It is extremely
hot here and incredibly there is no air conditioning in the guest
house and very jet-lagged. |
5:58 PM |

Traveled this
afternoon to Zinder. Tomorrow will travel to Inepd supported camp

Just can't sleep
tonight. Last night I had the most horrible dream. Just could not
concentrate all day because of it. |
8:55 PM |
13-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
It keeps replaying
in my head and I can't make it stop. I haven't told '@InepdShane. |
8:57 PM |
13-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShane |
We are now about
to head off. The vehicles are ready and packed. |
5:11 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShane |
For those of you
just following we are doing an explo mission in Niger. |
5:18 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShane |
We are now in the
town of Zinder and we will be away for two days. First we will towards
Yachi. |
5:18 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShane |
Then we will turn
east towards the Chadian border and then loop back Tanout and stop the
night there. |
5:19 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShane |
The country
towards Chad is insecure and we really have to be in Tanout before 5
pm. After dark there are bandits. |
5:20 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShane |
There was rebel
activity in the area a few years ago and it is a bit unclear if this
is still an issue. |
5:21 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShane |
I managed to get
hold of a decent vehicle yesterday. The Inepd vehicle we have here in
Zinder was not suitable for more than a small drive. |
5:22 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShane |
The staff use the
vehicle for traveling to the projects less than 2 hours away. I
managed to source a vehicle from an INGO here. |
5:23 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShane |
The vehicle has
less than 20,000km on the clock and the log books and services are
upto date. I feel a lot safer with this one. |
5:24 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShane |
Today we're
travelling with '@InepdMercedes & Michael Tomasky for the first 2
hours. They will visit some Inepd projects just outside Zinder. |
5:25 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShane |
I feel a little
bad about giving them a bit of a dud vehicle but they will be safe and
it is a safe busy road. |
5:27 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShane |
They can easily
get help from passers by and they can easily call the Inepd base for
assistance. |
5:29 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|

Just getting the
staff together. We have 6 people traveling. Nafissa is a Nutritionist

We have a bit of a
long trip today. We are going towards Chad from Zinder in Niger. |
5:36 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
For the last few
weeks there have been reported displacements of people South East of
Tanout. |
5:37 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
The reasons stated
have been food insecurity and an increase in banditry in the area. |
5:38 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
We are looking to
do a rapid assessment as we feel it is bit insecure to stay too long
in the area and because details are sketchy. |
5:39 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShirley |
This assessment
mission will probably the first of a few is we find evidence of
displacement or major food security problems. |
5:39 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|

Ok '@InepdShane
and the driver Issa have told us to get in the vehicle. We have a long
way to go today. Will tweet later on the way. |
5:41 AM |

|
|
|

Terrible night,
just ghastly in Zinder. The air-conditioner didn't seem to work and I
feel jet-lagged and a wreck. |
5:42 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
We have to go
'@InepdShane has just told us to get in the vehicle. |
5:42 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
We are in the
Niger town of Zinder. We are heading off towards some villages that
Inepd International has been supporting for several years. |
5:43 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
Some of the people
were displaced by insecurity and the drought and have still not
rebuilt their lives. |
5:44 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
It is incredibly
hot we will be traveling about 2 hours outside of Zinder to some small
makeshift villages. |
5:44 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
Inepd has been
supporting 2 schools in the area and some income generation and food
banks. |
5:44 AM |

Travelling with us
is Michael Tomasky and our Inepd Film crew from the communication
department, Brian and Terry. |
5:45 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
At the same time
which has been a little inconvenient is that '@InepdShane and
'@InepdShirley are doing an explo mission. |
5:46 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
Last night they
bored poor Michael to death with story after story of all their
travels and Humanitarian experiences. |
5:47 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
I have come to
conclude that '@InepdShane and '@InepdShirley are both fantasists
after last night. |
5:48 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
We also have a
local Inepd staff member Moussa who will translate for us give us an
overview of the program. |
5:49 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
Moussa works as an
educational extension officer for Inepd in the village we will visit. |
5:49 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
Just hoping in the
car now and looking forward to some air conditioning. |
5:49 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
We have all been
melting away the last two days and to finally have some air-co will be
a godsend. |
5:49 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
Also vital that
Michael looks a little fresh in shots and not sweating profusely.
Could make him look shifty instead is sympathetic. |
5:50 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
Just been informed
by the driver that we have no air-co. '@InepdShane and '@InepdShirley
have the only vehicle with air-co. |
5:50 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
We’ll see about
that. This pair seem intent on sabotaging every high profile publicity
event they can. |
5:50 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShane |
This is weird
'@InepdMercedes has just come over to our vehicle and told
'@InepdShirley to get out. |
5:52 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShane |
This is a bit much
'@InepdMercedes wants the air conditioned vehicle. I am getting out of
the vehicle now to settle this. |
5:53 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
Right, that was
not pleasant at all, but I really had to pull rank on '@InepdShane and
'@InepdShirley |
5:54 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
They even said
they weren’t even going to use the air-co because it increases fuel
consumption. Unbelievable!!! |
5:54 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
This pair were
completely out of order and were not showing any consideration for our
celebrity. |
5:55 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
Right just
changing vehicles. Will talk to you all in an 2 hours when we reach
the villages. |
5:55 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShane |
Little bit worried
now. '@InepdShirley agreed to change vehicles as she is the team
leader for the assessment. |
5:56 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShane |
I feel we should
call it off now. '@InepdShirley insists we should go on. That there
could be people out there in the desert with nothing. |
5:57 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdShane |
I guess the
vehicle can probably manage but don't like taking a risk like this. We
are now heading off. Will tweet when I get the chance. |
5:58 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|

Good luck
'@InepdShane '@InepdShirley on your explo today. I will be following

last night with Michael and all the staff, he had a lot of great
stories. |
7:30 AM |

straight with the road to Yachi and then will turn north east in a
bout two hours. Talk to you then. |

7:35 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|

The village where
we are going is just a few minutes from the turn off. This is one of
the poorest areas in Niger. |
7:36 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
Just arriving now
in a village of Tonouc. |

Great the Inepd
film crew have asked him to take it off and put on an Inepd cap. |
7:41 AM |

Moussa has just
explained that we will walk through the village. Meet with one or two

been able to make a successful return. |
7:43 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|

We are walking
through a village of small square mud brick houses. It is intensily
hot. |
7:43 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
Moussa has stopped
at a house and asked if we can talk to the family. They say yes.
Moussa translates |
7:44 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
There are now many
people gathered around. Michael asks when the family came here. |
7:45 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
The husband Bachir
speaks. He said that arrived 2 years ago from a village further south
when their crop failed. |
7:45 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
They came here
closer to Zinder so he could find work to support his family. |
7:47 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
Bachir says that
there is little work and they have no land or animals. Their life is
very tough now. |
7:48 AM |

|
|

Michael asks the
wife how she manages to feed the family. |
7:48 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
The wife Hadiza
says that she manages to get small money as a dress maker and
repairing clothes. |
7:49 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
She says they have
sent their two youngest children to stay with her sister to stay and
attend school in Zinder. |
7:49 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
She says they have
an older boy who stays and can get some work. He is 13. With all the
children they could not manage. |
7:49 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
I ask if she has
received support from Inepd International. |
7:50 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
Hadiza says that
she was able to buy a sewing machine through an Inepd loan with other
women. |
7:50 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
Would have been
better if Michael asked the question, but he was in shot at least
looking interested. |
7:52 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
I thought we had
enough footage from that family but Michael is still asking questions
even though Brian and Terry have stopped filming. |
7:53 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
I guess Michael
hasn't worked much in front of the camera before very much! |
7:53 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
It is incredible
hot and really the quicker we get this over and done with the better. |
7:54 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
I ask Brian and
Terry to get some general shots of the village and then get a few more
shots with Michael. |
7:54 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
A woman asks me if
I would like to sit down. She asks me to come inside her house. She
obviously can see I am about to collapse. |
7:55 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
I go in. Anything
to get away from the heat. She speaks French and a little English. I
can still remember some high school French so we talk |
7:55 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
She offers me
water. I probably shouldn't take it but I do. It is just so damn hot. |
7:56 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
She says that her
husband is now in Zinder working. She lost a child in 2007 to the
drought. |
7:58 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
She has 2 older
children 6 and 7 and can only afford to send one to school. Her
families life is very tough. |
7:58 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
She asks if I can
help. I say Inepd is here in the village and that I work for Inepd so
I am helping her is some way. |
7:59 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
She tells me I am
good person for travelling all this way to visit her village and
understand their problems. |
7:59 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
Well, time to get
back to the visit. '@InepdKelvin says it's very common for poor people
to ask for things all the time on these field visits |
8:00 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
I am back outside
now. |
8:00 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
I just felt maybe
I could have done more to help her. I would ask for help in her
position, I guess. I didn't even ask her name. |
8:01 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
Where was I, Brian
and Terry have missed a handshake by Michael and an old man. |
8:01 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
They are heading
back, they must have already visited the food bank. I must have been
talking with that lady for quite a while. |
8:02 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|
|
|
InepdMercedes |
Michael seems very
happy with the visit and Inepd International's work. |

to get back to main road and Tanout. |
9:05 AM |
14-Mar-10 |
|

If we get back to

We are really in
the middle of no where and need to get back to a main road. |
9:21 AM |

@InepdMercedes This is important we have broken down. We have given
our route to the Inepd Base we are 25km past Golf8. |
