Tears of joy in major breakthrough in botswana as the countrys high courts decriminalized homosexuality activist said when the long march out mens was read out until today on the books one this until gay laws offenders could be jailed for up to 70 s. Reading all the highly anticipated batiks the Sexual Orientation is huge its not a question of fashion speaking a strong case for human equality and nondiscrimination. Just in the moment but lets take a look at the daily hardship that faced whats one as the Gay Community. Todays judgment matters to touch again see more than most and we were correct botswanas 1st Gay Rights Organization he hopes this will be a defining moment seeing homosexuals treated equally in every decent to asians. Because then you see this is that we require men that sermon is theyre not aware of even Good Government has been holding be loose negative comments say to you so we want to be free to act as the services through the charity leg. When the team fight for l. G. B. To write and provide vital support to the countrys past security the Gay Community he has some encouragement for others struggling with their own sense of selfworth. That will have to be true that everybody deserves to be hip in the way they should embrace who in the. End. Accept it as it is because if you dont as accept yourself theres no on the can do you can accept you after today perhaps societys acceptance will now come a little easier joining me now from botswanas capital governor on is. Brilliant cody hello brilliant nice to have you here now you were in accords room when the ruling was made exactly what was going through your mind at the moment. I was going through a lot of mixed emotions i was really in shouts to like hi and you want to know what this is the science and when this is the end all when theyre quite who. I are were us trucks and as well as excited at the same time so i must say it really was a day off mixed emotions about misty excitement. Now what the ruling means to the community in botswana this ruling means so much to us this ruling means that family now im sure our. We feel confident as well because now the fact that there are ive shared you desktop white house trust thats honest then brought a curfew dense not that i had to retreat to not see out more. We are to feel as the quote is like in which nettie adams on we actually know that when it was on the line who are now in more than half of. The 54 african countries homosexuality is still illegal what do you envisage for the future of the l. G. B. Teac you community especially after the news that you had today. What i envision is us.

Now you sort of said a bit for my final question was because many people would see homosexuality on african but you see it is african after all is that was i what your position is. It is it is it is in the ditch and its about time we create a good mission and this unity that really didnt is it that for a long time has been kept away from us so the terrorist only not. Only tens of you know that also include you find how the future looks like and were going to get that this is only had. Ok brilliant cody its one his capital gaborone. Activist thanks for your time. Now to a story about Correctional Services for teenagers in nigeria thousands are in prison for yes awaiting trial and many prisons are overcrowded cameras are usually not welcome there but my colleague funny you see the access to correctional facility for juvenile offenders. In ogun states take a look. There as young as 14 juvenile offenders briefly allowed outside the facility and under close watch we met one of them we will call him tyo hes cutting back with his stories all too common. Guards from. Reporters are usually not. In prisons they are known for being notoriously overcrowded we are given a rare access by a guidance counselor who works at the facility he wants the conditions to improve this juvenile prison was built for 200 inmates it currently holds almost twice that number to force me to this moment for such people useful if they feel both people will want to keep for me definitely times for a bond movie just 2 of them are no good yes that means there is very little space 35 people share this cell they call their hostel and just one shower. So its clearly overcrowded yess its all crowded on your fantasy from the number of dogs its a wild card and there is not much to do not enough teachers lack of adequate Vocational Training to prepare for a life outside but what they miss the most is something else. For your health they are a man tells me hes been locked up for a year for drug related crime others are here for murder rape or some petty crime the goal is to make them better nigerians but the governments resources are stretched. Use of shows me the library its too small and is in need of renovation the school books are outdated. Its. Because if you dont good team needs to be doing. That means once released many end up hanging out on the street and getting involved in crime again but today should be about positivity where the governments efforts fall short and seek to fill the gap. Is being given out to 385. 00 students at. The special day because music these days is supposed to be about. To restore hope if children. Guest speakers are here as part of a private initiative to reform presence in nigeria 1st stop a well known fitness trainer. With the. He tells the students they can become anything they want its not too late words of encouragement they seldom hear and seldom believe the world is also graham nigerias youth Unemployment Rate is one of the highest in the ruled so its all too likely that after they have served their time here the teenagers will resume their old ways with their old friends and risk being locked up again. Im joined by and in motor in who is a state court made software and you dream again prison and youd foundation in nigeria to prepare children and teenagers for life after prison hello and thanks for your time as a Nigerian Government feeling its just delinquents thank you so much. Thank you for having me the government needs to do more absolutely the government needs to be intentional about what she wants for the future of the young ones in one cheer because the crime for rate is increasing i mean that the rate of crime right now is on the increase and the juvenile offense is becoming. So the government needs to do more the government needs to put in policies new supporting programs need to do a lot to call this offenses happening. Were talking about offenses but also on the big situations as overcrowding was at the core of overcrowded juvenile prison facilities. The caught the crowd in is the fact that the increase in crime rates keeps increasing and doors are we to try os need to be attended to speedily the government needs to do all they can to make sure that the young ones the Young Offenders who are awaiting trials should be attended to instead of just kept there for a very long period of time without being attended to and then the poverty rate also is on the increase and family instability can lead to this overcrowding happening right now in the facilities because a lot of the children are going into crimes. Like its a combination of many different factors that can make the situation better now while the iron prison door. Yes those in prison be better managed by the government and other stakeholders theres a lot of blame on the government. Well they can manage it by putting a lot of programs to create awareness so the Young Offenders know the consequences of what they actually going into so what they can do is make sure they put in more programs to create awareness of consequences for these crimes then one day. I mean none of them will be spared if they go into such then also they can create a lego system that tends to cases on ground that might not need to pay for that long at the facilities and also create. All welfare for those who might have been convicted why dont you know how to reintegrate them back into society thank you very much any.
