3211958	有图 <p>By Isaac Abrak</p><p>In the wake of Nigeria’s 2015 general elections, a powerful Hausa phrase emerged: “Guguwar Buhari” —literally Buhari’s whirlwind. It aptly captured the tidal wave of support that swept General Muhammadu Buhari and many others into power under the banner of the All Progressives Congress (APC). The whirlwind was so intense that it carried along even political unknowns—individuals with no record, reputation, or merit—simply because they stood beside Buhari, either on campaign posters or on the ballot.</p> <p>That year, the APC logo became a winning ticket. Voters, driven by their deep trust in Buhari, voted for any name attached to it. The former general himself fueled this trend with his now-famous campaign line: “APC sama da kasa”—vote APC from top to bottom. And that’s exactly what the Talakawa (the masses), particularly in the North, did. From the presidency to the National Assembly, governorships, state assemblies, and local councils, a wave of victories was handed out—not earned—thanks to one man’s charisma.</p><p>SPONSOR AD</p> <p>But mere months into Buhari’s administration, another Hausa phrase quietly entered public discourse: “Guguwar Buhari ta kwashi yayi”—“Buhari’s whirlwind picked up garbage”. The people began to wake up. The same whirlwind that propelled leaders into power had also brought in many unqualified, self-serving, and underperforming politicians. Disillusionment replaced euphoria. The Talakawa realized that too many of their elected representatives were unworthy of the offices they held.</p><p>By 2019, the tide was turning. Buhari may have secured a second term, but many of those who had previously clung to his coattails were rejected by a more conscious electorate. The blind loyalty was fading. Voters began asking tougher questions and demanding results. Northern Nigeria was slowly moving away from political sentimentalism toward issue-based engagement.</p><p>In 2023, another dimension to Buhari’s political capital emerged—the myth of his “sacred 12 million votes. For over a decade, Buhari had consistently pulled around 12 million votes in presidential elections, largely from the North. This voting bloc became a prized political asset. Every major candidate, including now-President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, sought to harness this number. Whether he succeeded or not is a matter for future political autopsy. But what’s no longer in doubt is that the whirlwind that delivered that power is now gone.</p><p>Some politicians still believe they can inherit this legacy—that they can simply stand in Buhari’s shoes and command the North’s votes. But such thinking is delusional.</p><p>As one guest rightly noted during a special NTA broadcast on the day of Buhari’s burial, those 12 million votes weren’t earned overnight. They were built over decades of public service—beginning with Buhari’s tenure as Military Governor of the old North-Eastern State, followed by his service as Minister of Petroleum, Head of State, Chairman of the Petroleum Trust Fund, and eventually President. It was a reputation forged through discipline, integrity, and patriotic service.</p><p>Even so, Buhari’s aura wasn’t untouchable. As his presidency wore on, the same Talakawa who had once idolized him began expressing disappointment. He was booed at campaign rallies in Kano and Bauchi in 2019, and most memorably in Maiduguri in 2020, when he visited after a Boko Haram attack. Angry residents chanted “Ba mu da shugaba!” (“We have no leader!”) and “Ba mayi!” (we don’t want!). His controversial border closure policy, intended to curb smuggling, had instead led to food scarcity and economic hardship. If “Mai Gaskiya” (The Truthful One) could be jeered, how much more any politician attempting to coast on his reputation?</p><p>Today, the Northern voter is changing. The Talakawa want more than slogans. They now demand:</p><p> Functional hospitals</p><p> * Affordable, quality education</p><p> * Food security</p><p> * Reliable electricity</p><p> * Clean water</p><p> * And, above all, security from terrorism and violence</p><p>These are not campaign fantasies—they are expected deliverables. Any leader who wants to command the North must first prove they can deliver these essentials. The North is at a crossroads. It must move from dependency to productivity. Leaders must rise to this challenge or risk being discarded by a growing wave of enlightened voters.</p><p>Indeed, there is evidence of this awakening everywhere. On social media, young Northerners—many of them Hausa-Fulani Muslims—are openly rejecting traditional political formulas. Some now declare they would rather vote for a Christian-Christian ticket than a Muslim-Muslim one, if it means better governance. It’s tempting to dismiss this as fringe sentiment—but the message is spreading fast. And it’s reshaping public consciousness.</p><p>Let’s be clear: Buhari’s 12 million votes pampered a generation of politicians. Many rode on his back without offering anything meaningful to the people. That era is now behind us. The Northern voter is evolving. Political awareness is rising. And with it, a new demand for performance, integrity, and accountability.</p><p>Whoever aspires to lead the North, command the Talakawa, and inherit Buhari’s political legacy must offer more than recycled slogans. They must present tangible evidence of good governance not just political promises.</p><p>This shift isn’t a crisis—it’s a victory for democracy. And perhaps, it’s the greatest legacy Buhari leaves behind: a Nigeria where voters are thinking for themselves. If you doubt it, just wait for 2027. The Talakawa will speak again—and this time, even louder.</p><p>In death, Buhari has unexpectedly revived his 2015 campaign slogan:“Chanji Dole! no need to translate this one.</p><p>Isaac Abrak is a Hostile Environment Journalist, a One Nigerianist, and Chairman of the Northern Christian Youth Professionals.</p><p> [emailprotected]</p><p> <small>Sponsored</small><p>News Update: Nigerians have now been approved to get paid in US Dollars, acquire Ultra-premium domains for as low as $1700 and profit $15,000 (₦24Million naira).

3211948	无图 <p>De oud-militairen die vorige maand schuldig werden bevonden aan de moord op vier Nederlandse IKON-journalisten in El Salvador gaan de straf aanvechten. Dat zegt de advocaat van de nabestaanden tegen de NOS.</p> <p>De drie mannen werden vorige maand veroordeeld tot dertig jaar cel. Het gaat om oud-minister van Defensie Guillermo Garcia, oud-directeur Francisco Antonio Morán van een speciale politiedienst en ex-kolonel Mario Reyes Mena, die wordt gezien als de directe opdrachtgever van de moorden in 1982.</p> <p>Toen het vonnis werd uitgesproken, stelde de rechter dat de uitspraak definitief is en dat het dus niet mogelijk was om in hoger beroep te gaan. Wat wél kan, is een verzoek indienen om het vonnis nietig te verklaren. Dat doen de mannen nu. Zo hopen ze de celstraf alsnog te ontlopen.</p> Burgeroorlog <p>In El Salvador woedde tussen 1980 en 1992 een burgeroorlog tussen een door de VS gesteunde rechtse regering en linkse guerrillagroepen. De journalisten Koos Koster, Jan Kuiper, Joop Willemsen en Hans ter Laag van de voormalige omroep IKON waren in 1982 in het land voor een televisiereportage. Toen ze op 17 maart in guerrillagebied probeerden te komen, werden ze door militairen van het regeringsleger opgewacht en doodgeschoten.</p> <p>Jan Kuiper, Koos Koster, Joop Willemsen en Hans ter Laag (vlnr) enkele dagen voor de moord:</p> <p>Nabestaanden probeerden de daders tientallen jaren zonder succes voor de rechter te brengen. Vorige maand kwam er toch een uitspraak. Behalve de drie oud-militairen werd ook de staat El Salvador veroordeeld vanwege het vertragen van de rechtsgang. De staat moet de nabestaanden publiekelijk excuses maken, oordeelde de rechter. Eerder maakte het Openbaar Ministerie van El Salvador al bekend dat het daartegen in beroep gaat.</p> Correspondent Midden-Amerika Boris van der Spek: <p>"Voor de nabestaanden is dit een grote klap in het gezicht. Zij hadden bij het eerste vonnis gehoord dat het niet mogelijk is om in hoger beroep te gaan. Dat de daders nu toch een manier hebben gevonden om te zorgen dat het vonnis mogelijk nietig wordt verklaard, betekent voor hen dat er weer een periode van onzekerheid aanbreekt.</p> <p>Ook in El Salvador wordt de zaak op de voet gevolgd. Als dit vonnis nietig wordt verklaard, betekent dat ook voor de nabestaanden van andere slachtoffers van de burgeroorlog dat er toch geen gerechtigheid is voor alle mensenrechtenschendingen uit dat tijdperk.</p> <p>Het is onduidelijk hoe groot de kans is dat de veroordeelden gelijk krijgen.

Vaststaat dat er plunderingen en wraakacties zijn uitgevoerd. Daarbij zouden de gewapende bedoeïenen hebben samengewerkt met militairen van het regeringsleger.

3211940	无图 <p>Het piept en het kraakt op het landelijke spoor. De grootste vervoerder van het land, de NS, zit al enkele jaren op rij diep in de financiële problemen. Ondertussen moeten te veel reizigers staan in de trein, die ook net iets te veel met vertraging rijdt. Ook ligt NS overhoop met de vakbonden over een nieuwe cao én staat de vergunning voor het landelijke spoornet op het spel.</p> Wat is er aan de hand? <p>Het lukt NS niet om financieel te herstellen van de coronacrisis, toen de treinen door de lockdowns twee jaar zo goed als leeg waren. Mede door het vaker kunnen thuiswerken zijn er minder reizigers dan voor 2020. Ondertussen willen conducteurs en machinisten beter worden betaald en gecompenseerd voor het zware werk op de trein. Maandag wezen de twee grootste vakbonden een laatste cao-aanbod van NS af, waardoor nieuwe stakingen dreigen. Hier kwam donderdag nog een nieuw probleem bij: de Europese Commissie stapt naar het Europese Hof van Justitie omdat NS zou zijn voorgetrokken bij een nieuwe vergunning op het landelijke spoornet.</p> Wat betekent dat precies? <p>Lokale, regionale en landelijke overheden geven vergunningen uit waarmee vervoerders een bepaalde periode bussen, trams of treinen in een gebied mogen rijden. Deze vergunningen moeten volgens Europese regels worden aanbesteed. Elke vervoerder heeft dan een eerlijke kans om als beste uit de bus te komen. NS was sinds 1938 lange tijd monopolist op het Nederlandse spoor. Rond de eeuwwisseling werden spoorlijnen in het noorden, oosten en zuiden losgekoppeld van het landelijke spoor. Daar rijden nu vervoerders als Arriva, Keolis, Breng en RRReis.</p> <p>Het Nederlandse hoofdrailnet, waarover 90 procent van de treinreizigers reist:</p> <p>Voor het landelijke spoor kreeg NS zo"n twee jaar terug al van het kabinet de vergunning voor de periode van 2025 tot en met 2033 opnieuw toegewezen. Dat werd gedaan zonder aanbesteding. De Europese Commissie waarschuwde Nederland meerdere malen dat dit tegen de regels is. Toch ging de nieuwe vergunning dit jaar gewoon in voor NS, die ook nog eens in staatshanden is. De Europese Commissie sleept Nederland voor dit voortrekken nu voor het Europese Hof van Justitie.</p> Wat staat er voor NS op het spel? <p>Als Nederland de zaak verliest kan het worden gedwongen alsnog een aanbesteding te doen voor het landelijke spoornet. Hiervoor moet onder meer worden onderzocht of er andere vervoerders zijn die op het hele of delen van het landelijke spoor treinen willen laten rijden. De kans dat andere vervoerders willen meedingen naar het hele spoornet lijkt nul. Die stap is volgens concurrenten als Arriva en Connexxion te groot.</p> <p>Maar: ze willen wel in fases meer regionale lijnen afsnoepen van het huidige landelijke spoor, oftewel: stoptreinen overnemen van NS. Dit zou voor NS betekenen dat het bedrijf een groot deel van het jarenlange monopolie kwijtraakt (zie het kader onderin dit artikel).</p> Wat betekent dit voor mij als reiziger? <p>Wie bijvoorbeeld dagelijks van Hoorn Kersenboogerd naar Utrecht reist, kan nu in de trein naar Maastricht lekker blijven zitten. Als de lijn van Hoorn naar Amsterdam naar een concurrent gaat, zou dat overstappen en extra in- en uitchecken kunnen beteken. Mogelijk gelden er ook nog verschillende tarieven.</p> <p>Dat druist in tegen de wens van partijen in de Tweede Kamer, waarvan enkele het hele spoor het liefst terugbrengen bij NS. De NS-concurrenten wijzen erop dat reizigers in bijvoorbeeld Amersfoort en Groningen al jaren zonder problemen overstappen. Daar kunnen zij hun regionale treinen ook beter aansluiten op lokale busdiensten.</p> <p>Spoordeskundigen noemen het huidige treinverkeer in Nederland internationale top, op Zwitserland na zelfs het beste in Europa. Tegelijk noemen ze het ook kwetsbaar. Problemen in het ene deel van het land slaan snel over naar andere delen. Bij het "ontvlechten" van het spoornet zou een blikseminslag in Hoorn bijvoorbeeld niet van invloed zijn op reizigers in Maastricht.</p> <p>Om hun gelijk te halen wijst de NS-concurrentie naar Zwitserland: daar is het als een klok rijdende spoorsysteem eerder ook opgeknipt. Hierbij wordt er wel op toegezien dat treindiensten goed op elkaar aansluiten.</p> Op welke lijnen met stoptreinen aast de concurrentie? 2026: 2027: 2028: 2029: 2031: 2032: 2033: Europa ruziet met Nederland over het spoor, moeten reizigers straks vaker overstappen?	查看 4470	荷兰国家广播电视台	2025-07-20 13:02:51 2025-07-20 21:00:18	word
3211939	无图 <p>Passagiers van de toeristenboot die gisteren kapseisde in Vietnam tijdens een storm vroegen de bemanning aan boord om de boot terug naar de wal te brengen. Dat zegt een overlevende van het ongeluk in gesprek met persbureau AP. Volgens hem verzekerde de bemanning de opvarenden dat ze bijna bij hun bestemming waren en dat ze daarom doorvoeren.</p> <p>Het dodental van het ongeluk in de beroemde baai van Ha Long is gestegen naar 38. Ook worden nog meerdere mensen vermist. In totaal waren er 48 toeristen aan boord en vijf bemanningsleden. Alle opvarenden kwamen uit Vietnam.</p> Stortregens <p>Volgens overlevende Dang Anh Tuan werd het tijdens de boottocht ineens heel snel bewolkt en begon het te waaien. Al snel volgden stortregens. "Het regende ongeveer vijftien minuten toen de boot opeens heviger begon te schudden." Tegen AP zegt hij dat tafels en stoelen heen en weer geslingerd werden en dat enkele seconden later de boot kapseisde.</p> <p>"Het water gutste naar binnen en ik verloor mijn oriëntatie. Ik probeerde adem te halen, maar er kwam steeds meer water naar binnen", aldus Tuan. Hij vertelt dat hij een lichtstraal zag, zijn reddingsvest uitdeed en vervolgens naar beneden dook om uit de boot te komen zodat hij daar de lichtstraal kon volgen. "Daarna klom ik op de omgeslagen boot en zocht ik hulp."</p> <p>Bekijk hieronder beelden van de reddingsactie:</p> <p>Het zou nog zeker twee uur duren voordat reddingswerkers bij de boot aankwamen. Zeker elf mensen konden worden gered, waarvan er een later in het ziekenhuis overleed. Een jongen van 14 kon vier uur lang overleven in de stuurhut van het schip, waar nog zuurstof was, voordat hij werd gered.</p> <p>Tuan was samen met elf vrienden op vakantie. Slechts drie van hen overleefden het. Zelf raakte hij lichtgewond.</p> Zoektocht gaat door <p>Inmiddels gaat de zoektocht naar overlevenden door. Tientallen reddingswerkers, maar ook mariniers en politieagenten zijn ingezet. De zoektocht wordt bemoeilijkt door het slechte weer. Daarnaast nadert tyfoon Wipha de regio. Het is reddingswerkers wel gelukt de boot te bergen. De autoriteiten verzekeren dat het slechte weer van gisteren niks te maken heeft met de naderende tyfoon.</p> <p>De baai van Ha Long is een van de meest toeristische plekken van Vietnam. Jaarlijks trekken er tienduizenden toeristen naartoe. Boottochten zijn er bijzonder populair.</p> Correspondent Mustafa Marghadi: <p>"Er zijn wel vaker ongelukken met de boten in de baai van Ha Long, maar daar vallen normaliter nauwelijks slachtoffers bij. Het ergste ongeluk vond plaats in 2011 toen een schip met buitenlandse toeristen "s nachts zonk door een gat in de romp van het schip. Daarbij vielen toen 14 doden.</p> <p>Sindsdien zijn de veiligheidsvoorschriften verscherpt en moeten de schepen in de baai regelmatig inspecties uitvoeren. Dit schip was in januari dit jaar nog geïnspecteerd en kreeg een certificaat voor technische veiligheid en duurzaamheid. Dat de bemanning vragen van passagiers zou hebben genegeerd om terug te keren vanwege het slechte weer, past in het beeld dat het schip in orde was en dat het een inschattingsfout van het personeel was. Al moet de oorzaak uiteraard nog onderzocht worden.</p> <p>Dat in 2011 de veiligheidsvoorschriften aangescherpt werden, kwam door de angst dat toeristen afgeschrikt zouden worden om naar de baai van Ha Long te gaan. Jaarlijks bezoeken vele toeristen uit binnen- en buitenland het Unesco-werelderfgoed. Alleen de kaartverkoop voor boottochten levert de lokale economie 30 tot 40 miljoen euro per jaar op. Er is nog niet bekendgemaakt of de Vietnamese overheid de regels verder zal aanscherpen naar aanleiding van dit ongeluk."</p> Overlevende gekapseisde boot Vietnam: 'We vroegen kapitein terug te keren'	查看 3782	荷兰国家广播电视台	2025-07-20 15:43:40 2025-07-20 21:00:18	word
3211938	无图 <p>De bewoners van een woning in Amsterdam-Oost vonden gisterochtend een koningspython in de gang. Dat meldt de politie op Instagram.</p> <p>De bewoners hadden geen idee waar het dier vandaan kwam en waarschuwden de politie, meldt stadszender AT5. Een agent die gespecialiseerd is in de omgang met reptielen kwam samen met een collega naar de woning, waar het dier "zonder schade aan mens of natuur" werd gevangen.</p> <p>De koningspython is volgens de politie waarschijnlijk ontsnapt uit een terrarium en is overgedragen aan de dierenambulance. De politie hoopt dat de eigenaar van de slang zich meldt.</p> <p>Voor het houden van een koningspython is geen vergunning nodig. Wel is een verklaring van herkomst verplicht voor wie het dier in gevangenschap wil houden.</p> <p>De koningspython is niet giftig, maar kan wel wurgen. Her dier went doorgaans goed aan mensen, waardoor de kans klein is dat het gevaarlijk is. </p> Bewoners Amsterdamse woning vinden koningspython in de gang	查看 950	荷兰国家广播电视台	2025-07-20 16:09:00 2025-07-20 21:00:18	word
