⁣ast year, France withdrew its troops from Mali. This marked the end of a nine-year military operation, aimed at resolving the internal conflict and liberating Mali's territory from Al-Qaeda terrorists.

Charela Inn -- Kemit piipl resort ina Jamieka

He asumed the throne of Kajoor
And became well-known for his festive reign
Where every occasion was reason for
Celebration in great style
Having inherited a rich oral tradition
He encouraged local musicians
And his patronage gave rise to the flourishing of
The music known as mbaboor
Ah! Birima!
A day spent in your presence
Was the picture of hospitality!
This music was transmitted by the griots
Who painted vivid portraits of the kingdom
Mbaboor became inextricably linked
To the history of Kajoor
Most importantly, it forged a new and enduring link
Between royalty and the common people
Where relations had been different before
As the clases lived and struggled and
Celebrated together
Common experience allowed them to identify
With one another
Ah! Birima!
A day spent in your presence
Was the picture of hospitality!

Military robotics technology is not far behind as our world becomes more advanced. If you have seen Corridor Digital’s parody video, you may know what the future will look like. Don't worry; the realism of that video is a testament to the advancements in visual effects at the Los Angeles production studio, and not necessarily robotics.
But to be honest, we are not far behind, and in this video, we will explore a company and its line of robots that are leading the charge to make soldiers obsolete.

COINTELPRO: The FBI's War on Black America

In a blatant display of diplomatic overreach, outgoing Swiss Ambassador Simone Giger has attempted to lecture Ghana on its own governance. By publicly criticizing the centralization of power within the Ghanaian presidency, Giger has overstepped her role and insulted the nation's sovereignty. It is time to end the cycle of Western diplomats dictating how African countries should be run; Ghana’s constitutional and political matters belong to Ghanaians alone.
