0:01:13 > 0:01:17Welcome to Outside Source.
0:01:17 > 0:01:19Leaders of South Africa's governing ANC party are meeting
0:01:19 > 0:01:24to decide the future of President Jacob Zuma.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27This is where it's happening - in Pretoria - and it's likely
0:01:27 > 0:01:29they're asking him to step down.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32Mr Zuma faces a number of corruption charges and ANC president
0:01:32 > 0:01:36Cyril Ramaphosa says the issue is causing "disunity and discord".
0:01:36 > 0:01:39The leaders have been locked in talks for hours now,
0:01:39 > 0:01:43but as South African Radio host points out,
0:01:43 > 0:01:45these are tricky waters to navigate...
0:02:03 > 0:02:05Milton Nkosi has this update from Pretoria
0:02:05 > 0:02:10on where things stand now.
0:02:10 > 0:02:17I am just standing outside the hotel where the National League executive
0:02:17 > 0:02:21committee is to meet to decide President Zuma's fate. All we know
0:02:21 > 0:02:28is they are deliberating on what decision to take on President Zuma's
0:02:28 > 0:02:34future. We know that yesterday the president of the ANC Cyril Ramaposa
0:02:34 > 0:02:41said that the matter will be finalised today. We are waiting and
0:02:41 > 0:02:47we know that inside the meeting there are many ANC leaders who have
0:02:47 > 0:02:52called for President Zuma to be recalled from his position. There is
0:02:52 > 0:02:54a proportional representation electoral system here and sell
0:02:54 > 0:03:00public, so people who vote in a general election for the party, not
0:03:00 > 0:03:05the individual, like they do in America. So here they vote for the
0:03:05 > 0:03:09ANC, they win the election and they appoint President Zuma to go to be
0:03:09 > 0:03:16the candidate for presidency. They will be calling him back, replacing
0:03:16 > 0:03:20him with Cyril Ramaposa, but it is not yet confirmed, that is what we
0:03:20 > 0:03:24wait to hear.Some may be worried wondering why Mr Zuma is refusing to
0:03:24 > 0:03:37go.President Zuma is reported to be refusing to go because
0:03:37 > 0:03:42constitutionally he can be in power until 2019, so the ANC's election
0:03:42 > 0:03:48cycle for its own leaders is out of sync with the country's electoral
0:03:48 > 0:03:53cycle. In other words, the elections for the general population here is
0:03:53 > 0:03:58coming in about 18 months' time, whereas the ANC in December already
0:03:58 > 0:04:04elected a new leader. So now you have two centres of power, there is
0:04:04 > 0:04:09President Zuma at the Government office as president of the public,
0:04:09 > 0:04:15then you have Cyril Ramaposa at party headquarters, being the boss
0:04:15 > 0:04:19of President Zuma, so we are waiting to hear what the decision they have
0:04:19 > 0:04:26taken tonight to end all of this waiting where the country is
0:04:26 > 0:04:32waiting, business people are waiting and the EEA -- ANC are waiting for
0:04:32 > 0:04:37the announcement.Thank you. Stay with the BBC, we will bring you it
0:04:37 > 0:04:40when it comes.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42It appears the Winter Olympics has helped thaw tensions
0:04:42 > 0:04:44between North Korea and the United States.
0:04:44 > 0:04:54I want to show you this article in the Washington Post.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03A dramatic political shift from only FUD is the go.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson was asked about it.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09Here's what he said.
0:05:09 > 0:05:17As to the comments about potentially having parks, it is too early to
0:05:17 > 0:05:22judge. As we have said, it is up to the North Koreans to decide when
0:05:22 > 0:05:26they are ready to engage with us in a sincere way, a meaningful way.
0:05:26 > 0:05:32They know what has to be on the table for conversations.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35Well, what we have seen from the North Koreans is a charm
0:05:35 > 0:05:37offensive in Pyeongchang during these games.
0:05:37 > 0:05:43You may have seen some of these pictures on the weekend.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45This is Kim Jong-Un's sister, Kim Yo-Jong.
0:05:45 > 0:05:49She has been part of a delegation sent to the Games by her brother,
0:05:49 > 0:05:54and she has been seen at a number of events.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56She is always smiling.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58She met with South Korea's President Moon Jae-in.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00This was in Seoul on Saturday.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02She invited him for talks in North Korea.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04If that were to happen, it would be the first meeting
0:06:04 > 0:06:09of Korean leaders in more than a decade.
0:06:09 > 0:06:17Following that meeting, Moon Jae-in spoke to Mike Pence.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20The pair are said to have agreed to terms about engaging
0:06:20 > 0:06:22further with North Korea.
0:06:22 > 0:06:29Let's take a look at what was said.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32Earlier, I asked Barbara Plett Usher
0:06:32 > 0:06:38what exactly Mr Pence means by "maximum pressure"...
0:06:38 > 0:06:43What he said was a little bit what Secretary Tillerson offered last
0:06:43 > 0:06:47year. He said let's get into the same room, we can talk about
0:06:47 > 0:06:51whatever, we can talk about the shape of the table, just breaking
0:06:51 > 0:06:56the ice, getting to know each other, but nothing substantive for the
0:06:56 > 0:07:01first talks. It sounds a little bit like what Mr p is saying. He says we
0:07:01 > 0:07:06can talk, but there will be no rewards for the talk unless the
0:07:06 > 0:07:11North Koreans are willing to do important things like talk about
0:07:11 > 0:07:16denuclearise in the peninsula, getting rid of the nuclear weapons,
0:07:16 > 0:07:21taking steps in that direction. Until that happens, there will be no
0:07:21 > 0:07:25easing of sanctions, no aid, no investment, but we can talk. That is
0:07:25 > 0:07:28what it would look like to have a strict sanctions programme continue
0:07:28 > 0:07:34but alongside about the in the same room discussing.It doesn't seem
0:07:34 > 0:07:39like quite a turnaround, from just a few days ago where we hear that Mike
0:07:39 > 0:07:44pence was skipping dinner so he can avoid the North Koreans to a point
0:07:44 > 0:07:47of possibly, even if it is just talking about weather, being in the
0:07:47 > 0:07:56same room.Certainly the messaging seems to be quite different and you
0:07:56 > 0:08:00have had for example the successful North Korean charm offensive with
0:08:00 > 0:08:05Kim Jong-un sister, smiling, being wined and dined by the South
0:08:05 > 0:08:11Koreans, watching events. With them being in the same area as Mike
0:08:11 > 0:08:15pence, he was avoiding eye contact. You have the atmosphere created and
0:08:15 > 0:08:19you have the South Koreans who want to try and build on this something
0:08:19 > 0:08:23more significance and they have been talking to the Americans about it.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27It seems off the back of that conversation and the optics and
0:08:27 > 0:08:34dynamics of what happened at the Olympics is that what was decided.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37According to Mike Pence, the north Koreans would be told that they are
0:08:37 > 0:08:41not good to get anything for the talks would you talk to us or the
0:08:41 > 0:08:46US, you will get any reward unless you talk about getting rid of your
0:08:46 > 0:08:53nuclear weapons. The Web attempt to talks about it, it sounded as if the
0:08:53 > 0:08:59South Koreans would hold the summit first, to which Moon Jae-in was
0:08:59 > 0:09:05invited, and the back of that, if the North Koreans were interested,
0:09:05 > 0:09:07potentially the Americans may hold talks will stop that is something
0:09:07 > 0:09:11the South Koreans have been pressing the north to do.Thank you very much
0:09:11 > 0:09:13for that.
0:09:13 > 0:09:14Oxfam's deputy chief executive has resigned over
0:09:14 > 0:09:18the handling of a sex scandal involving aid workers.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20The alleged misconduct happened in Haiti back in 2011.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22It came to light when this report was published
0:09:22 > 0:09:26by the Times newspaper last week.
0:09:26 > 0:09:34The article accuses Roland van Hauwermeiren,
0:09:34 > 0:09:36who was Oxfam's Haiti director at the time, and others,
0:09:36 > 0:09:40of using prostitutes at a villa rented by the charity.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42Oxfam were in Haiti as part of the relief effort
0:09:42 > 0:09:46after an earthquake in 2010.
0:09:46 > 0:09:55More than 200,000 people were killed in the disaster.
0:09:55 > 0:10:03Today, Penny Lawrence stepped down saying...
0:10:11 > 0:10:13This former Oxfam employee in Haiti says she raised
0:10:13 > 0:10:19concerns at the time.
0:10:19 > 0:10:26There was a lot of rumours on the ground about management and leaders
0:10:26 > 0:10:35exploring the locals, sexually and in other ways to get jobs, to get
0:10:35 > 0:10:43good standing. These were ongoing rumours that would come to me
0:10:43 > 0:10:50through the drivers and other employees. So on many occasions, I
0:10:50 > 0:10:55would share those rumours with my boss.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58Oxfam launched its own investigation into the claims 2011.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00It led to four people being sacked and three others resigning,
0:11:00 > 0:11:04including Mr van Hauwermeiren.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06Today, the charity's chief executive admitted changes in the organisation
0:11:06 > 0:11:10hadn't gone far enough.
0:11:10 > 0:11:18Straight after Haiti, Oxfam took forceful step. We committed to, a
0:11:18 > 0:11:21whistle-blowing liner that brings the person not into the country
0:11:21 > 0:11:25level, it straight through to our headquarters, we have increased the
0:11:25 > 0:11:31training of our staff significantly and we have taken a range of steps
0:11:31 > 0:11:35to improve the selection and management of our staff. They have
0:11:35 > 0:11:39not been sufficient and that is why we have accepted that we have to go
0:11:39 > 0:11:42further and we have made commitments to go further and we have started
0:11:42 > 0:11:47bad work.That is the response there.
0:11:47 > 0:11:51Amidst the scandal, there's also the separate issue of funding,
0:11:51 > 0:11:54because Oxfam received £32 million from the UK Government last year.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56Today, the charity was summoned to explain why that
0:11:56 > 0:11:57support should continue.
0:11:57 > 0:12:01Pollsters at YouGov have been gauging public opinion on this.
0:12:01 > 0:12:12Let me bring you this Tweet.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16Will Grant is in Port-au-Prince, and gave us this view on how people
0:12:19 > 0:12:23there are reacting to this news.
0:12:23 > 0:12:27There are lots of people here who would argue that in recent years it
0:12:27 > 0:12:31might not make a huge difference in the sense that one of the key
0:12:31 > 0:12:36complaints here, not just about Oxfam, but many aid agencies, is
0:12:36 > 0:12:40that the vast sums of money that were donated in the wake of the 2010
0:12:40 > 0:12:44earthquake never made it onto the ground and the big aid agencies
0:12:44 > 0:12:48require such huge operating costs, that the money is then not the
0:12:48 > 0:12:52distributed to local partners and does not make it to the people.
0:12:52 > 0:12:58Naturally, if a big chunk of money is taken away from Oxfam, that will
0:12:58 > 0:13:05hurt its programmes, Haiti included. The general feeling is of anger
0:13:05 > 0:13:12towards Oxfam and of great distrust. People are not prepared to talk at
0:13:12 > 0:13:15the moment, they worried about what might happen to them, those who used
0:13:15 > 0:13:19to work for the organisation, they are fearful of retribution post-op
0:13:19 > 0:13:26we have been struggling to get people to talk on camera about this
0:13:26 > 0:13:31and worry what the scandal will mean for them as employees and former
0:13:31 > 0:13:35employees.Thank you to will grandfather.

0:13:55 > 0:13:59Both leaders were optimistic that an agreement regarding
0:13:59 > 0:14:02a new power-sharing executive can be reached in the coming days.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04Northern Ireland has been without a devolved assembly
0:14:04 > 0:14:10for more than a year.
0:14:10 > 0:14:15That is after the political coalition collapsed previously.And
0:14:15 > 0:14:19while some differences remain, I believe that it is possible to CD
0:14:19 > 0:14:24cases of an agreement, there is the basis, and it should be possible to
0:14:24 > 0:14:28see an executive up and running in Northern Ireland very soon.The
0:14:28 > 0:14:32differences that exist between the DUP and Sinn Fein are not
0:14:32 > 0:14:36insurmountable and we are hopeful that those two parties can come to
0:14:36 > 0:14:39an agreement and then include other parties because it is our strong
0:14:39 > 0:14:44view that an inclusive executive including as many parties as
0:14:44 > 0:14:51possible would be more sustainable and beneficial for the country.

0:16:30 > 0:16:35return to massacres witnessed in the area almost 20 years ago. That is
0:16:35 > 0:16:43when tens of thousands were killed in ethnic clashes. We will hear from
0:16:43 > 0:16:50two correspondence. First who is with the police patrol on the lake.
0:16:50 > 0:16:55It is a perilous journey from the border. Some of these people are
0:16:55 > 0:17:00using vessels but I'm not very safe and some cases the lake is rough. We
0:17:00 > 0:17:06have had reports of bowls like this one capsizing.
0:17:06 > 0:17:11That is our reporter. Now to another reporter on the shores.
0:17:11 > 0:17:16They tell us when they leave home, they have to leave in a hurry so
0:17:16 > 0:17:23they grab what ever they can do is start their new life, so that could
0:17:23 > 0:17:28be food, mattresses, clothes, it even livestock like cows and goats.
0:17:28 > 0:17:34This is to help them to be able to have a hot meal but also start their
0:17:34 > 0:17:38new lives because they do not know how long it will be before they can
0:17:38 > 0:17:45get back home. This is the point where the refugees crossing over
0:17:45 > 0:17:51officially enter the reliever system. Anyone claiming to be a
0:17:51 > 0:17:55refugee is given a blue wristband. This allows them to be able to get
0:17:55 > 0:18:01onto buses and trucks heading on to the bigger refugee settlement. That
0:18:01 > 0:18:07way they will be able to get food, water, medication, shelter and even
0:18:07 > 0:18:16a plot of land where they can settle down with their families. Uganda is
0:18:16 > 0:18:21posting 1 million refugees from South Sudan, Rwanda, Burundi and the

0:18:48 > 0:18:51President Trump has promised what he's calling the biggest

0:18:52 > 0:18:55Announcing his budget plans, he said he wanted to spend
0:18:55 > 0:19:00$1.5 trillion on roads, highways, ports and airports.
0:19:00 > 0:19:06But only $200 billion will come from public funds.
0:19:06 > 0:19:12Joe Miller joins us now from New York for more.
0:19:12 > 0:19:20Is this all about?We have been hearing about this for months and
0:19:20 > 0:19:25months, the drug administration has been promising a big announcement on
0:19:25 > 0:19:31infrastructure -- trompe administration. All parties in
0:19:31 > 0:19:36America agree on this, but America's's bridges, roads, they are
0:19:36 > 0:19:40crumbling and need more investment. There was a big campaign promise of
0:19:40 > 0:19:45Donald Trump to pour money into this, and where they are not aligned
0:19:45 > 0:19:49is where the money will come from. To take's announcement does not
0:19:49 > 0:19:54remedy that. There are only 200 billion coming from Washington is
0:19:54 > 0:20:00self, federal funds, and that is a drop in the ocean. The rest will
0:20:00 > 0:20:04have to come through the private sector are from cities and states,
0:20:04 > 0:20:08and the thing is cities and states, they say they do not have the money
0:20:08 > 0:20:12and it is harder for them to borrow money than the federal Government.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15They are much more restricted when it comes to that. They are arguing
0:20:15 > 0:20:19they will never be able to make up with the shortfall that will get
0:20:19 > 0:20:26them to $1.5 trillion in investment. Could any of those projects that Mr
0:20:26 > 0:20:33Trump's mentioned, will they ever get done? Will they ever get built
0:20:33 > 0:20:39if he uses this statement of expecting private funds, investors
0:20:39 > 0:20:45to come up with the money? I suppose that is the 1.5 trillion
0:20:45 > 0:20:49question. You do not have to go far from where I am sitting in a
0:20:49 > 0:20:54downtown New York to find some think the Gateway project which is an
0:20:54 > 0:20:57infrastructure project that will update the well ways across the
0:20:57 > 0:21:01Northeast corridor and that stalled because of a fight over funding
0:21:01 > 0:21:10between the states and Washington. Who knows? Maybe Trump with his
0:21:10 > 0:21:16rhetoric and Twitter account will be able to coerce both the private
0:21:16 > 0:21:18sector and cities and states to put more money behind the structure
0:21:18 > 0:21:23projects, but it is remains to be seen.
0:21:23 > 0:21:27Interesting one, one that was a big part of the campaign trail. Let's
0:21:27 > 0:21:29stay with business now.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32The entertainment arm of the Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba has signed
0:21:32 > 0:21:34a deal with Walt Disney to show thousands of its animations
0:21:34 > 0:21:35on its streaming service.
0:21:35 > 0:21:37Disney shut its own streaming service in 2016.
0:21:37 > 0:21:44Monica Miller in Singapore has more.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47My knees the Chinese will get their fill of Winnie the to and Elsa from
0:21:47 > 0:21:55Frozen. They signed a deal with Disney to stream their animated
0:21:55 > 0:22:01works. They announced that they would not say how much this would
0:22:01 > 0:22:08be, that it will be streamed on the entertainment stream. They will
0:22:08 > 0:22:11release over 1000 Disney episodes. It comes after Disney has been
0:22:11 > 0:22:16trained to get into the mainland and they did have a venture that lasted
0:22:16 > 0:22:22that opened in 2016, it was the companies Disney online content that
0:22:22 > 0:22:29was not under a licensing deal but it lasted five months. It is just
0:22:29 > 0:22:32unclear as to why authorities have pulled the plug on it. They are
0:22:32 > 0:22:36hoping that this time they may have better luck, and to give you an idea
0:22:36 > 0:22:43of how large the audience is for this, it has a better following than
0:22:43 > 0:22:49Netflix, it had 17 million members. The Chinese video streaming platform
0:22:49 > 0:22:55goes to 580 million devices. Alibaba has a similar love licensing deal
0:22:55 > 0:23:09with other channels.
0:23:09 > 0:23:12Let's turn to Tonga now, where a state of emergency has been
0:23:12 > 0:23:15declared after one of the biggest storms to ever make
0:23:15 > 0:23:21landfall in the tiny South Pacific Island kingdom.
0:23:21 > 0:23:25This is the satellite image of Cyclone Gita -
0:23:25 > 0:23:27a category-four storm - as it barrelled towards Tonga.
0:23:27 > 0:23:28It made landfall on Monday.
0:23:28 > 0:23:33It's now moving towards Fiji.
0:23:33 > 0:23:38These are some of the pictures that are coming in on social media.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41You see some damage.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44This was the scene earlier.
0:23:44 > 0:23:49Damage to buildings, and trees down.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52Strong winds picking up at the capital Nukualofa.
0:23:52 > 0:23:59We know there have been gusts recorded of 231 kilometres.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01These are some of the pictures coming in from there.
0:24:01 > 0:24:09People hunkered down in evacuation centres as the storm intensified.
0:24:09 > 0:24:13A little bit of electricity that is still there, but we have heard that
0:24:13 > 0:24:19power was cut to the entire main island off Tonga.
0:24:19 > 0:24:21And I want to show you this.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23A group of women waiting out the storm by singing.
0:24:23 > 0:24:24The video has gone viral.
0:24:24 > 0:24:34Let's listen in.
0:24:35 > 0:24:45THEY SING IN UNISON
0:24:47 > 0:24:55So some singing in the midst of the storm.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58Former president Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama
0:24:58 > 0:25:07unveiled their official portraits.
0:25:07 > 0:25:11Here's Michelle's, alongside her portrait.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14Here's Mr Obama's.
0:25:14 > 0:25:22The former President explained why he chose Kehinde Wiley for the job.
0:25:22 > 0:25:27I was always struck by whenever I saw his portraits was the degree to
0:25:27 > 0:25:34which they challenged our conventional views of power and
0:25:34 > 0:25:42privilege and the way that he would take extraordinary care and
0:25:42 > 0:25:50precision and vision in recognising the beauty and the grace and the
0:25:50 > 0:25:55dignity of people who were so often invisible in our lives and put them
0:25:55 > 0:26:06on a grand stage.Another half an hour of Outside Source to come. Do

0:26:12 > 0:26:13stay with us on the BBC. Your next UK forecast is coming about half an
0:26:13 > 0:26:18hour, but at this time we go beyond our shores and take a look at the
0:26:18 > 0:26:21weather happening elsewhere in the world, starting in the Pacific with
0:26:21 > 0:26:25this area of cloud, a tropical storm on the Philippines. We come back to
0:26:25 > 0:26:30that because there is a bigger tropical cyclone, a more powerful
0:26:30 > 0:26:34weather system in the South Pacific, you see the area of cloud and the
0:26:34 > 0:26:39spec right at the middle of it, the island of Tonga, right underneath
0:26:39 > 0:26:46the cyclone with winds gusting in excess of 150 mph and flooding rain
0:26:46 > 0:26:50as well, and extremely dangerous situation. Tuesday, this will pull
0:26:50 > 0:26:55away westward so the situation will improve, but we have to wait and see
0:26:55 > 0:27:00what impact there will have been. The system may strengthen as it
0:27:00 > 0:27:04edges westwards in the coming days, but overwater rather than impacting
0:27:04 > 0:27:09the land. In Australia, this over the next few days will pull in
0:27:09 > 0:27:13towards the south-eastward storms. It is about the heat at this time of
0:27:13 > 0:27:16year, temperatures about a goal up in Perth, near 40 Celsius in Alice
0:27:16 > 0:27:23Springs. Destination Sydney, the temperature comes down a little bit
0:27:23 > 0:27:27this week, temperature will spike in Perth on Thursday and she can seek
0:27:27 > 0:27:31there is plenty of sunshine. Eastern China will see temperatures edging
0:27:31 > 0:27:36up after a chilly spell, lots of wind in South Korea, Pyeongchang for
0:27:36 > 0:27:41the Winter Olympics, wind a feature, and on the satellite picture, you
0:27:41 > 0:27:44can see this tropical storm on the Philippines. This is the rain, a
0:27:44 > 0:27:49soaking through central and southern parts of the Philippines in the
0:27:49 > 0:27:53coming days. In Tokyo, the temperature is a bit up and down, in
0:27:53 > 0:27:57Hong Kong, the only way is up. After the cold spell, getting back into
0:27:57 > 0:28:01the low 20s. That will feel very different. A wet start across
0:28:01 > 0:28:05eastern part of the USA and Canada, but the weather system for Tuesday
0:28:05 > 0:28:10is pulling out into the Atlantic, a bit of fine weather behind, for some
0:28:10 > 0:28:17of the eastern USA, it will turn less cold in the coming days. At
0:28:17 > 0:28:19times there will be showers into Vancouver and Seattle, and there is
0:28:19 > 0:28:24a chance of getting a few showers in LA over the next couple of days
0:28:24 > 0:28:28before the sunshine and warmth comes back in the week. This is the
0:28:28 > 0:28:32picture for your reply Tuesday the stops heavy snow affecting parts of
0:28:32 > 0:28:35the south-east, a weather system from the Atlantic running into cold
0:28:35 > 0:28:40air in France, so more snow on here, but ahead of the weather system,
0:28:40 > 0:28:45there is a clear resort, says sunshine into Germany and Austria
0:28:45 > 0:28:50and Switzerland. There is fine weather across southernmost parts of
0:28:50 > 0:28:53Spain, though not particularly wobbles up in the UK, there will be
0:28:53 > 0:28:57weather systems bringing spells of rain and it will often be windy and
0:28:57 > 0:29:06less cold by the end of the week. More in half an hour.

0:30:21 > 0:30:23it's coming to an end - but at this stage he's
0:30:23 > 0:30:26refusing to resign - we'll look at the options for him
0:30:26 > 0:30:27and the governing ANC.
0:30:27 > 0:30:29Could the Winter Olympics bring with them a thaw in relations
0:30:29 > 0:30:32between the US and North Korea, as Washington hints that
0:30:32 > 0:30:33it's willing to talk?
0:30:33 > 0:30:35How much will it cost to rebuild Iraq after
0:30:35 > 0:30:38the onslaught of fighting IS?
0:30:38 > 0:30:41The government has come up with a figure - it's massive -
0:30:41 > 0:30:50we'll find out why it will take $90 billion.

0:31:06 > 0:31:14Welcome to Outside Source...
0:31:14 > 0:31:14New York police say President Trump's daughter-in-law
0:31:14 > 0:31:18at her apartment in the city.
0:31:18 > 0:31:20The letter was addressed to the President's son.
0:31:20 > 0:31:22The police and Secret Service are investigating.
0:31:22 > 0:31:30Nada Tawfik is following the story in New York.
0:31:30 > 0:31:37Hello, what do we know?Well, basically we know that she opened
0:31:37 > 0:31:41the letter at 10am in New York, and when she opened it, she found a
0:31:41 > 0:31:46white powder. Now, she was immediately decontaminated on the
0:31:46 > 0:31:50scene, along with two others, by firefighters who responded, but they
0:31:50 > 0:31:53didn't show any kind of physical reaction to the powder, and in fact
0:31:53 > 0:31:58when it was later tested, the New York police department said it came
0:31:58 > 0:32:04back as nonhazardous, so really a scary moment there for her, but it
0:32:04 > 0:32:08ended up being nonhazardous. Now, she along with her mother-in-law and
0:32:08 > 0:32:11another person were taken to hospital just for evaluation, and
0:32:11 > 0:32:15now the New York police department along with the Secret Service are
0:32:15 > 0:32:18investigating the full incident. Good to hear it was nonhazardous.
0:32:18 > 0:32:25Thank you for that update.
0:32:25 > 0:32:26New York prosecutors have filed a lawsuit
0:32:26 > 0:32:28against The Weinstein Company, alleging that the studio
0:32:28 > 0:32:30failed to protect staff from Harvey Weinstein.
0:32:30 > 0:32:33The film producer is facing dozens of allegations of sexual
0:32:33 > 0:32:39abuse, including rape, but denies non-consensual sex.
0:32:40 > 0:32:45How much of a surprise was this particular move by the New York
0:32:45 > 0:32:51prosecutors?Well, we always knew that Harvey Weinstein was under
0:32:51 > 0:32:55investigation, and this
0:32:55 > 0:32:56investigation by the New York Attorney General's Office is ongoing
0:32:56 > 0:33:03still. They have been going through the records of the company, speaking
0:33:03 > 0:33:09with employees. It has been pretty horrific. There are allegations of
0:33:09 > 0:33:13what we have heard before in the press and media reports. But to have
0:33:13 > 0:33:18them outlined in this detail has been quite interesting, to say the
0:33:18 > 0:33:25least. So for example they allege that Harvey Weinstein had his female
0:33:25 > 0:33:29employees facilitate his sexual conquests. He basically forced them
0:33:29 > 0:33:34to make sure that he had personal time on his schedule for sexual
0:33:34 > 0:33:38activity, and if they tried to complain about his behaviour towards
0:33:38 > 0:33:43them as well, they would often get reprimanded. So human re-sources in
0:33:43 > 0:33:48one case forwarded a woman's complain to Harvey Weinstein, so
0:33:48 > 0:33:52instead of her getting protection, she instead got more retribution by
0:33:52 > 0:33:55Harvey Weinstein. The resource stories about how he would tell
0:33:55 > 0:34:00them, I will kill you, I will kill your family, and threats to women as
0:34:00 > 0:34:03well who complained about sexual advances towards them and what they
0:34:03 > 0:34:07were being asked to do in their employment. This was an ongoing
0:34:07 > 0:34:10investigation. We knew that the authorities were looking into the
0:34:10 > 0:34:14company, so not too much of a shock that it came out.I want to bring
0:34:14 > 0:34:26out a tweet from Slave, the online magazine. So fierce will have far
0:34:26 > 0:34:32reaching consequences, if, in fact, they are successful.Yes some of the
0:34:32 > 0:34:43wine steam company has been trying to battle -- the Weinstein Company,
0:34:43 > 0:34:47that sale was really imminent, so that is why the Attorney General
0:34:47 > 0:34:52decided to have the court intervene with this lawsuit to try to put a
0:34:52 > 0:34:56stop to those sale negotiations because he was concerned victims
0:34:56 > 0:35:04would not get proper compensation, that employees would not get
0:35:04 > 0:35:08protection. And those who they alleged to be response will should
0:35:08 > 0:35:13not make windfall profits from a cell like this. It could well
0:35:13 > 0:35:16scupper the deal but we'll have to see how far this lawsuit goes and
0:35:16 > 0:35:27what kind of a final it is with the investor group.
0:35:29 > 0:35:30Iraq is asking the international community
0:35:30 > 0:35:31for almost $90 billion.
0:35:31 > 0:35:33It's to help it rebuild after years of war against
0:35:34 > 0:35:35so-called Islamic State.
0:35:35 > 0:35:40The city of Mosul right here is the hardest-hit area.
0:35:40 > 0:35:44These pictures show the destruction there.
0:35:44 > 0:35:47The city was taken by IS in 2014.
0:35:47 > 0:35:49The Iraqi forces recaptured it with the help of Iranian-backed Shiite
0:35:49 > 0:35:52militias and a US-led coalition in July 2017.
0:35:52 > 0:35:54Victory came at a massive cost - just how massive
0:35:54 > 0:35:56is a question the government needed to answer before a week-long
0:35:56 > 0:35:58conference that started today, which is seeking aid
0:35:58 > 0:36:08for the country's reconstruction.
0:36:08 > 0:36:16With the help of the World Bank, it came up with $88.2 billion.
0:36:16 > 0:36:20The conference is hosted by neighbouring Kuwait.
0:36:20 > 0:36:27The head of the delegation in Iraq for the International Committee
0:36:27 > 0:36:30of the Red Cross is Katharina Ritz - she's there and explains why
0:36:30 > 0:36:35this money is necessary.
0:36:35 > 0:36:41If you are in Iraq, and new work on the ground, and you see the
0:36:41 > 0:36:46destruction, what happened over these last years, but not just the
0:36:46 > 0:36:49infrastructure destruction, it is also the rebuilding of the
0:36:49 > 0:36:54community, which needs to be invested, and I think in this sense
0:36:54 > 0:36:58it is a massive amount, and I think it is not something which is being
0:36:58 > 0:37:05done over one year. But the needs are extremely vague, and it is, at
0:37:05 > 0:37:12this time we have to get it right. Yes?I think many would agree that
0:37:12 > 0:37:15the need is great, as we looked at those pictures, but I just want to
0:37:15 > 0:37:19bring out a tweet coming in from the US president, Donald Trump. He said
0:37:19 > 0:37:22this will be a big week for infrastructure, talking about the
0:37:22 > 0:37:24US.
0:37:29 > 0:37:36I think that illustrates the difficulty you may have getting
0:37:36 > 0:37:43nations to commit to giving money at this point to Iraq.It is definitely
0:37:43 > 0:37:46one of the big challenge is to have countries coming back to Iraq and
0:37:46 > 0:37:53interesting and helping to rebuild the country. On the other hand, the
0:37:53 > 0:38:00Iraqi people have gone through years of conflict. The community has been
0:38:00 > 0:38:06torn apart. We are the National committee of the Red Cross, we are
0:38:06 > 0:38:13definitely committed to contribute to long-lasting and hopefully a
0:38:13 > 0:38:17peace winning process in Iraq. Now that is the moment where we need to
0:38:17 > 0:38:20engage.But are you getting a feeling that people are ready to put
0:38:20 > 0:38:25their hands in their pockets, some lines I was really on social media,
0:38:25 > 0:38:31it tells into it, even Kuwaitis don't want their government to
0:38:31 > 0:38:35invest in Iraq. You would avenge and they would have a stake in it, being
0:38:35 > 0:38:42geographically so close.I think all of us have a stake in it. For the
0:38:42 > 0:38:47Iraqi people, to help them recover, to have a sustainable approach, to
0:38:47 > 0:38:52get back to the origins, to their homes, to their houses, I think all
0:38:52 > 0:38:57the neighbours and the neighbours beyond have a stake in Iraq and
0:38:57 > 0:39:08beyond. This is where we are here to call for looking maybe, behind the
0:39:08 > 0:39:13numbers, we have to look at the people. We can talk about
0:39:13 > 0:39:17infrastructure, the money, but we also have to talk about the people's
0:39:17 > 0:39:21lives, for the children, the next generation who are today without
0:39:21 > 0:39:29schools and houses and toys. That is where we have to invest today.
0:39:29 > 0:39:32Don't forget, you can get much more detail on our top stories
0:39:32 > 0:39:33on our website.
0:39:33 > 0:39:35There is full coverage on our top story -
0:39:35 > 0:39:38those crucial talks in South Africa to decide the fate
0:39:38 > 0:39:41of President Jacob Zuma.
0:39:41 > 0:39:44Follow the link in the article to go to the Africa live page to get
0:39:44 > 0:39:49all the updates as they happen.
0:39:49 > 0:39:51Since the birth of modern medicine, human life
0:39:51 > 0:39:52expectancy has almost doubled.
0:39:52 > 0:39:54But living longer often comes at a cost, both
0:39:54 > 0:39:55physically and financially.
0:39:55 > 0:39:57Some health care systems are struggling to treat
0:39:57 > 0:40:01ageing populations.
0:40:01 > 0:40:03Instead of treating the diseases of ageing, why not ageing itself?
0:40:03 > 0:40:05That's what a small group of pioneering scientists
0:40:05 > 0:40:11have been trying to do.
0:40:11 > 0:40:17I watch my step mother died. There was nothing dignified or beautiful
0:40:17 > 0:40:25about that, he forgot who he was caught not to we were -- my
0:40:25 > 0:40:29stepfather. My view is that anyone who tells you ageing is beautiful
0:40:29 > 0:40:32and something to embrace is either being dishonest with you or
0:40:32 > 0:40:42dishonest with themselves. I see no beauty in it.It somehow doesn't
0:40:42 > 0:40:46make sense, you know, we are beautifully adapted by natural
0:40:46 > 0:40:50selection, everything in our bodies works fantastically well, and every
0:40:50 > 0:40:55system you look at, you kind of understand its purpose. And then you
0:40:55 > 0:40:59look at ageing, and you think what's that for? What is the purpose of
0:40:59 > 0:41:08ageing, why would natural selection let the adults just fall apart?
0:41:08 > 0:41:12Ageing is something all of us, rich and poor, in developed nations,
0:41:12 > 0:41:17developing nations, it is something all of us face, and it is the single
0:41:17 > 0:41:27largest factor that drives human disease and suffering.Before about
0:41:27 > 0:41:3020 years ago, it was really generally accepted that there was
0:41:30 > 0:41:34nothing you could do about ageing. I mean, maybe you could exercise, eat
0:41:34 > 0:41:39a little better, but that's it. And there has really been a revolution
0:41:39 > 0:41:45in science since that time, scientists have found that there are
0:41:45 > 0:41:49actually genes that control the rate of ageing, and if you change these
0:41:49 > 0:41:55genes, you can really slow down the rate of ageing and extend life span
0:41:55 > 0:42:00a lot.There is a great community of scientists right now, who are all
0:42:00 > 0:42:05looking at different aspects of ageing, including telomeres and
0:42:05 > 0:42:10mitochondria and protein shake and many others, and I think that they
0:42:10 > 0:42:14are all onto the right way, if you like, to approach ageing. That
0:42:14 > 0:42:17ageing is all of these things, it is affecting all of the systems in our
0:42:17 > 0:42:24body.We at Unity, while we believe there are multiple mechanisms of
0:42:24 > 0:42:29ageing, we choose to focus on a particular Makas is that we think is
0:42:29 > 0:42:35uniquely amenable -- particular mechanism to creating drugs to
0:42:35 > 0:42:38impact it. It works like this, at conception you are a single cell,
0:42:38 > 0:42:42that's you. Over the arc of your life, new, the cell, will divide as
0:42:42 > 0:42:50many as 50 times. And as you, the cell, approach 50 cell divisions,
0:42:50 > 0:42:55you will encounter some form of cellular stress, and you will stop
0:42:55 > 0:42:59divining forever. This emergency brake is super important. It is an
0:42:59 > 0:43:02anti-cancer system. So you don't want to mess with the emergency
0:43:02 > 0:43:08brake. However, these cells when they pull the emergency brake, do
0:43:08 > 0:43:17something very bad. They begin making all these molecules that they
0:43:17 > 0:43:22secrete, which drive features of ageing, and no one knew what would
0:43:22 > 0:43:26happen if you simply eliminated the cells. And when we did this,
0:43:26 > 0:43:32something astonishing happened. These mice had a profoundly extended
0:43:32 > 0:43:35period of something called health span. This is the period of time
0:43:35 > 0:43:44that these animals live free of chronic diseases of ageing. They had
0:43:44 > 0:43:48increased heart function, they had increased bone deposition, the head
0:43:48 > 0:43:53reduce to arthritis. They had registered cataract formation. They
0:43:53 > 0:44:01even behaved like younger animals and advanced age. As a side effect
0:44:01 > 0:44:04they did live longer but we think that is the boring part. The really
0:44:04 > 0:44:07cool part is that a bunch of these things that you think of as
0:44:07 > 0:44:13inescapable aspect of ageing, they didn't occur.So we are at a point
0:44:13 > 0:44:16right now where we are seriously talking, for the first time, and I
0:44:16 > 0:44:20have been doing this ageing research for a long time now, we are talking
0:44:20 > 0:44:25for the first time about clinical trials with drugs that could slow
0:44:25 > 0:44:29down the ageing process. That is something incredibly exciting and
0:44:29 > 0:44:34something I didn't really expect to see in my lifetime.Think about
0:44:34 > 0:44:41this: most biotech products treat a disease you've never heard of that
0:44:41 > 0:44:45someone you do not now suffers from. Everyone knew now suffers from
0:44:45 > 0:44:52ageing. Everyone. -- everyone you know. Our drugs, you don't take them
0:44:52 > 0:44:58everyday, you might them once a year, and what this means is that
0:44:58 > 0:45:04you get to have a market size that includes all human beings, OK, and
0:45:04 > 0:45:07you don't have to make lots of the drugs. So as a consequence these
0:45:07 > 0:45:12could be the cheapest drugs ever made. Now investors don't really
0:45:12 > 0:45:17like to hear that, but when you talk about the total cost of health care,
0:45:17 > 0:45:21and who is ultimately going to pay for health care, particularly in
0:45:21 > 0:45:28nation states that use single-payer, like the UK, this is a powerful idea
0:45:28 > 0:45:31to reduce health care costs. Normally you don't talk about new
0:45:31 > 0:45:38drugs taking costs out. These will be drugs that take costs out.To me,
0:45:38 > 0:45:43and to most of us in the field, the ultimate goal is to have a really
0:45:43 > 0:45:49healthy life, and a useful life, where you don't become frail and
0:45:49 > 0:45:57unable to function. You stay physically young for a long time,
0:45:57 > 0:46:05you know? And then you pass away.My prediction is that people, their
0:46:05 > 0:46:09median life span will probably be, if you are an American white male,
0:46:09 > 0:46:15rather than being 79, might be 103. And many people you know, rather
0:46:15 > 0:46:23than dying at aged 83, demented, catheterised in their bed, muttering
0:46:23 > 0:46:28to themselves, they would die at 106, on the tennis court, while
0:46:28 > 0:46:34winning. Or killed by a jealous lover at 113.
0:46:34 > 0:46:40Food for thought, right? Very interesting about ageing. Now a
0:46:40 > 0:46:43place with a lot of light.
0:46:43 > 0:46:45More than a 1.5 million tourists have joined Brazilians
0:46:45 > 0:46:47at the world's largest carnival in Rio de Janeiro.
0:46:47 > 0:46:49The run-up to this year's event has been controversial,
0:46:49 > 0:46:51the city's mayor was there for the opening but he's
0:46:51 > 0:46:54been under fire for slashing funding to the top samba schools.
0:46:54 > 0:46:56Our South America correspondent Katy Watson reports
0:46:56 > 0:47:06from Rio de Janeiro.
0:47:06 > 0:47:11On it anime beach, the crowds danced in defiance. This street parade was
0:47:11 > 0:47:16dedicated to the man many people hate. Marcello Trotta Vella, the
0:47:16 > 0:47:18city's Mayor, a conservative evangelical who says he is not a fan
0:47:18 > 0:47:26of the carnival. That in itself is a cardinal sin for many Brazilians.
0:47:26 > 0:47:32TRANSLATION:He turns his back on popular culture, every cultural
0:47:32 > 0:47:36activity that does not interest his church will stop we would put up
0:47:36 > 0:47:41with this, we won't let it happen. Which is whyto some people this is
0:47:41 > 0:47:46the time to make a noise. For many, it is a time to dress up and show
0:47:46 > 0:47:52off, or just have fun with loved ones. And some costumes came with a
0:47:52 > 0:47:57deeper message than you think. TRANSLATION:I am dressed up as a
0:47:57 > 0:48:01clown because the mayor is a liar, is a joke. Dressing up as a way to
0:48:01 > 0:48:04be critical of politics that Brazilians don't go out on the
0:48:04 > 0:48:07street in protest but they should. They don't know the power they could
0:48:07 > 0:48:12have.Amid a wave of violence in the city, 17,000 military lease were on
0:48:12 > 0:48:20hand. -- military police force top security concerns, though, were not
0:48:20 > 0:48:27stopping the tourists from having fun.I am carrying my little old
0:48:27 > 0:48:31camera instead of my iPhone, but yes, otherwise I have felt great
0:48:31 > 0:48:36everywhere, no problems.As long as you read through all the fluff, it
0:48:36 > 0:48:41is a relief great place. And yes, it is risky, but if you are smart, stay
0:48:41 > 0:48:46alert, not alarmed.While the street party is true of the crowds, the big
0:48:46 > 0:48:52money and the extravagances in the Sambu room. But there was a big
0:48:52 > 0:48:56point when the big samba schools questioned whether they would get
0:48:56 > 0:49:00this far, after the mayor cut their funding by nearly 50% faster most
0:49:00 > 0:49:05found a way round it, but it ruffled their carnival feathers. Despite the
0:49:05 > 0:49:09troubles, the show goes on, and it is as decadent as ever. Some of the
0:49:09 > 0:49:12top performers have not been stopped from having a little fun and getting
0:49:12 > 0:49:16their own breakfast up some of the samba schools are using Brazil's
0:49:16 > 0:49:20dirty politics as a theme of their parade. Amid all these Buchel and
0:49:20 > 0:49:23glitter, carnival has managed to skilfully address a more serious
0:49:23 > 0:49:27side of Brazil too. As the samba fades out, the politics will get
0:49:27 > 0:49:33louder. It is countdown to October, which will see one of the most
0:49:33 > 0:49:39uncertain presidential elections in decades.
0:49:39 > 0:49:41UK-led team of scientists are about begin an expedition
0:49:41 > 0:49:43to explore an ecosystem hidden for tens-of-thousands of years.
0:49:43 > 0:49:46The team is headed for Antarctica and the Antarctic
0:49:46 > 0:49:48Peninsula where a giant iceberg broke off last year.
0:49:48 > 0:49:50This is it in orange.
0:50:00 > 0:50:02This is it in orange.
0:50:02 > 0:50:04It was 6000 square kilometres.
0:50:04 > 0:50:07You can see how it compares to the city of London,
0:50:07 > 0:50:12here in light grey, at 1500 kilometres.
0:50:12 > 0:50:14By calving off it exposed the seabed underneath it.
0:50:14 > 0:50:15That's what team is hoping to explore.
0:50:15 > 0:50:21Our science correspondent Victoria Gill reports.
0:50:21 > 0:50:27A new perspective on a 6,000 square kilometre swathe of floating ice.
0:50:27 > 0:50:32So the iceberg is 150 kilometres long, 50 kilometres wide,
0:50:32 > 0:50:37and will be about 150 metres deep.
0:50:37 > 0:50:40You will be able to see the first 20-30 metres above the water,
0:50:40 > 0:50:43and everything else is underneath.
0:50:43 > 0:50:45The trillion-tonne, A-68 iceberg is gradually drifting away
0:50:45 > 0:50:51from the Antarctic continent and into the sea.
0:50:51 > 0:50:54It's these ice-filled waters and the sea floor beneath them that
0:50:54 > 0:50:59scientists are now eager to explore.
0:50:59 > 0:51:02In the British Antarctic Survey vessel, the James Clark Ross,
0:51:02 > 0:51:04a team will spend three weeks studying the marine life that has
0:51:04 > 0:51:06been locked away here for millennia.
0:51:06 > 0:51:08They've described it as a treacherous but urgent mission.
0:51:08 > 0:51:10There are likely to be new species discovered,
0:51:10 > 0:51:12as researchers seek out the creatures that make their home
0:51:12 > 0:51:17beneath the vast ice sheet.
0:51:17 > 0:51:20We have no idea what's living underneath these huge ice shelves.
0:51:20 > 0:51:23We assume it is animals that are specially adapted to life
0:51:23 > 0:51:26without green food and vegetarian, so we have a lot of
0:51:26 > 0:51:29scavengers and carnivores.
0:51:29 > 0:51:31So we expect animals like in the deep sea,
0:51:31 > 0:51:35that doesn't have light as well.
0:51:35 > 0:51:37But the team also hopes to understand the processes that
0:51:37 > 0:51:39caused the iceberg to break away.
0:51:39 > 0:51:42This could reveal more about just how this fragile,
0:51:42 > 0:51:44frozen wilderness at the bottom of the world will change
0:51:44 > 0:51:46as the climate warms.
0:51:46 > 0:51:52Victoria Gill, BBC News.
0:51:53 > 0:51:55A new Peter Rabbit film is out.
0:51:55 > 0:52:03If you haven't seen it, here's a taste of it.
0:52:03 > 0:52:05Most of us are aware of the tale of the resourceful
0:52:05 > 0:52:08rabbit and his adventures in Mr McGregor's vegetable garden.
0:52:08 > 0:52:11But this film is getting a lot of unwanted attention.
0:52:11 > 0:52:15That's because of this scene.
0:52:15 > 0:52:17When a group of rabbits pelt Mr McGregor's nephew -
0:52:17 > 0:52:20allergy sufferer - with the berries he's allergic to.
0:52:20 > 0:52:28Here's one reaction.
0:52:28 > 0:52:30From the New York Times.
0:52:30 > 0:52:31"I was really afraid about the one
0:52:31 > 0:52:33part where they shot the blackberries,"
0:52:33 > 0:52:35said Brayden Drey, 7, who has severe allergies.
0:52:35 > 0:52:38"I was upset because he had to use his EpiPen."
0:52:38 > 0:52:41That counteracts allergic reactions.
0:52:41 > 0:52:43Well, Sony Pictures and the filmmakers have apologised.
0:52:43 > 0:52:50In a statement, they said...
0:52:50 > 0:52:53Dr Pooja Newman started a petition to Sony Pictures for that apology.
0:52:53 > 0:53:02She spoke to the BBC earlier.
0:53:02 > 0:53:07To give blatant deliberate harm to another human being known to have a
0:53:07 > 0:53:10food allergy is something that should not be depicted in children's
0:53:10 > 0:53:14movies. The food allergy, the leading and deliberate intentional
0:53:14 > 0:53:19harm to another person who has a life-threatening condition, which is
0:53:19 > 0:53:22a disability and a restriction on their lifestyle is something that
0:53:22 > 0:53:25absolutely should have the spotlight, and Peter Rabbit the
0:53:25 > 0:53:29movie has done that, and we have a unified voice of people that
0:53:29 > 0:53:35collectively want to stamp out this practice. Amongst our children, and
0:53:35 > 0:53:42in a society at large. I don't think slapstick comedy really cut it in a
0:53:42 > 0:53:46kids movie, and to be actually showing such footage to children,
0:53:46 > 0:53:52where children are the most at risk of a life ending we action from
0:53:52 > 0:53:57accidental or deliberate exposure to an allergen that they have serious
0:53:57 > 0:54:03allergic reactions to, it actually shows the ignorance in our worldwide
0:54:03 > 0:54:07community for the suffering, the struggle and the anguish that people
0:54:07 > 0:54:11with anaphylaxis and their loved ones go through on a daily basis.
0:54:11 > 0:54:16And it has absolutely disregard and disrespect for the people that have
0:54:16 > 0:54:24lost their lives.I want to update you on this story now, we have been
0:54:24 > 0:54:28following it throughout the hour. Leaders have said Africa Posavec
0:54:28 > 0:54:33governing ANC Patiala meeting to decide the future of President Jacob
0:54:33 > 0:54:37Zuma. A couple of lines coming in from the South African broadcasting
0:54:37 > 0:54:44Corporation. The ANC leader Cyril Ramaphosa has left the ANC national
0:54:44 > 0:54:50exit meeting to inform President Zuma the party decision. And it is
0:54:50 > 0:54:54that the ANC gave President Jacob Zuma 48 hours to resign as head of
0:54:54 > 0:54:58state on Monday, after an eight hour meeting of the party's top leaders.
0:54:58 > 0:55:02I leave you with those headlines on Outside Source.
