Kaduna Loses Two Officials, Others in Senegal-Bound Crash

Country Sees Dramatic Escalation in Homophobic Persecution

The global outcry against Uganda's 'Anti-Homosexuality Bill' could not be more deafening. Opponents of the legislation have condemned the effort not just to put gays in prison, which is already the law in Uganda, but to further criminalise the 'promotion of homosexuality', require that suspected gays and lesbians be turned in to authorities, and to punish some individuals - including those who are HIV positive or those euphemistically called 'repeat offenders' - with death.

Financé à hauteur de 1,2 milliards de francs CFA (1,8 million d’euros), le projet d’incubateur d’entreprises est le fruit d’un partenariat entre l’Université Cheikh Anta Diop de Dakar (UCAD), l’Institut de recherche pour le développement (IRD) et l’ambassade de France au Sénégal.

‘’Avec l’installation de cet incubateur, notre pays inaugure une nouvelle ère’’, a soutenu le recteur Abdou Salam Sall, relevant que ‘’le monde académique africain œuvre déjà pour la création d’entreprises’’.

Comment by Eyembe Elango on November 18, 2009 at 3:27pm: West African Villagers Stake Their Fortunes on the Future Price of Rice
Hoping to take advantage of high global food prices that brought many poor nations to the brink of chaos last year, farmers across West Africa are reaping what experts say is one of the best harvests in recent memory........The price of unprocessed rice in Senegal has steadily fallen from its peak early last year of more than $30 per 110-pound sack. The drop has not been as drastic as the ones experienced in corn and wheat markets across the world. But the price for rice needs to be at least $20 for farmers here to make a profit, and as the harvest approached late last year, the price was hovering at $22 a sack.
