The entire Noir family are sending their deepest condolences to the family of Daniel Anjorin. A young boy of Nigerian descent studying in the UK who was tragically murdered by the terrorist rampage of Marcus Monzo. Daniel was only 14 and had his whole life ahead of him. Marcus was a crash dummy who went on a violent rampage with a sword, attacking multiple victims including Daniel. Daniel’s mother paid so much to afford Daniel to attend the prestigious Bancroft school to get the best education only for his life to be tragically cut short. Daniel was described as a loving boy who brought his family lots of joy, cherished by his family and adored by friends and teachers alike. Monzo was taken into custody shortly after the heinous attacks but not before severely injuring four responding officers. . . . . . #explore #explorepage #instagood #keepwinning #positiveenergy #tiktok #bmf #mma #adoption #happy #zen #positivevibes #funny #funnyvideos #uk #tbt #grwm #hiphop #rap #news #travel #city #nigeria #naija #afrobeats #bbcnews #africanews #clubshayshay #theshaderoom #bbc
Turkish President Erdogan stated that the borders of Western democracies are defined by Israel's interests. He also suggested that actions perceived as contrary to Israel's interests are labeled as anti-democratic and anti-Semitic. In this statement, Erdogan appears to critique the influence of Israel on the policies of Western democracies, implying that decisions are sometimes made in favor of Israeli interests over broader democratic principles. By linking opposition to Israel's interests with accusations of anti-Semitism and anti-democracy, Erdogan highlights what he sees as a problematic alignment between certain Western nations and Israel. This commentary reflects Erdogan's perspective on geopolitics and his stance on Israel's influence on global affairs. #turkish #israel #democracy #explorepage #nexinnovate_hub #google #newstoday #africanews #worldnews

The U.S. military plans to return to Chad within a month for talks about revising an agreement that allows it to keep troops based there, an American general said Wednesday. Chad’s Request for Security Partnership Continues The U.S. said last month it was withdrawing most of its contingent of about 100 troops from Chad after the government questioned the legality of their operations there. This followed Niger’s decision to order all U.S. troops out of the country, dealing a blow to U.S. military operations in the Sahel, a vast region south of the Sahara desert where groups linked to al-Qaida and the Islamic State group operate. U.S. Marine Corps Gen. Michael Langley, the commander of U.S. Africa Command, made the comments to reporters in Ghana at the second annual African Maritime Forces Summit, or AMFS. _________ #swahilination #oneafrica #snnews #snnupdates #africa #africa #africanews

The African Union on Tuesday said that a bid to defraud the pan-continental body of more than $6 million from accounts held at Ethiopia’s main bank had been foiled. It said an individual not employed by the AU had tried to withdraw the money from its accounts at the Commercial Bank of Ethiopia (CBE) through forged payment orders to various recipients for construction and water drilling works. “We commend the vigilance and swift action of the CBE staff and our finance department who successfully thwarted the fraudulent attempt resulting in no funds being withdrawn, averting a potential loss and ensuring that the integrity of our financial controls and management remain intact,” the AU said in a statement. The incident took place on April 15 at a CBE branch within the AU’s headquarters in the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa, it said. Ethiopian security authorities were informed, the AU said, and “prompt action was taken to ensure the person(s) involved were identified and held in line with their investigative procedures.” The AU said while the attempted fraud was “disconcerting” it had highlighted potential vulnerabilities and led to a review of its security measures. “We are working closely with the Commercial Bank of Ethiopia to reinforce safeguards and implement enhanced protocols to ensure that fraudulent attempts to compromise the finances of the African Union are prevented.” In March, the CBE said it suffered a technical glitch that saw several thousand customers make fraudulent withdrawals to the tune of millions of dollars. The bank said about $19.5 million was taken while some media reports put the losses as high as $100 million, official figures show. ___________ #swahilination #oneafrica #africa #au #africanews #africa

Zimbabwe has introduced new banknotes and coins, set to commence on Tuesday, as all banks have received the local currency from the central bank for nationwide distribution. The highest denomination of the new currency, known as Zimbabwe Gold or ZiG, will be the 200 ZiG note, valued at approximately $15. In accordance with directives from authorities, individuals will be permitted to withdraw up to ZiG 3,000 per week, while companies can withdraw up to ZiG 30,000. Reports from local media suggest that there are no cash withdrawal limits for institutions such as parliament, courts, and international organizations. This move to introduce a new currency comes as the country grapples with escalating inflation, marking the latest effort to stabilize the economy. However, early indications reveal challenges for the new currency. A digital version has already experienced a 25% depreciation against the US dollar on the black market. This marks the third currency to be introduced in Zimbabwe within the past decade. The ZiG is backed by gold and foreign currency reserves, a measure aimed at safeguarding its value, according to statements from the central bank. ____________ #swahilination #oneafrica #snnews #zimbabwe #africa #news #africanews

Let's pray that both are safely found. 🙏 The Catholic Diocese of Tombura Yambio (CDTY) in South Sudan is urging the government to provide answers on the “whereabouts” of Fr. Luke Yugue, Parish Priest of Nazareth Nagero Parish, and his driver, Michael Gbeko, who disappeared upon his return from a pastoral mission in an area under the control of the SPLM/(10) forces. Also, Bishop Hiiboro of CDTY ask the people of God to pray for their safety. “As a church, we appeal to Your Excellency to help us bring Fr. Luka and those with him alive,” he said in his April 29 letter to President Kiir. “I have written to the Governor of Western Equatoria State on the matter, and sought help from county authority of the area without success. I am convinced that at this critical moment, the President of the Republic is the only person with the power to save and bring back the priest and his driver to us,” he indicated. “Your Excellency, I am deeply concerned about his disappearance and the state of affairs in Tombura County. You have to come in direct and impose state of Emergency. Your prompt response to this message will be greatly appreciated,” added. In an audio recording that ACI Africa obtained on April 28, Bishop Hiiboro explains the need for the President to “impose the state of emergency” in the South Sudanese County of Western Equatoria State. “I cannot believe that in a given country people can go out and kill each other, burn their houses, make others disappear, cause violence and the whole structure of the government is there, looking and sitting and watching this. I cannot believe this,” he laments. President Kiir “is the one to bring peace to Tombura; nobody else. He has to, because he's the president of the Republic of South Sudan. Nobody can do it better than him. He has the power, he has the influence ... we have given him the power to rule the people of South Sudan,” he said. “Let us continue to pray,” he says. “Let us not be desperate, but let us use our expertise to bring peace to those who have run from their homes,” added. #CatholicChurch #CatholicNews #ACIAfricaNews #ACIAfrica #saintoftheday #catholic #SouthSudanNews #AfricaNews

Nigeria has said it is seeking up to 2.25 billion dollars in World Bank loans, in a statement by Finance Minister Wale Edun. Speaking following the IMF/World Bank spring meetings in Washington D.C. at the weekend, Edun said the Nigerian government is also aiming to issue diaspora bonds later this year to attract foreign exchange into the country. The World Bank loans would comprise 1.5 billion dollars in development policy financing and 750 million dollars in programme-for-results financing. The bank’s board is expected to meet in June to approve the request, Edun said. Nigeria has faced a foreign exchange shortage that pushed its naira currency to record lows versus the US dollar this year, though it has since rebounded. The country is also dealing with record debt, high unemployment and large central bank financing although the finance minister said recently the government had halved federal borrowing from the central bank. _____________ #swahilination #oneafrica #snnews #snnupdates #africa #nigeria #loan #africanews

🇳🇬 German police have arrested 11 Nigerian men suspected of being in a mafia group who orchestrated large-scale dating scams. The Black Axe gang was involved in "multiple areas of criminal activity" globally, Bavarian police said in a statement. In Germany, the organisation focuses on romance scams and money laundering, the force added. The statement said: "Using false identities, the fraudsters for example signalled their intention to marry and in the course of further contact repeatedly demand money under various pretexts." Globally, the gang's main areas of operation were "human-trafficking, fraud, money-laundering, prostitution and drug-trafficking". The arrested suspects all hold Nigerian citizenship and are aged between 29 and 53. They were detained on Tuesday in raids across the region of Bavaria following a police probe that lasted more than two years.

The ancient Greeks are credited with inventing the world's first telecommunications device, known as the hydraulic telegraph, as early as the 4th century BC. This ingenious apparatus had the capability to send long-distance messages. Originally designed for military use by Aeneas Tacticus, the hydraulic telegraph was intended to efficiently transmit pre-arranged messages across the vast empire of Alexander the Great. Aeneas' work on sieges, Poliorcetika, which was later documented by Polybius, provides detailed descriptions of the telegraph's operation. Messages sent through the hydraulic telegraph included phrases like "Enemy in sight," "Cavalry attack," "We need wheat," "Infantry in action," and "Cyclical movement," among others. This early form of communication was a remarkable technological advancement for its time, showcasing the ancient Greeks' ingenuity and innovation. #ancient #greeks #technology #telegragh #telecommunications #telecomunicações #africanews #worldnewstoday #history #ict #explore #networking #nexinnovate_hub

The disaster is attributed to heavy El Niño rains, resulting in fatalities, crop destruction, property damages, and disruptions to transportation networks such as roads, bridges, and railways. Neighboring Kenya has also experienced severe flooding, claiming at least 32 lives so far. Since mid-March, Kenya has witnessed continuous rainfall, causing displacement for approximately 103,500 people and disrupting essential infrastructure. Rescue efforts are ongoing as some regions remain underwater, prompting the suspension of commuter trains across Kenya. #latestnewstoday #breakingnews #todaynews #africanews #underreported

May the Lord grant him eternal rest. 🕊️🙏 Fr. Antonio Bianchi, the oldest member of the Institute of Consolata Missionaries, “passed away in his sleep” at the age of 101 at the Consolata Regional House in Westlands in the Catholic Archdiocese of Nairobi, Kenya. During the Funeral Mass, he was remembered as a Catholic priest who "built his life on the Eucharist" and who loved the “people without segregation”. The Funeral Mass for the late Italian-born priest, who was to turn 102 years on June 13, took place at the chapel of the Consolata Cemetery Mathari in the Catholic Archdiocese of Nyeri in Kenya. On April 23, in his homily during the Funeral Mass, Bishop Hieronymus Emusugut Joya of Kenya’s Maralal Diocese said Fr. Bianchi showed the “secrets of fighting the battle of faith and remaining faithful to the end in our vocation and ministry.” “In consecrated life and missionary work, Fr. Bianchi has had a good struggle, efforts and contention without quitting or giving up and that is why he had died faithfully,” he said. In the 78 years that his late confrere served as a Priest, he “faithfully preached the word of God and administered the Sacraments that sanctified many,” added. “The secret of this man was the love of the people without segregation. His second secret was the love of the Eucharist. (Fr.) Bianchi, even in hospital, could not go without the blessed Sacrament. He built his life in the Eucharist,” he remarked. “This man teaches us that to live longer we need to build our lives in the Church,” added. Fr. Bianchi “leaves a legacy of being the greatest preacher of our time, the most faithful Church planter and a faithful missionary with a sound mind and steadfast in keeping the doctrine of our Church.” #CatholicChurch #CatholicNews #instacatholic #kenyanews #africanews #aciafrica #aciafricanews #catholic
