With their new piece "Make It Make Sense" Kimyan Law and Fox focus on one of the most serious humanitarian crises of our time: the mass displacement of people in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo, due to decades of external exploitation of natural resources. Millions are forced to flee their homes, many face uncertainty and a struggle for survival.

Following the haunting track "Coltan," in which Kimyan Law already pointed out the exploitation of this resource-rich country, "Make It Make Sense" continues this approach as a musical statement against displacement, the indifference of the Western world, and structural violence. The artwork, painted by the Kimyan, depicts scenes from the displacement camps in Congo, a visual reference and reminder to a reality that rarely receives public attention.

As with "Coltan," all proceeds from the song will be donated to an organisation that directly supports internally displaced people in Congo.

Jaridani leo tunakuletea mada kwa kina inayotupeleka nchini Kenya ambako Mary Anne Mwangi Katibu Mkuu wa shirika hilo la kiraia linaloendesha Kituo cha watoto cha Priscilla and Angelica Chalks Foundation kilichoko Embulbul, Kaunti ya Kajiado nchini Kenya anaelezea umuhimu wa uhisani. Pia tunaangazia siku ya Wahudumu wa Kibinadamu Duniani tukikuletea ujumbe wa Umoja wa Mataifa unaomulika haki zao, na hali ya usalama nchini DRC.

1.	Leo ni Siku ya Wahudumu wa Kibinadamu Duniani na Umoja wa Mataifa unasema mwaka 2024 ulikuwa mbaya zaidi, baada ya wahudumu 383 kuuawa kote duniani, hasa Gaza na Sudan. Mratibu wa misaada ya dharura wa Umoja wa Mataifa, Tom Fletcher, amesema “Hata shambulio moja dhidi ya mhudumu wa misaada ni shambulio dhidi yeto sote.” Naye Katibu Mkuu António Guterres ameongeza kuwa “Shambulio dhidi ya wahudumu wa misaada ni shambulio dhidi ya ubinadamu hebu tuchukue hatua kwa ajili ya ubinadamu.
2.	Huko Geneva Katika hafla maalum ya kuadhimisha siku hii, Kamishna Mkuu wa Haki za Binadamu, Volker Türk, amewakumbuka waliopoteza maisha, wakiwemo wahudumu 22 waliouawa Baghdad mwaka 2003, na kuongeza “Kamwe hatutaacha kusisitiza kwamba serikali au nchi wanachama wa Umoja wa Mataifa wafanye kazi pamoja kuhakikisha wanatoa fursa ya ufikiaji wa kibinadamu kwa watuwenye uhitaji na kunakuwepo na uwajibikaji wa ukiukwaji mkubwa wa sheria za kibinadamu zikijumuisha ulinzi kwa wahudumu wa kibinadamu na wa Umoja wa Mataifa”. 
3.	Ujumbe wa Umoja wa Mataifa wa kulinda amani nchini Jamhuri ya Kidemokrasia ya Congo, MONUSCO, leo umelaani vikali mashambulizi ya kundi la waasi wa Allied Democratic Forces, ADF kati ya tarehe 9 na 16 Agosti, katika maeneo ya Beni na Lubero, mkoa wa Kivu Kaskazini, yaliyoua raia 52, wakiwemo wanawake na watoto. Mashambulizi hayo yamehusisha utekaji nyara, uporaji, na uchomaji wa nyumba na magari, na kuwaacha wakazi ambao tayari wako katika hali ngumu ya kibinadamu katika mateso zaidi.
4.	Na katika mashinani na ikiwa leo ni siku ya wahudumu wa binadamu, huduma na kujitolea kwa wanachama 270 wa Kikozi cha Polisi cha walinda amani kutoka Ghana wanaohudumu katika Ujumbe wa Umoja wa Mataifa nchini Sudan Kusini (UNMISS), wakiwemo maafisa wanawake 63, ilitambuliwa kwa kutunukiwa Nishani ya Umoja wa Mataifa ya Heshima kwa juhudi zao, zikiwa ni pamoja na kuwalinda raia, kuwezesha uwasilishaji salama wa misaada ya kibinadamu, kukuza haki za binadamu na kujenga amani. Bismark Achaab, Msimamizi Mkuu wa Kitengo hicho anatoa shukrani.

JARIDA LA HABARI ZA UN 19 AUGUST 2025 NA ANOLD KAYANDA

In Donald Trump's perverse ambition to win the Nobel Peace Prize, he is citing his supposed diplomatic victories in ending six conflicts: Armenia-Azerbaijan, Congo-Rwanda, Israel-Iran, India-Pakistan, Thailand-Cambodia and Egypt-Ethiopia. In Episode 292 of the CounterVortex podcast, Bill Weinberg examines each of these examples, and breaks down how claims to have won "peace" are either extremely overstated or (more often) total Orwellian jive. The implication that Russia-Ukraine will be next, as Putin escalates his aggression, puts a hideous crown on the irony.

JARIDA LA HABARI ZA UN 28 AGOSTI 2025 NA ANOLD KAYANDA

Vivian van de Perre’s calling is to help nations transition from conflict to peace. Now the deputy head of peacekeeping in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), she leads a life-saving operation in the rebel-held city of Goma.

“It's tragic and it's unimaginable, but at the same time, people live their lives and they do the best they can, and they remain generous and warm, despite the circumstances that they live in. You go to these places and you see the worst and you see the best, and it's all in one package, and it is just something that really, really touches you. It's not like a regular job.”

A recent peace accord has raised hopes of an end to the violence that has plagued eastern DRC for the past three decades. In this episode, recorded before the peace agreement, Vivian van de Perre reflects on the impact of funding cuts on active war zones, on peacekeeping as a delicate balancing act, and shares why she falls for every place she serves.

“[Losing colleagues is] heartbreaking, and you can't think about it all day long, because it will be so demoralizing you have to keep going. Nobody expects to not come back.”
