Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast

Listen to the Sat. May 1, 2021 edition of the Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast hosted by Abayomi Azikiwe, editor of the Pan-African News Wire. The program features our regular PANW report with dispatches on the Southern African Development Community (SADC) regional organization and their efforts to end the insurgency in northern Mozambique; an editorial published in the Zimbabwe Herald suggests that Africa should lead the struggle for a new economic world dispensation; instability has increased in Chad in the aftermath of the assassination of former President Idriss Deby Itno and the ascendancy of his son as leader of the oil-rich state; and the police in the United States are continuing to inflict repression on the African American people and other oppressed communities. In the second hour we listen to a recent briefing by the World Health Organization (WHO) Director General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus on the status of the COVID-19 pandemic and the vaccination programs aimed at curtailing the pandemic. Finally, we review issues related to contemporary affairs in Africa and the international community.
