Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast

Listen to the Sat. Jan. 7, 2023 edition of the Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast hosted by Abayomi Azikiwe, editor of the Pan-African News Wire. This episode features our regular PANW report with dispatches on the announcement by the government of Chad that it has recently thwarted an attempted military coup; Ugandan military forces have captured the leader of the rebel ADF grouping; the Southern African state of Mozambique has taken a non-permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council; and 49 Ivory Coast soldiers arrested in neighboring Mali have been pardoned by the military regime. In the second hour we look at the events leading up to the commemoration of the 111th anniversary of the African National Congress (ANC) in the Republic of South Africa. The ANC Youth League has been addressed by the recently-elected Secretary General Fikili Mbalula while President Cyril Ramaphosa delivered the keynote at the gala dinner. Finally, we look back on the 60th anniversary of the mass Civil Rights Movement of 1963 where demonstrations and rebellions erupted in both southern and northern cities.
