Image
UNITED NATIONS — Two human rights groups accused the U.N. Security Council on Tuesday of ignoring large-scale “ethnic cleansing” of Myanmar’s Rohingya Muslims who are fleeing across the border to Bangladesh. Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International representatives made the charge during a news conference held at U.N. headquarters ahead of closed council discussions Wednesday on the Myanmar crisis, saying they wanted to spotlight the failure of the U.N.’s most powerful body to demand an end to the violence being used by Myanmar to to chase out Rohingya. U.N. officials have said 370,000 Rohingyas have fled from Myanmar to Bangladesh since Aug. 25 and thousands more are arriving every day. Louis Charbonneau, the U.N. director for Human Rights Watch, said that “this is an international peace and security crisis,” with people dying and villages burning. He said there is no excuse for the Security Council “sitting on its hands.” “The situation in Myanmar’s northern Rakhine sta...

PRESIDENT MUGABE SAY"S ZIMBABWE CAN ONCE AGAIN FEED ITSELF

Image
Mugabe has previously acknowledged that handing vast tracts of land to inexperienced black owners was a mistake. Zimbabwe produced enough food to feed its people for the first time since adopting a controversial policy to strip land from white farmers, President Robert Mugabe told parliament on Tuesday. From the year 2000, hundreds of white farmers were evicted from their farms, often violently, and land was handed to allies of the ruling ZANU-PF party and in many cases became neglected and unproductive. Zimbabwe had previously been known as the "breadbasket" of Africa. "The country has this year succeeded in regaining its food self-sufficiency status on the back of the good rainy season and the introduction of command agriculture," Mugabe said as he opened parliament. "Government is now working to consolidate agriculture through, among other things, investing more resources in water harvesting and irrigation development." A bumper harvest of...

FORMER SENATOR AND MP DETAINED OVER HATE SPEECH IN VOLATILE KENYA

Image
Kenya has experienced turmoil after the victory of Uhuru Kenyatta in the recent elections and subsequent nullification of the results Kenyan police detained a ruling party lawmaker and a former opposition senator on Monday for alleged hate speech, as political tensions simmered following the Supreme Court’s decision to annul the presidential election. Both the candidates in that ballot, incumbent president Uhuru Kenyatta and veteran opposition leader Raila Odinga, also ratcheted up the temperature in public speeches on Monday and the opposition said it would boycott the opening of parliament. Politics in Kenya often follow ethnic lines and has in the past erupted into deadly violence, making the authorities sensitive to perceived inflammatory statements. Reported instances of hate speech have risen sharply since the surprise ruling on Sept. 1, the first of its kind in Africa, when the Supreme Court voided Kenyatta’s re-election citing irregularities in the tallying process. ...

A 55-year-old woman from Lady Frere in the Eastern Cape who rescued her daughter from three alleged rapists, says she still can't believe that one of them is a relative. The woman allegedly killed one of her 27-year-old daughter's alleged rapists and wounded two others.   The incident happened a week ago.

They rape and kill, but they still live among us.” Meanwhile, the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) says it will charge the Eastern Cape woman for murder. ...
