00:00Let's start with Senegal, which has taken a significant step forward with the construction
00:17of its first electric submarine cable, an initiative aimed at strengthening access
00:22to energy.
00:23This is reported by Press Africa in its columns.
00:26This 16-kilometer project, funded by the US government, worth $200 million, will link
00:32Cap-de-Biche to Bel Air.
00:34Michael Reynolds, ambassador to the United States, stressed its positive impact on the
00:39local economy.
00:40This first high-voltage line, underground in West Africa, is essential to reduce
00:46the disparities in access to electricity.
00:48At the IRD Info, we learn that Central African President Faustin Arkanjtoa Dera met this
00:55week with his Ugandan counterpart, Yoweri Omoseveni.
00:58Discussions were held on the development support of the Central African Republic, with
01:02an emphasis on strategic projects in defense, energy and infrastructure.
01:08A commercial corridor from the RCA to Uganda via southern Sudan has been proposed to strengthen
01:15exchanges.
01:16And two leaders have also agreed to create a mixed commission to explore other areas

01:24And then in Kenya, AFRICANEWS is interested in the dismissal by the Parliament of Vice-President
01:29Rigathi Gachagoua, with 281 votes in favor and 44 against.
01:36The accusations made against him include his support for anti-government protests of
01:41June and allegations of corruption.
01:44Gachagoua firmly defended his innocence, calling the accusations unfounded and asking
01:49for a fair trial.
01:51This dismissal highlights growing tensions within the government, in particular between
01:56Gachagoua and President William Ruto.
01:58If confirmed by the Senate, Rigathi Gachagoua will become the first vice-president to be
02:06dismissed since 2010.
02:08In Ethiopia, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, for its part, announced the safe return of
02:1551 Ethiopian citizens stuck in Lebanon.
02:19These refugees are facing difficult conditions and the return is the result of continued efforts
02:24with partner organizations, informs APANews in these columns.
02:28According to Nebiat Gachagoua, the spokesman for the Ministry of Welfare of Ethiopians abroad
02:34remains a priority.
02:36At the same time, Ethiopian Airlines suspended all its flights to Beirut due to the security
02:41situation in the region.
02:43The Ethiopians constitute one of the largest groups of migrants in Lebanon, according to
02:47the International Organization for Migration, which is on the African Press Agency.
02:51Let's finish with the most recorded maliche.

03:09more than 47,000 households, making the situation all the more critical.

03:18disaster since the end of August.
03:20The rise of the waters of the Niger River exceeds warning signs, exacerbating the humanitarian
