The Speech that Made Obama President

\t On Friday, internet and international calls were cut off across the West African nation in anticipation of the election results, according to locals and international observers in the capital, Conakry.

\t This was the third time that Conde matched-up against Diallo. Before the election, observers raised concerns that an electoral dispute could reignite ethnic tensions between Guinea's largest ethnic groups.

As urban areas start to reopen, some are looking at their sidewalks, squares, parking lots and even streets as a hidden asset in

Public and outdoor space has been at a premium during the coronavirus pandemic: bike sales have leapt, park use is way up, and even pavement chalk drawing appears to be having a moment.

The city of Braga in northern Portugal has opened public squares, sidewalks, parks and more throughout the city to restaurants and local businesses seeking to reopen to customers while maintaining social distancing.

Even when he was allowed to reopen in early May, he could only do so at 25% capacity, including his staff - hardly a solution, Gigante said, until the Tampa mayor announced emergency policies allowing the new use of public space.

About 400 businesses have done so thus far, Simasius said, and as competitions arose, the city even had to come up with metrics for deciding which establishment would have access to which piece of public space.

For instance, Simasius said that while aspects of how the city permits outdoor use will go back to normal next year, the general aim of allowing more outdoor space and street closures will remain.

A Zambian couple jailed for homosexuality in 2019 were freed this week as part of an amnesty for convicted prisoners to mark Africa Freedom Day, a government gazette said.

Japhet Chataba, 39, and Steven Samba, 31, were both found guilty of \"performing unnatural acts\" and sentenced to 15 years in prison in November last year.

Their names were among the 2,984 prisoners pardoned by President Edgar Lungu as part of Africa Freedom Day celebrations on Monday.

The pair's conviction had sparked a diplomatic row with US ambassador to Zambia, Daniel Foote, who said he was \"horrified\" by the judgement.

Foote was accused of \"questioning the constitution\" and recalled to the US last December after Lungu declared him persona non grata.

Gambia’s renowned justice minister Abubacarr Tambadou, who established a probe to investigate abuses under the country’s ex-dictator and spearheaded the international defence of Myanmar’s Rohingya, has resigned, the government said Thursday.

Appointed justice minister in 2017, Tambadou was instrumental in setting up The Gambia’s Truth, Reconciliation and Reparations Commission, designed to investigate abuses committed under the country’s former dictator, Yahya Jammeh.

We didn't always agree with Tambadou, but he always listened to human rights advocates and especially to Yahya Jammeh's victims.

On Thursday, President Barrow’s office released a statement praising Tambadou’s “patriotic and selfless service” as justice minister, and for helping restore The Gambia’s international image.

“We didn’t always agree with Tambadou, but he always listened to human rights advocates and especially to Yahya Jammeh’s victims,” Brody said.

India and Bangladesh began a massive clean-up Thursday after the fiercest cyclone since 1999 killed at least 95 people, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake.

Cyclone Amphan flattened houses, uprooted trees, blew off roofs and toppled electricity pylons, while a storm surge inundated coastal villages and wrecked shrimp farms vital to the local economy.

Improved weather forecasting meant Bangladesh was able to move some 2.4 million people into shelters or out of the storm's direct path, while India evacuated some 650,000.

Bangladesh's Sundarbans forest chief Moyeen Uddin Khan told AFP the storm surge that smashed into the vast mangrove area -- which bore the brunt of the storm -- was \"not as high as was feared earlier\".

The area most affected by Amphan, the first \"super cyclone\" to form over the Bay of Bengal since 1999, was the Satkhira district of southwest Bangladesh.

War, violence and other humanitarian emergencies forced about 79.5 million people out of their homes in 2019—almost double the number of people displaced a decade ago—according to a report by United Nations High Commission for Refugees.

Of the nearly 80 million people cited in the report, 26 million are refugees; an estimated 20.4 million people are in areas served by UNHCR’s mandate; another 5.6 million people are Palestine refugees registered with the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East.

Speaking in Geneva on June 25, the UNHCR chief noted that although the issue of displacement affects all nations, data showed that it was poorer countries that hosted 85 per cent of those forced from their home.

Nearly seven out of 10 people of those displaced came from Syria, Venezuela, Afghanistan, South Sudan and Myanmar, the report added.

In the wake of the global crisis caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, the UN refugee agency has also reported an increase in the number of Rohingya refugees moving from Bangladesh and Myanmar, towards Malaysia and other States in South East Asia.

My prayer is that Professor Gambari would remain faithful to his core value of commitment to the nation of Nigeria and would do all in his power to promote more inclusive governance.

Professor Gambari is best known for his concentric circles approach to defending the national interest, with Nigeria being the inner circle projecting to West Africa, Africa and the rest of the world, with the core objective of always getting the best for the country.

I think the attempt by certain ethnic jingoists to paint Ibrahim Agboola Gambari with the Fulani \"cabalistic\" identity brush does great disservice to the country at this time where the expectation is that he would struggle for more inclusive governance in the national interest.
