]]> Britain will build a cyber crime centre in Nairobi to identify victims of child abuse and stop images of child pornography  being shared on-line,

Its part of a bilateral security agreement signed as British premier Theresa May visits Nairobi.

Theresa May says the cyber crime centre Britain will build in Nairobi will ensure pedophiles have no place to hide.

In the past two years two British men have been sentenced to long jail terms for visiting Kenya and preying on street children.

The centre will help Kenyan authorities deal with the increasing number of child abuse cases.

The security agreement will see  Britain help Kenya with border and aviation security.

Kenya is the last stop the British Prime Minister is making on her three-nation safari that’s taken in South Africa and Nigeria.

]]> British premier Theresa May’s in Nairobi today where she’ll visit British soldiers training Kenyans preparing to fighting Al Shabaab terrorists in neighboring Somalia.

Yesterday she witnessed the signing of bilateral security and economic agreements with Nigeria.

Security plays an important part at the end of the first safari Theresa May has made as Britain’s Prime Minister.

Yesterday she offered Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari help – in the shape of equipment and training – in the fight against Boko Haram terror.

But business is the business of her journey that’s taken her to South Africa, Nigeria and Kenya.

Buhari admitted that Nigeria is nervously watching Britain negotiating its way out of the European Union.

May’s central central message is that however Brexit pans out, it will not affect Britain’s business dealings with Africa.

]]> President Barak Obama was given a standing ovation at the African Union in Addis Ababa today where he announced a raft of new projects the United States would embark on in the continent of his father’s birth.
As the first US leader to address the continental body he ended his two-nation safari with the same spirit of candour and optimism that he started it with in Kenya last week.

US President Barak Obama says he’s confident Africa is marching towards justice and equality.
It’s not a straight line, he says in the giant Chinese-built hall at the African Union headquarters, and sometimes it falters.
But America is with them.
(take in partner clip here)
Obama says Africa must attain justice, respect and human rights in the same way as colonialism was beaten with more than rifles, Americans won their civil rights and South African both black and white triumphed over apartheid.
