Happy birthday to the Cisse nonuplets, who turn five today! 🥳
On 4 May 2021, nine children were born to Halima Cisse (Mali) in the Ain Borja clinic in Casablanca, Morocco. This is the first known incidence of nonpulets surviving birth.

We are thrilled to share that @AWF_Official and @UNEP have officially formalized their partnership through a Memorandum of Understanding signed today in Nairobi with @AWFCEO and @radhika_ochalik.
Reflecting on the journey thus far, it was clear that this agreement builds on years of shared success, focused on environmental diplomacy and elevating African leadership within multilateral processes.
By combining AWF's on-the-ground expertise with UNEP’s global mandate, we are creating a more inclusive future for African conservation.

To this end, democracy has become a tool of war and rule of law the spice of the unruly. The biggest enemy of RIGHT is GOOD; not WRONG.

Father Deusdedit Ssekabira, a priest of Uganda and Diocesan Youth Chaplain of Masaka Diocese, ought today, on Gaudete Sunday, to be at the altar, joyfully leading the faithful in the Holy Mass. Instead, he has been taken from us - kidnapped on the 10th of December - and is believed to be suffering in captivity, subjected to grave mistreatment and humiliation. Pray for his safe and quick release 🙏

“Today marks a historic moment in the First Ever Women’s Environment Assembly. A space for every woman who has carried the work, the pain, the wisdom and the vision of environmental justice.
We have come far, but not enough. We have been heard, but not fully. Today we hold this space fiercely, lovingly, unapologetically for the women before us, the girls after us and for ourselves.”

“Gender equality is integral to effective environmental action.”
@FatouKineNdoye , Deputy Regional Director, UNEP ROA
At the first Women’s Environment Assembly in Nairobi, Fatou underscored that effective governance, inclusive participation and women’s leadership are essential to stronger environmental outcomes.
Women are shaping solutions across climate, nature, pollution, chemicals and resilience, and their voices will guide the road to UNEA 7.

These World Bank people want us to die. In addition to sh 5B NYOTA money. Now they are dishing $1.35B to boost affordable housing and concessional funding of $375M expected in May 2026.
The next administration MUST be having pragmatic solutions to this debt issue beyond this wantam and tumekubaliana akae Mlima shenanigans.

🚨 Environmental crime includes illegal wildlife trade, logging, fishing, waste dumping and more.
It fuels insecurity, pollutes ecosystems and undermines development in #Africa.
We are building awareness, research and capacity to fight back.
