Pan-African Journal: Special Worldwide Radio Broadcast

Listen to the Sun. April 19, 2020 special 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 military deployment of the armed forces by the embattled Prime Minister of Lesotho in response to a constitutional court ruling; over 40 prisoners from Boko Haram being held in Chad have died in prison; the People's Republic of China has strongly objected to the hostile foreign policy initiatives emanating from Washington; and African Americans in the United States are being disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic which has killed more people than in any other country in the world. During the second and third hours we continue our coverage of the COVID-19 pandemic with reports on the investigations into the origins of the virus and the impact of the suspension of funding to the World Health Organization (WHO) by the Trump administration. Finally, we examine the African responses to the pandemic along with measures being taken in various states.
