Friday, February fourteenth, the UN says at least 22 people have been killed in a village in the Northwest region of Cameroon. Over half of those killed were children. No one has claimed responsibility for Friday’s incident but the opposition parties blame the killing on the government.
Donald Trump vows to withdraw financial support from Planned Parenthood

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump released a
letter last week declaring his commitment to defund Planned Parenthood if it
continues to perform abortions.
Before detailing his
plans regarding abortion, Trump highlighted Clinton's stance on the issue. He
pointed out that Clinton wants to repeal the Hyde Amendment, which prevents
federal taxpayer money from funding abortions. He mentioned that Clinton will
only appoint Supreme Court justices that will support her views regarding the
matter.
Trump vowed that if elected, he will only nominate
pro-life justices to the U.S. Supreme Court. He promised that he will sign the
Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act which prohibits late-term abortions.
He stated that he is committed to "defunding Planned
Parenthood as long as they continue to perform abortions, and reallocating
their funding to community health centers that provide comprehensive health
care for women."
Trump also
promised to turn the Hyde Amendment into a permanent law.
Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of the Susan B. Anthony
List, expressed her approval for
the promises made in the letter.
"Not only has Mr. Trump doubled down on his three
existing commitments to the pro-life movement, he has gone a step further in
pledging to protect the Hyde Amendment and the conscience rights of millions of
pro-life taxpayers," Dannenfelser said.
"For a candidate to make additional commitments
during a general election is almost unheard of. The contrast could not be
clearer between the two tickets," she added.
Last May, pro-life advocates hailed Trump's move to appoint pro-life
congressional aide John Mashburn as a key domestic policy advisor. Mashburn has
previously worked with pro-life lawmakers such as Senate Republican leader
Trent Lott and North Carolina Sen. Thom Tillis.
In an interview on the Brody File last
February, Trump expressed his belief that Roe v. Wade can be overturned.
"It's been very strongly decided but it can be changed," the
candidate said. Trump has been known to be pro-choice before his candidacy. The
Ted Cruz campaign has previously warned against trusting Trump with regards to
abortion.

Cameroonian scammer arrested in Montreal (canada
The Sûreté du Québec announced Wednesday the arrest of an alleged fraudster specialist of a scenario called "Black money scam", in which victims are invited to participate in the cleaning of soiled banknotes, then are robbed during the operation. Cyrille Ngogang, 49 years old, was caught red-handed in downtown Montreal Tuesday afternoon. He appeared in court this morning to be charged with fraud and breach of commitment. The man is not in his first trouble with the law: he was previously arrested by the SQ on 19 January for charges related to the same scheme, and had been able to resume its freedom under strict conditions pending his trial. There are several variants of the 'Black money' scenario, but all involve a so-called batch of cash that has been stained with a dye or colouring substance. Scammers ask their victim to provide money to clean the hoard.
