Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast

Listen to the Sat. Jan. 5, 2019 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 continuing doctor's strike in the Republic of Zimbabwe; Ethiopia says it will complete the construction of the Great Renaissance Dam Project by the conclusion of 2020; the United States President Donald Trump says he has deployed AFRICOM troops to Gabon in light of the post-elections situation in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC); and Syria has protested the bombing of its terrritory by the Pentagon after the Trump administration said it is withdrawing 2,000 troops from the Middle Eastern state. In the second hour we commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Cuban Revolution. Finally we look back on the 58th anniversary of the assassination of Congolese Prime Minister Patrice Lumumba who was killed at the aegis of Washington and Brussels in Jan. 1961.
