual outlay required to keep a horse can be as much as 200,000 rand ($10,900, £8,250). Dlomo keeps three horses; Shadida, Baloo and Yogi, with Yogi her regular mount for domestic competitions. \"Horses are expensive to maintain [with] their food, their vehicles and the tack that goes on them,\" Dlomo said. \"Then on top of that you have to travel with them wherever the competition is, and entry fees for competing are expensive. \"My mom complains all the time - why didn't I pick tennis or something cheap?\" Dlomo, who is now based in Stellenbosch and studying viniculture at university, wants to use her platform to help grow the sport. \"Unfortunately I do feel tent pegging is in danger of extinction,\" she said. \"The number of riders at the SA Championships have been getting smaller and smaller, which is disheartening. \"I don't want to see it die out.\" Dlomo's career highlight so far has been competing at the 2024 World Championships in Jordan. While she is able to compete on her own horse, Yogi, in local competition, international rules state you must ride a different horse. \"That's what makes it a bit harder,\" Dlomo said. \"You don't have a connection with this horse, you don't know this horse. It's very clear to see when you don't have a connection. \"You're hanging off the side of a horse and need to trust this horse is stable. If you don't trust the animal it is not going to work out. I literally fell off.\" However, she managed to help the South African team to a fifth-placed finish in Jordan. As with some other equestrian events, tent pegging allows men and women to compete directly alongside one another, which Dlomo sees as empowering for females. The fact that mentality is more important than physical strength makes the sport more egalitarian. \"When teams are selected, they first do a women's team and a male team,\" she said. \"Then it comes to a merit team. You're saying 'Let's take our five best riders regardless of gender and age'. \"What I love about the sport is that you're not looking at my gender, you're looking at my capabilities as a rider and my horsemanship.\"",

      • "content": "Gabon's former President, Ali Bongo, who was deposed in a 2023 coup, has left the country and is now in Angola, the authorities there have announced. The Angolan presidency added in a statement posted on social media that Bongo's family had been released from detention and were with him in Luanda. Bongo's wife and son, Sylvia and Noureddin, faced corruption charges and had been imprisoned in 2023. They have not yet publicly commented on the charges, however Ms Bongo's lawyer has described her detention as arbitrary and illegal . The family's release comes after Angolan President João Lourenço, who currently heads the African Union, visited Libreville and held talks with his Gabonese counterpart Brice Oligui Nguema - the former general who led the coup against Bongo before being elected president last month. It remains unclear if the legal proceedings against Sylvia and Noureddin Bongo will continue. Ali Bongo, whose father Omar Bongo ruled Gabon for more than four decades, led the country for 14 years until the 2023 coup. After his toppling he was placed under house arrest where he reportedly remained, although Gabonese authorities say he was free to move about as he wished. His wife and son were detained in prison and then reportedly released to house arrest last week. Bongo has been vocal in condemning what he described as the \"violence and torture\" faced by his wife and son, although the authorities had denied subjecting the pair to cruel treatment. During their 14 years in power, the Bongo family had been accused of accumulating wealth for themselves at the expense of the country - allegations they deny. Despite Gabon being an oil-rich nation, a third of its population lives below the poverty line, according to the UN. Go to BBCAfrica.com for more news from the African continent.

      • "content": "( MENAFN - African Press Organization)CAPE TOWN, South Africa, May 16, 2025/APO Group/ -- The Chairperson of the Select Committee on Security and Justice, Ms Jane Mananiso, welcomed the long-term sentence, of eight life terms, for convicted rapist Mr Moses Gqesha. Mr Gqesha's charges included kidnapping, robbery with aggravating circumstances, assault with intent to do grievous bodily harm, theft, and multiple counts of rape to a gender-based violence activist, Ms Andisiwe Andy Kawa on 9 December 2010, at King's Beach in Summerstrand, Gqeberha. Mr Gqesha was arrested in 2020 for an unrelated incident and forensic evidence taken from Ms Kawa in 2010 linked him to the rape. “Firstly, we want to applaud the South African Police Services for safeguarding the forensic evidence taken from Ms Kawa in 2010, that linked the rapist later to these heinous crimes. It was because of this act that this criminal will not face years behind bars and pay for his crimes,” said Ms Mananiso. “Furthermore, we want to commend the National Prosecuting Authority for a successful prosecution especially because the accused denied the charges even after he was linked with forensic evidence. This is truly commendable. “In a country that experienced high rates of gender-based violence and femicide, this is a victory for those thousands of women either still struggling for justice and those who fear speaking up against perpetrators. This is a sign that the wheels of justice do indeed turn,” emphasized Ms Mananiso.

      • "content": "Colonel Ali Al-Jabri of the Security Directorates Support Agency was targeted while engaging with protesters in the capital Libya’s Security Directorates Support Agency (DSA) says it has foiled an assassination attempt against its deputy leader, Colonel Ali Al-Jabri, in a neighborhood of Tripoli which has witnessed days of unrest.The incident occurred on Wednesday night at the densely populated Abu Salim, where Al-Jabri had met with protesters to listen to their demands, the agency said in a statement published on Thursday.“While Al-Jabri was speaking with the demonstrators, some infiltrating criminals exploited the chaos and the lack of visibility caused by smoke from burning tires to attempt an assassination on Colonel Al-Jabri,” it stated.The DSA published a video on its official Facebook page showing bullet holes on the vehicle transporting the commander.The agency, which operates under the Ministry of Interior of the North African country’s internationally recognized Government of National Unity (GNU), has been tasked with securing Abu Salim following the latest wave of violence in the capital. Clashes erupted in Tripoli on Monday, with gunfire and explosions reported in several areas after the assassination of Abdulghani al-Kikli – widely known as Ghaniwa – who led the Stability Support Apparatus (SSA), a powerful militia group affiliated to the Tripoli-based GNU. He was reportedly shot dead in southern Tripoli on Monday. READ MORE: Intense fighting resumes in Libyan capital Libya has remained fragile since a NATO-backed uprising ousted former leader Muammar Gaddafi in 2011, leading to his execution. Rival factions control different parts of the once-prosperous African country, with rival governments in Tripoli and the city of Tobruk.On Tuesday, the Tripoli Defense Ministry said it had regained control of flashpoints, but fighting resumed hours later between government forces and fighters from the Special Deterrence Force (Rada). A ceasefire was later declared on Wednesday to “protect civilians, preserve state institutions, and avoid further escalation.” Read more Gaddafi warned them. Now the EU is living out his grim prophecy No official casualty figures have been released, but media reports suggest that at least six people have been killed in the armed clashes. The United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) warned the situation could spiral out of control, urging an immediate ceasefire and the creation of safe corridors for civilians in conflict zones.On Wednesday, the Russian Foreign Ministry announced that Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Bogdanov had met with Libyan ambassador to Moscow Mohammed Maghrawi to discuss a resolution to the crisis.",

      • "content": "TPLF iliongoza mapinduzi yaliyopindua serikali ya kimabavu ya Derg mwaka 1991 na kisha kutawala Ethiopia hadi mwaka 2018, wakati Waziri Mkuu Abiy Ahmed alichukua madaraka na kukiweka kando chama hicho. TPLF iliendesha vita vya kikatili vya wenyewe kwa wenyewe dhidi ya serikali ya shirikisho kutoka mwaka 2020 hadi mwaka 2022, ambayo iligharimu maisha ya watu wapatao 600,000. Katika barua kwa Umoja wa Afrika, TPLF imeitaka AU kuishinikiza serikali ya Ethiopia kusitisha utekelezaji wa marufuku hiyo. Kulingana na ripoti hiyo, uamuzi huu \"unainyima TPLF haki iliyokuwa imepata tena kutokana na makubaliano ya Pretoria na ni tishio kubwa kwa misingi ya mchakato wa amani.\" Ingawa mkataba wa amani uliotiwa saini mjini Pretoria ulimaliza vita mnamo mwezi wa Novemba 2022, eneo la Tigray limekatishwa tamaa na kutotekelezwa kwa masharti yake, ikiwa ni pamoja na kurejea kwa takriban watu milioni moja waliokimbia makazi yao kutokana na vita. Chama hicho kilichotawala siasa za Ethiopia kwa takriban miaka 30, kilifutiwa usajili rasmi siku ya Jumatano kwa kushindwa kufanya mkutano mkuu. Hatua hiyo inafuatia miezi kadhaa ya mivutano ya kisiasa katika eneo la kaskazini la Tigray na inakuja kabla ya uchaguzi uliopangwa kufanyika nchini Ethiopia kabla ya mwezi Juni 2026. TPLF ilikuwa tayari imesimamishwa kwa muda wa miezi mitatu mwezi Februari na kutishia kufutiwa usajili ikiwa haitachukua \"hatua za kurekebisha\" ndani ya miezi mitatu. Bado chama hiki kinaweza kutuma maombi ya kujiandikisha tena kwa uchaguzi wa mwaka 2026. Malumano ndani ya TPLF yalisababisha makabiliano mapema mwaka huu na kuondolewa kwa kiongozi wa mkoa Getachew Reda, ambaye amejiunga na serikali ya shirikisho. Uhusiano pia umezorota kati ya Ethiopia na Eritrea , nchi ambayo inashiriki mpaka mrefu na Tigray.",

      • "content": "Wanyama hao, ambao wanaweza kuwa na uzito wa hadi tani mbili, wataasafiri umbali wa kilomita 3,400 (maili 2,100) kufikia makazi yao mapya, Hifadhi ya Kitaifa ya Akagera. \"Tukio hili linaashiria hatua muhimu katika uhifadhi wa vifaru na ni ushahidi wa juhudi zetu za pamoja za kulinda na kusimamia kwa uendelevu Hifadhi ya Kitaifa ya Akagera,\" mamlaka ya mbuga hiyo imesema katika taarifa. \"Tukio hili linaashiria hatua muhimu katika uhifadhi wa vifaru na ni ushahidi wa juhudi zetu za pamoja za kulinda na kusimamia kwa uendelevu Hifadhi ya Kitaifa ya Akagera,\" mamlaka ya mbuga hiyo imesema katika taarifa. Walipokuwa wengi Kusini mwa Jangwa la Sahara, vifaru weupe waliteseka kwanza kutokana na kuwindwa na walowezi wa Ulaya na kisha kutokana na janga la ujangili ambalo kwa kiasi kikubwa liliwaangamiza. Kulingana na Shirika la Kimataifa la Faru (IRF), ujangili wa faru barani Afrika uliongezeka kwa 4% kati ya mwaka 2022 na 2023, na angalau 586 waliibiwa mnamo mwaka 2023. Faru mweupe wa kusini, mojawapo ya spishi ndogo mbili, sasa ameorodheshwa kama anakabiliwa \"na tishio,\" na takriban faru 17,000 wamesalia, kulingana na Muungano wa Kimataifa wa Uhifadhi wa Mazingira (IUCN). Faru mweupe wa kaskazini ametoweka, na kuwaacha wanawake wawili tu wakiwa hai. Wanasayansi wanajaribu kuokoa viumbe hao kutokana na kutoweka kwa kuchukua mayai kutoka kwa mnyama mdogo wa wanyama hao wawili, Fatu, na kutumia manii kutoka kwa madume wawili waliokufa kuunda viinitete katika mpango wa kuzaliana ambao haujawahi kushuhudiwa, nafasi ya mwisho ya spishi ndogo ya kuishi. Rwanda , ambayo inajiweka kama kivutio kikuu cha safari, ilipokea vifaru weupe 30 mnamo mwaka 2021 kwenye mbuga moja. Idadi ya vifaru weupe inaongezeka nchini Afrika Kusini licha ya ujangili, kulingana na IRF. Uhamisho huu unalenga kusaidia ukuaji wa vifaru na kupata ngome mpya ya kuzaliana nchini Rwanda.",

      • "content": "Com apenas 22 anos, o futebolista José Tavares, natural de Calheta de São Miguel, é exemplo de como a paixão e o talento podem transformar em realidade. Desde cedo, foi influenciado pela “tradição familiar” no futebol. “Na minha casa, todo mundo tinha esse vício. Cresci vendo isso e acabei me apaixonando também”, lembra ele sobre os primeiros passos no desporto. Um dos momentos mais marcantes da carreira de José Tavares foi ajudar a equipa do ADEC, na Calheta, a alcançar a primeira divisão no seu primeiro ano como sénior. A jornada de José Tavares, no entanto, não se limitou às fronteiras de Cabo Verde. Emigrado em Portugal, iniciou a carreira na equipa do Alverca, chamando pelo seu desempenho a atenção do Santa Clara, que o recrutou. Motivado pelo desejo de chegar ao mais alto nível e de poder ajudar a família, José não se deixa abalar pelos obstáculos. “As oportunidades não devem ser esperadas, temos que ir atrás delas. Se não der certo hoje, não significa que devemos desistir. Continuem a tentar, porque a hora certa vai chegar”, aconselha aos jovens. Ao ser questionado sobre quem é o seu ídolo, ele não cita celebridades. Pelo contrário, olha para dentro de casa, para as suas raízes, e responde com orgulho: “Os meus maiores ídolos são os meus irmãos”.

      • "content": "US President Donald Trump has given members of South Africa's Afrikaner community refugee status, alleging that a genocide was taking place in the country. Nearly 60 of them have arrived in the US after being granted asylum. The South African government allowed the US embassy to consider their applications inside the country, and let the group board a chartered flight from the main international airport in Johannesburg - not scenes normally associated with refugees fleeing persecution. South African History Online sums up their identity by pointing out that \"the modern Afrikaner is descended mainly from Western Europeans who settled on the southern tip of Africa during the middle of the 17th Century\". A mixture of Dutch (34.8%), German (33.7%) and French (13.2%) settlers, they formed a \"unique cultural group\" which identified itself \"completely with African soil\", South African History Online noted . Their language, Afrikaans, is quite similar to Dutch. But as they planted their roots in Africa, Afrikaners, as well as other white communities, forced black people to leave their land. Afrikaners are also known as Boers, which actually means farmer, and the group is still closely associated with farming. In 1948, South Africa's Afrikaner-led government introduced apartheid, or apartness, taking racial segregation to a more extreme level. This included laws which banned marriages across racial lines, reserved many skilled and semi-skilled jobs for white people, and forced black people to live in what were called townships and homelands. They were also denied a decent education, with Afrikaner leader Hendrik Verwoerd infamously remarking in the 1950s that \"blacks should never be shown the greener pastures of education. They should know their station in life is to be hewers of wood and drawers of water\". Afrikaner dominance of South Africa ended in 1994, when black people were allowed to vote for the first time in a nationwide election, bringing Nelson Mandela and the African National Congress (ANC) to power. Afrikaners currently number more than 2.5 million out of a population of more than 60 million - about 4%. None of South Africa's political parties - including those that represent Afrikaners and the white community in general - have claimed that there is a genocide in South Africa. But such claims have been circulating among right-wing groups for many years and Trump also referred to a genocide during his first term. The claims stem from attacks on white farmers, or misleading information circulated online. In February, a South African judge dismissed the idea of a genocide as \"clearly imagined\" and \"not real\", when ruling in an inheritance case involving a wealthy benefactor's donation to white supremacist group Boerelegioen. South Africa does not release crime figures based on race but the latest figures revealed that 6,953 people were murdered in the country between October and December 2024. Of these, 12 were killed in farm attacks. Of the 12, one was a farmer, while five were farm dwellers and four were employees, who are likely to have been black. Defending his decision to give Afrikaners refugee status, Trump said that a \"genocide\" was taking place in South Africa, white farmers were being \"brutally killed\" and their \"land is being confiscated\". Trump said that he was not sure how he could attend the G20 summit of world leaders, due to be held in South Africa later this year, in such an environment. \"I don't know how we can go unless that situation's taken care of,\" he added. South Africa's President Cyril Ramaphosa has said it was \"completely false\" to claim that \"people of a certain race or culture are being targeted for persecution\". Referring to the first group who have moved to the US, he said: \"They are leaving because they don't want to embrace the changes that are taking place in our country and our constitution.\" The government denies that land is being confiscated from farmers, saying that a bill Ramaphosa signed into law in January was aimed at addressing the land dispossession that black people faced during white-minority rule. But the law has been condemned by the Democratic Alliance (DA), Ramaphosa's main coalition partner in government. The DA say it will challenge the law in South Africa's highest court, as it threatens property rights. Trump's close adviser Elon Musk, who was born in South Africa, has referred to the country's \"racist ownership laws\", alleging that his satellite internet service provider Starlink was \"not allowed to operate in South Africa simply because I'm not black\". To operate in South Africa, Starlink needs to obtain network and service licences, which both require 30% ownership by historically disadvantaged groups. This mainly refers to South Africa's majority black population, which was shut out of the economy during the racist system of apartheid. The Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (Icasa) - a regulatory body in the telecommunications and broadcasting sectors - told the BBC that Starlink had never submitted an application for a licence. Musk has also accused the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), the fourth-largest party in South Africa, of \"actively promoting\" a genocide through a song it sings at its rallies. EFF leader Julius Malema's trademark song is \"Shoot the Boer, Shoot the farmer\", which he sings at political rallies. Afrikaner lobby groups have tried to get the song banned, saying it was highly inflammatory and amounted to hate speech. However, South Africa's Supreme Court of Appeal has ruled that Malema is within his rights to sing the lyrics - first popularised during the anti-apartheid struggle - at political rallies. The court ruled that a \"reasonably well-informed person\" would understand that when \"protest songs are sung, even by politicians, the words are not meant to be understood literally, nor is the gesture of shooting to be understood as a call to arms or violence\". Instead, the song was a \"provocative way\" of advancing the EFF's political agenda - which was to end \"land and economic injustice\". Lobby group AfriForum filed an appeal against the ruling, but South Africa's highest court refused to hear the case, saying it had little chance of succeeding. In 2023, South Africa's former President Thabo Mbeki urged Malema to stop singing the song, saying it was no longer politically relevant as the anti-apartheid struggle was over. The ANC says it no longer sings it, but it cannot \"prescribe to other political parties what they must sing\". It doesn't look like it. In March, a business group said that close to 70,000 Afrikaners had expressed interest in moving to the US following Trump's offer - from an estimated population of 2.5 million. On Monday, the US embassy in South Africa released a statement clarifying the criteria for resettlement, saying it covered people from any racial minority, not just Afrikaners, who could cite an incident of past persecution or fear of persecution in the future. South Africa's most recent census, done in 2022, shows that Coloureds, (an officially used term meaning people of mixed racial origin) are the largest minority, making up 8% of the population. They are followed by white people, including Afrikaners, at 7%, and Asians at 3%. After Trump's offer, Afrikaner lobby group Solidarity posted an article on its website headlined: \"Ten historical reasons to stay in South Africa\". In parliament last week, the leader of the right-wing Freedom Front Plus party said they were committed to South Africa. \"We are bound to Africa and will build a future for ourselves and our children here,\" Corné Mulder said.

      • "content": "O Sindicato dos Trabalhadores do Comércio e Serviço, em conjunto com a Polícia Municipal da Praia, representado por Agilson Lopes, voltou a denunciar a precariedade das condições de trabalho da classe e exigiu da autarquia praiense armamento e segurança para a edição de 2025 do Festival da Gamboa, agendado para amanhã, 16 e sábado, 17. Caso as reivindicações não sejam atendidas, a classe diz que vai avançar “com novas formas de lutra”. Segundo Benito de Paula Gomes, presidente do Sindicato dos Trabalhadores do Comércio e Serviço (STCS), desde a transição da Guarda Municipal para a Polícia Municipal, ocorrida em junho de 2024 “nada mudou a não ser o fardamento e o título de Polícia Municipal”. Benito de Paula Gomes, presidente do Sindicato dos Trabalhadores do Comércio e Serviço (STCS) Benito diz que aguarda, há dois meses, por uma resposta da edilidade a uma missiva para agendamento de um encontro para discutir as reivindicações da classe. “Já enviamos vários e-mails, nenhum dos quais teve resposta e a classe sente-se muito desrespeitada”, salienta, afirmando inclusive que os agentes da Polícia Municipal têm sofrido bullying nas ruas, vindo de munícipes o que tem “gerado grandes conflitos com a população”. Segundo a mesma fonte, esse problema advém porque os agentes da Polícia Municipal continuam sem armamento e com poucos materiais de segurança, o que, conforme salientou, compromete tanto a segurança dos profissionais quanto da população. “No Sal e em São Vicente, onde o processo de criação da Polícia Municipal começou depois, já dispõe de armamento, pelo que não entendemos a apatia da Câmara Municipal da Praia em relação a essa situação”, questiona Benito. Uniforme fluorescente torna agentes “possíveis alvos” na Gamboa Como avança Benito, já foi destacado um contingente para ajudar no reforço da segurança no festival da Gamboa, contudo sem armamento e sem condições de segurança e com os uniformes novos fluorescentes, os agentes acabam por se tornar “potenciais alvos” em caso de desordem. Agilson Lopes, representante da Associação dos Agentes da Polícia Municipal da Praia Segundo Agilson Lopes, representante da Associação dos Agentes da Polícia Municipal da Praia, o facto da classe não poder garantir nem a sua própria segurança nem a dos munícipes, muito por falta de armamento, mexe com o “brio profissional” dos agentes, que “somente têm o título de agente de autoridade”. Agilson garante que a classe está preparada e tem formação especifica para ter armamento, estando neste momento só a aguardar a edilidade para resolver a questão “de uma vez por todas”. “Apelamos à Câmara Municipal que nos ouça, queremos discutir e resolver esta e outras questões que constam do nosso caderno de reivindicações. As condições de trabalho que temos são precárias, as instalações da Polícia Municipal são precárias, a frota de viaturas tem mais de 14 anos”, afirma. Segundo o mesmo, o armamento é uma reivindicação básica já que, como explica, o agente só pode garantir a segurança dos munícipes se ele próprio estiver seguro.
