Kvinnorna lockas med äventyr – men misshandlas "som åsnor" i krigsfabrik

Kvinnorna lockas med äventyr – men misshandlas "som åsnor" i krigsfabrik

Ryssland har börjat rekrytera afrikanska kvinnor till ett ”jobb- och utbildningsprogram” i delrepubliken Tatarstan, kallat Alabuga-programmet, enligt AP. Även flera influencers hjälper till i marknadsföringen av programmet. En av dem är den sydafrikanska artisten Bassie, med hela 800 000 följare. På sin Tiktok lockar hon med gratis ryskalektioner och sjukförsäkring. – Där de saknar arbetskraft, där kommer du in, hörs hon säga i en video. I reklamerna lovas kvinnorna gratis flygbiljetter, pengar och ett ”äventyr i Europa”. Allt man behöver göra är att klara ett datorspel och lära sig 100 ryska ord. Men löftena om skolgång och ett välbetalt jobb bryts fort. I stället hamnar många av kvinnorna i ryska drönarfabriker i Alabuga-området där de tillverkar vapen som senare används i kriget i Ukraina. Kemikalier orsakar hål i kinderna Kvinnorna är i åldern 18 till 22 och kommer från länder som Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya, Sydsudan, Sierra Leone och Nigera. Man har även rekryterat folk från Sri Lanka och hoppas kunna få fler från Asien och Latinamerika. Ryska tjänstemän har anordnat rekryteringsevenemang i Uganda och även försökt rekrytera från barnhem, enligt meddelanden på Alabugas Telegram-kanal. Man har även besökt fler än 26 ambassader i Moskva för att försöka sprida programmet. I fabrikerna hanterar kvinnorna starka kemikalier utan tillräcklig skyddsutrustning. En av arbetarna beskriver för AP hur hon fick ”små hål” i kinderna som kliade. ”Jag förbannar dagen jag började” Under första halvåret av 2024 rekryterades 182 kvinnor, de flesta från central- och östafrikanska länder, enligt en Facebook-sida som marknadsför Alabuga-programmet. Till en början lovades kvinnorna en lön på 700 dollar i månaden, men många säger att de inte fått ut hela sin lön eller att pengarna använts för att betala deras flygbiljetter, boende, vård och ryskalektioner. Några av kvinnorna berättar för AP att de inte förstått att de skulle jobba med drönare, förrän de väl kommit på plats i fabriken. I inlägg på sociala medier vittnar kvinnor om att de övervakas dygnet runt och flera vågar inte prata med reportrar. – Företaget handlar om att göra drönare. Inget annat. Jag ångrar och förbannar den dagen jag började göra alla dessa saker, säger en kvinna.

OS-löparen död – pojkvännen misstänks ha satt eld på henne

OS-löparen död – pojkvännen misstänks ha satt eld på henne

Tidigare i veckan lades den ugandiska OS-maratonlöparen Rebecca Cheptegei in på sjukhus i Kenya efter att ha blivit svårt brännskadad. Nu meddelar ordförande i Ugandas olympiska kommitté att 33-åringen dött av sina skador. Cheptegeis pojkvän, som också vårdas på sjukhus för brännskador, misstänks ha orsakat hennes död. ”Jag ropade på hjälp” Polisen uppger att pojkvännen ska ha köpt bensin, hällt det över Cheptegei och tänt på efter ett bråk på söndagen. Kenyanska medier skriver att en av friidrottarens döttrar såg vad som hände. Han sparkade på mig när jag försökte hjälpa min mamma, säger hon. Jag ropade på hjälp, en granne kom och försökte släcka lågorna med vatten, men det gick inte. Rebecca Cheptegei slutade på 44:e plats i maratonloppet i Paris med tiden 2.32.14.

Heart and Soul: Queer and Christian in Kenya

What does it mean to be a gay Christian in a country where many Church leaders say your sexuality is wicked and even demonic? In 2013, a group of LGBT Christians in Kenya started meeting for Sunday worship, to practice their faith free from homophobia. The community grew and became Kenya’s first openly queer-affirming Church - a sanctuary for diverse believers who feel excluded from mainstream religious spaces. But with calls for new laws to further curtail the rights of LGBT Kenyans, and increasingly open homophobia and anti-gay protests, this sanctuary may be in jeopardy. While some members consider returning to the closet, others are determined to protect their sacred space, come what may.

A New Middle Class in Kenya: Faking It to Make It

Most Kenyan youths live under the gloom of economic uncertainty which leads to hopelessness. This has been against a backdrop of multiple interventions from the government and other stakeholders. Regardless, the subject of youth and livelihoods has endured massive interest within Kenya, with the youth bulge described as an ‘opportunity’ and a ‘ticking time bomb’ in some quarters. What cannot be understated however is that the conversations are often single sided focusing on youth unemployment which leads to other conversation son how young men find themselves in crime. A less talked about group is the youthful middle class and the challenges they face since their issues take a backseat as the government focuses on dealing with crime and unemployment.  In this episode, we hosted Dr. Peter Lockwood who is a political economist and research fellow at the University of Manchester and has done research on the issues facing the youths in Kenya to give us a better perspective.

Taking Stock of the EAC: Leadership, Competition and Security

Somalia was recently formally admitted into the East African Community, a regional bloc with aspirations for deeper economic and political union. Somalia joins a more expanded bloc with members Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi, South-Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo. The recent admissions into the bloc have drawn criticism, with some analysts arguing that South Sudan, DRC and now Somalia are unstable and would bring instability into an already fragile region. However, others have argued that Somalia’s admission was long due as the people of Somalia are already deeply embedded within the East African Community besides sharing a border with Kenya. Our guest, Dr Sylvanus Wekesa, agrees with the latter. He is a foreign policy expert and a Research Associate at the African Leadership Centre, King’s College London. In a previous episode of the Kenyanist, he helped us understand Kenya’s foreign policy during President Uhuru Kenyatta’s time in office. That episode can be found by following this link https://www.thekenyanist.com/kenyas-foreign-policy-in-uhuru-kenyattas-era/
