Inquest shows how governments enable Fulani jihadists in Nigeria

Madagascar

Andry Nirina Rajoelina, president of Madagascar, speaks at the COP27 U.N. Climate Summit, Tuesday, Nov. 8, 2022, in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. Madagascar’s Parliament has passed a law allowing for the chemical and in some cases surgical castration of those found guilty of the rape of a minor. It has prompted criticism from international rights groups but has also found support from activists in the country who say it’s an appropriate deterrent to try and curb a “rape culture.” (Credit: Peter Dejong/AP.)
