In Burkina Faso, the government has brought together more than 1,000 traditional herbalists as part of efforts to modernize the country’s traditional medicine sector.
The government believes many herbalists hold generations of knowledge about medicinal plants that deserves proper scientific research and testing.
Instead of letting that knowledge disappear, they want to study it, improve it, and see what can be produced safely on a larger scale.
Remember, long before modern hospitals, many African communities relied on traditional medicine for generations.

I have warned repeatedly that Lagos risks going under water. I once said that, before long, anyone who is not a scuba diver may find it difficult to live in Lagos.
Lagos is badly planned and badly managed by the same man now mismanaging Nigeria. Instead of investing in proper drainage and flood-control infrastructure, the land-grabbing elite have continued reclaiming marshlands, wetlands, lagoons, and the sea for profit. The consequences are now obvious.
Only weeks ago, I vehemently rejected the reintroduction of environmental sanitation by the blind bats running Lagos on Tinubu’s behalf. Today, garbage is everywhere, drainage channels are clogged, and the flooding being experienced across the state has been made worse by this failure.
They have looted Lagos blind. Their obsession is grabbing more land, often from the poor, rather than building a livable city. The disastrous results are now before us all.

Anyone watching the latest desperate actions of the dying Tinubu regime might be tempted to think they are signs of strength. They are not. They are merely the last kicks of a failing order.
We have been here before. We have seen it, endured it, and overcome it. The outcome will be no different, eventual defeat, disgrace, and the humbling of those who wield power against the people.
I urge all citizens, comrades, and freedom fighters to remain resolute and unwavering. I am unfazed by these developments, and neither is the momentum of our struggle. The velocity of the movement for justice, accountability, and genuine democracy remains undiminished.
Stay focused. Stay courageous. Victory belongs to those who refuse to surrender. #Sowore2027 #TakeItBack #RevolutionNOW
Justice M.G. Umar of the Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered that I be remanded in Kuje Prison for my one absence from court since the bogus case began, even though I was away consulting with my new legal team led by Olumide-Fusika, SAN.
Mr. Olumide-Fusika duly informed the court that my absence was solely for consultations with him, yet the judge proceeded to order my remand regardless.
I need hardly say that I am the least bothered by this development.
Imprisonment has never defeated a just cause, and it never will.
I urge the Nigerian people and all our comrades to remain resolute, steadfast, and unyielding in the quest for a genuine revolution that will liberate our country from oppression, injustice, and misrule.
The struggle continues. Victory is certain. #RevolutionNow #Sowore2027
Between 1984 and 1989, the apartheid state plunged South Africa 🇿🇦 into an extended and progressively brutal State of Emergency in a desperate attempt to crush a wave of insurrection that had erupted in response to the tricameral constitution, which entrenched Black political exclusion, and the explosive growth of the United Democratic Front and allied community organisations.
A partial emergency, first declared in July 1985 in the most volatile townships of the Eastern Cape and the PWV (Pretoria-Witwatersrand-Vereeniging) triangle, was followed in June 1986 by a nationwide State of Emergency. Renewed annually until 1990, it vested the security forces—the South African Police, the South African Defence Force, and the newly empowered municipal police and kitskonstabels (instant constables)—with sweeping, virtually unchallengeable powers.
Under the regulations, indefinite detention without trial became the norm, with over 30,000 people, some as young as eleven, thrown into prison where torture, suffocation, electric shocks, and severe beatings were routine. The state banned all unauthorised public gatherings, imposed dusk-to-dawn curfews, and enforced an information blackout by forbidding press reporting on unrest, security force actions, and the detentions themselves.
Troops in Casspir armoured vehicles and police in yellow Hippos saturated the townships, raiding houses at night, sealing off neighbourhoods, and turning schools into garrison posts. Teargas became a relentless everyday reality—canisters fired into funeral processions, church services, and even kitchens—to break the spirit of defiance.
A particularly sinister feature was the state’s clandestine sponsorship of vigilante groups, such as the witdoeke (white headbands) in Crossroads, who were armed and directed to unleash terror against comrades and community activists, resulting in massacres and the forced displacement of hundreds of thousands.
