00:03:10
but that smoky had when can the car
reporting details coming up also

00:03:15
a law has been passed in Sudan that will
dismantle the foundations health former

00:03:20
president Omar al Bashir its government and
in Namibia voters continue to wait for

00:03:26
results in the country's election law have
these stories and more on African news

00:03:32
tonight. Our top story Saddam's

00:03:39
transitional government overturned

00:03:41
a moral policing law that criminalized
certain clothing for women and drinking out

00:03:47
call it also moved to dissolve the country's
former ruling party carrying out to

00:03:53
key demands of Sudan's
pro-democracy protesters Michael

00:03:57
a teet reports from Khartoum
Sudan says justice minister and

00:04:02
a sort of dean of the baddie says abolishing
the Public Order Act and disbanding

00:04:06
the National Congress Party he's in his
words of men for Sudan's legal reason he's

00:04:13
speaking in Arabic badasses many Sunnis
families have been subjected to beatings

00:04:19
How to us men and even imprisonment under
the Public Order Act. But you know think

00:04:25
. That if you have

00:04:31
a right with

00:04:32
a band and with. Minimal
group someone. That.

00:04:43
11 members of the suffering Council and 23
members of the cabinet voted to suspend

00:04:49
the National Congress Party and
to freeze all of their assets.

00:05:07
The. Rights groups the

00:05:14
public act targets remain and use an
outdated law left over from the 30 year rule

00:05:20
of ousted President Bashir is
speaking in Arabic. So the

00:05:27
action proves that the transitional government
is serious about cutting out reforms

00:05:32
I did get as the 1st step to what
is to billions government in Sudan.

00:05:40
A lot in our society to provide the basic
human rights and lift the oppression from

00:05:46
citizens this is

00:05:47
a good step but. We think that

00:05:53
a lot of promotion has sworn rights activist
and gotten rested and I mean it seems

00:05:58
that while overturning
the Public Order Act is

00:06:01
a good thing other provisions in Sudan
criminal code should be abolished which is

00:06:06
still used to oppress women. Only I don't
think this law has been the Polish

00:06:13
because articles from 1555
criminal act still exist.

00:06:20
That surprise and. So I don't think
anything has been changed yesterday

was separated from her ill mother and

00:15:02
brought to the states hospice in Johannesburg
at the time South Africa's health

00:15:07
system was in deep denial about the epidemic
and global aids fatalities were more

00:15:11
than 3 times what they are today before
she arrived at the sparrow village aids

00:15:15
hospice more than $7000.00 children had
died at the alarming rate of 9 deaths each

00:15:21
week. She was sick skinny and alone
ensure she would join the ranks

00:15:28
in fact she said she wanted to I was very
sick to such an extent that you know the

00:15:34
only thing that could give me peace was
to die so when I was 14 years old that's

00:15:41
when they started explaining to me read
this is what's happening and this you were

00:15:48
born with this disease and you have to
accept it and you just have to live with it

00:15:54
that's what she did today 22 on treatment
and healthy since 2003 only one child has

00:16:00
died of Aids related causes
here turning this hospice into

00:16:03
a house of hope. But as Unicef report this
year children are dying at the rate of

00:16:08
$320.00 per day around the world and about
half of them are not on treatment those

00:16:14
are alarming statistics because with early

00:16:34
we're talking about 54 percent of children
access in treatment about half of

00:16:39
children to access in treatment what
tallit in this age group is still high but

00:16:43
there's also the aspect that if we are
treating adults we need to change the way we

00:16:49
deliver services for every adult that's
access and treatment I we really Oskin

00:16:54
about the children and the fight is about
more than just Medicine says Selah who

their treatment even in 2009 she says youth
awareness is an issue people being bad

00:17:12
once I get his that I've noticed Bates has
and if I'm positive then I'll just die

00:17:17
so if I don't know I'm not going to I'm
not going to die so it's I think it's

00:17:22
a part where I'm to bear what you don't
know one Q 20 year old Johanna Mahat see

00:17:27
who was born with the
virus and abandoned as

00:17:29
a baby at the hospice only started treatment
last year when her white cell count

00:17:33
dipped below

00:17:33
a certain point she says the people who
helped her most in her journey with the

00:17:37
children around her they made me understand
that it's not the end of the world when

00:17:42
you're drinking ready to share. But actually
reminded me to take my pills every day

00:17:50
they told me everything about their
experiences will intervene and so for

00:17:57
me it was nothing serious because
I was but it was. Something like

00:18:04
that can be cured knowing that they're
taking their medications and they still have

00:18:10
the hots you know dreams of becoming

00:18:11
a nurse and the boss is on the board of the

00:18:20
a pillar of the strategy against pediatric
HIV and holds he says she wants to have

00:18:25
children someday but also however says the
psychological trauma of her own chronic

00:18:30
illness makes her shun motherhood but she
loves kids she says and wishes she could

00:18:35
go back and talk to her younger self
I'm proud of all cause she had to

00:18:42
accept that it is what it is and I
believe that I own I was born with

00:18:49
3 means I have my dream. A.j.

00:19:42
a prayer many nearly 2 animals are pushed
every month and that was nice to see it

00:19:48

00:28:45
because I'm saying. I need
to all count and then. I

00:28:52
know I would like you. But you're really
out says one man stands between him and

00:28:58
limping gold best friend
and compatriot he lives

00:29:02
a man and boy who to root out calls his
toughest competitor. How he's playing

00:29:09
he has

00:29:10
a speed thing and you didn't
so you might have had to. And

00:29:18
sometime when and which I mean. When I
mean it's Ok well to rule you know was no

to trade places as number one and 2 in the
world in track and field both athletes

00:29:54
perform under the watchful eye of their
coach but not Obama who says they are

00:29:59
opposing talents provide just the right
tension to give the runners the drive to

00:30:04
outperform each other with this sibling
rivalry which is very positive so I want to

00:30:10
contrast and I kind of compare the 2 were
the 2 different personalities but they're

00:30:15
pairing is it really is good for the 2 I'm
good for the club as well as good for my

00:30:20
walkers of course because they're really
proud and very well in terms of the way

00:30:24
they interact over there competing amongst
themselves and it is easier when you're

00:30:29
gauging in try that in training that are

00:31:22
minute 45 2nd point and I don't want to
regard proper training without proper

techniques so this is where the interest
can but if you can run like these and

00:31:32

. Going to surprise. Spain one. His 2nd
Race to Dubai golf title by winning the

00:46:03
d.p.

00:46:04
World Tour Championship in Dubai Rob began
the final round with those 6 shots lead

00:46:09
cruised to the 1st consecutive event win
of his career but miscues and challengers

00:46:15
are raced his advantage it's gone at
some point you're bound to have some bad

00:46:19
stretch of golf and unfortunately for me
it happened from 8 till about 15 of the

00:46:25
final rounds that over earlier in the
tournament but I never had to grind out after

00:46:29
losing

00:46:29
a lead like that so it was meant to be to
happen I did as it happened I now can and

00:46:34
I'm happy about it it was

00:46:35
a lot of her mental you know that's the
whole thing just you know refocusing and

00:46:40
put everything in perspective remember
I said a chance to win still Rahm had

00:46:43
a chance to win on the final hole hard to
believe that decided that the 1st 3 shots

00:46:48
here and 18 some of his calmness have been
all day just because I tell my 718 that

00:46:53
you got a chance to meet them that you dream
of having a birdie a last hole to win

00:46:56
a tournament and you can make this

00:46:57
a possibility so. That we could
pray for another win the intake and

00:47:02
a standing bunker shot and I made it. Hard
to believe from finished at 19 under par

00:47:08
while Tommy Fleetwood of England was one
shot back and one shot away from having

00:47:13
the same winner story
is wrong so it gave me

00:47:15
a little bit of disappointment because I
was powerless in any call myself and I was

00:47:21
well I am very proud of I don't know about
9 and. You know John's time tense moment

00:47:26
is played on the level of share and. You
know like that it doesn't last and yet

00:47:32

something. So I can't smile with nothing

00:48:02

and I can do nothing so it's going to

00:48:06

00:48:12

I mean part of his life. Had been

00:48:19
a great year and again after taking

00:48:24
a risk but I felt like he was needed so for
everybody out there the things that you

00:48:27
need to train all the time this is just

00:48:29
a new class important
he added legends have

well made the right decisions in the right
times. Energy consumption was good I
