00:00It is time for your African press release on the African pandemic that we are starting
00:12in Nigeria.
00:13The Alliance of States of the Sahel has announced the opening of its borders to the CDAO outposts.
00:19The President of the Confederation, General Assemigo Ita, has declared that the citizens
00:25of the CDAO can now circulate, reside and settle freely in the territories of the
00:32member states of the AES, in accordance with national legislation.
00:35According to the information site, this decision comes into play in a context marked by tensions
00:41between the CDAO and the member states of the AES, Mali, Burkina Faso and Nigeria,
00:47which recently reaffirmed their desire to leave the regional organization.
00:53The heads of state and government of the Economic Community of States of West Africa
00:58met in Abuja for their 66th regular summit.
01:01Daily news reports that several major issues were on the agenda,
01:06including the announced withdrawal of Mali, Burkina Faso and Nigeria,
01:09members of the CDAO, of the regional organization.
01:12These three countries, led by military tensions, decided to leave the CDAO on January 29,
01:18to join the Alliance of States of the Sahel.
01:21This departure, which concerns a region with a population of 72 million,
01:25could have significant economic repercussions.
01:29According to our colleagues, during this session,
01:31the leaders examined the annual reports on the state of the community,
01:35the activities of the Council of Mediation and Security, as well as those of the Council of Ministers.
01:40And then the Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda and Angola
01:44proceeded to mediate for the end of hostilities in eastern RDC.
01:49According to President Joao Lourenço,
01:53this mediation aims to achieve the signing of an agreement
01:57to put an end to hostilities in eastern RDC,
02:00or at least to a firm commitment
02:03to a disengagement of Rwandan armed forces from the Congolese territory.
02:07The mediation intervenes in a context of persistent violence in eastern RDC,
02:12where we observe conflicts between the armed forces of the Democratic Republic of Congo and the M23.
02:19This despite the efforts to stabilize the Monusco
02:22and the Congolese armed forces have the source of information.
02:26The Munusca organized a presentation session
02:29of the resolution 2759 of the Security Council of the United Nations,
02:33defining its new mandate.
02:35Information relayed by Bangui.com,
02:38this initiative aims to strengthen the understanding and support of Central African media
02:43for a better execution of peacekeeping missions.
02:47Fluctuating exchanges have made it possible to clarify the responsibilities of the Munusca
02:51and to meet the expectations of journalists.
02:53According to the communication director Jessica Muyungo,
02:57the purpose of this exercise is to explain to media professionals
03:02the mandate of the Munusca to obtain their support in its implementation.
03:06This is what Bangui.com concludes.
03:09To finish, let's go to Senegal, where the African press reports in its columns
03:13that the Minister of Justice and Guard of the Ousmadiagne
03:16announced the construction of nine new prisons,
03:19this to disengage the penitentiary system in Senegal.
03:23Among his projects, he cited the construction of a prison
03:26of 2,500 places in Diamniadio and another of 500 places in Fatik.
03:31According to the online newspaper, the minister also mentioned
03:34an increase in journalistic indebtedness to prisoners.
03:38So far, it has been fixed at 1,152 francs CFA per day and per detainee.
03:44In the case of the 2025 Finance Bill,
03:47this amount will be reported at 1,300 francs CFA, he said.
03:52It is on this element that we close this African press report.
