Nile Basin

So Water Journalist Africa is the mother organization.

Then InfoNile now is the arm that reports on the Nile Basin.

Yes, yeah.

And that's how we started basically about how we do our things.

And whenever we try or whenever we pitch, we really see the feedback that comes through is quite unique from other media houses that actually maybe pitch, and that gives us...

It gives us... information that we really needed and it is something that we can actually work on and maybe continue doing.

For example, maybe what Andrew didn't say or mention, having us to work in the Nile Basin has actually given us an opportunity to try as much as possible to understand issues that happen around the Nile Basin countries.

And these issues are really very important.

So, so the water that fortunately they have studied this the gradient of So it's lower than other...

It connects to the Nile River Basin.

So the groundwater from there is freshwater and it flows down in the geology.

Okay, so

I mean, it's literally to do with livelihood.

The Nile River Basin states, uh have competing interests if you look at the rivalry between ethiopia and sudan long running rivalry it has a lot to do with who has access over the null um so it's it's uh coastline gives it an enormous strategic significance and egypt also has major interests because of the nile um so As you've said, it sits within the wider competition and it involves the ports, military access and so on.

So it's not geographically peripheral, which is what makes the lack of coverage actually more sinister because it is so critical to understanding and to reconciling and resolving the Sudanese issue that the reason why it's been extended for this time can only point to you know, sinister interests that are benefiting from its continued war.

That is very, very important.
