In a press conference on Monday, Cellou Diallo said he was willing to work with the junta, a major endorsement from the political class for coup leader Mamady Doumbouya

Popular Tanzanian radio presenter Barton Mwemba alias Mwijaku has apologised to Tanasha Donna who has threatened to sue him after he claimed to be the father of her son whom she sired with Diamond Platinumz.
Mwijaku said being an African man who hails from the same home town as Diamond Kigoma province, children always belong to society and as such being peers, Naseeb Jr was his son as well but doesn't necessarily mean he is the biological father.
Kwa hiyo Tanasha na Wakenya labda hawakunielewa sababu naishi na mila na desturi zetu hivyo tuwiane radhi.
In response, Mwijaku cheekily picked up the infamous Diamond's 2017 phrase and claimed that he is ready to crawl on his knees from Dar es Salaam to Nairobi to apologise to Tanasha and prevent that from happening.
Hivyo akikataa nitawachukua ndugu zangu, tukatiziea Mombasa mpaka Nairobi tukamwombe radhi\"
Back in 2017, after confessing to having cheated on Zari Hassan with Hamisa Mobetto and in the process sired a son, Diamond claimed that he would crawl on his knees all the way to South Africa if he had to earn her forgiveness and trust.
The arrest of the most wanted genocide suspect of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi, Félicien Kabuga, 84, in a Paris apartment last week, highlights renewed French commitment to improve relations with Rwanda, long injured by allegations against each other on the genocide.
In an e-mail interview with The EastAfrican, Phil Clark, a professor of International Politics and scholar of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi at the London-based School of Oriental and African Studies said;
“The discovery of Kabuga in Paris raises major questions about how long he has lived in France and about how much the French authorities knew.
His decision was unpopular in French political circles but applauded by Rwandan authorities, who had for long called on France to come clean over its role in the genocide.
In January 2016, Gen Jean-Claude Lafourcade, who led France's UN-mandated unit in Rwanda in 1994, angered Rwandan officials when he said during an inquiry that “no ammunition, not even a bullet” was provided by the French government to the interahamwe militia that carried out the genocide.
There should be no impediment to this trial taking place in Rwanda - and it would bolster the ICTR's legacy to have assisted the Rwandan judicial system to the extent that it can try such a high profile genocide suspect as Kabuga,” Prof Clark said.
Small business owners in Seychelles are having mixed reactions to a credit line facility put in place by the Central Bank to help micro, small and medium enterprises impacted by COVID-19.
Roger Morel, the owner of a shop selling garments, told SNA on Thursday that due to the fact that his business is down the loan facility has come at an opportune time to help out.
\"I did not get much details on the formalities to apply for the loan and I do not know the limit of how much you can apply for, but I think it will be a good relief for businesses,\" said Morel.
A gift shop owner, Heather Longhurst, said she is going to apply for the loan and it is a good initiative by CBS to put it at a low-interest rate.
Longhurst agreed to this and said that this is very good as the loan should be left for small businesses as they are the ones that need more support.
Devolution Cabinet Secretary Eugene Wamalwa told a press conference 810,665 people across the country were now affected by floods up from 808,000.
Wamalwa said that families in more than 33 counties affected will continue to receive relief food through the month of June amid projections of more rains in Western, Nyanza, Lake Basin and Coast as well as parts of Rift Valley region.
\"Relief food will continue being supplied to families into June until rains stop.
After June, there will be the critical part of supporting and rehabilitating families, most of these families don't have homes and are living in tents,\" he said.
\"We will be able to work with counties, identify families affected so that after rains stop, we will see how to restore normalcy,\" CS Wamalwa.
Trump, who previously said he was “allowed to” vote by mail in Florida’s March 17 primary, has railed against Democratic-led states offering that same opportunity to their voters.
On Wednesday, Trump posted a tweet threatening to “hold up funding” to the state of Michigan after it sent applications for voting by mail to registered voters.
Trump’s tweet falsely claimed both that Michigan sent voters the actual ballots needed to vote and that Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson “illegally” permitted them to be sent.
In a later tweet on Wednesday, Trump issued a similar threat to the state of Nevada, which recently sent voters ballots ahead of the state’s June 9 primary, due to concerns about the potential spread of coronavirus.
Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) told HuffPost he expects “90%” of Utahns to submit mail-in ballots, rebutting Trump’s claim that voting by mail hurts Republicans.
