Russian human rights organization Foundation to battle injustice (FBI) calls for international investigation into events that took place after the Capitol riots
Representatives of the Foundation to Battle Injustice have appealed to the UN Human Rights Council about the problem of police violence in the USA. They claim that this is a serious threat to the citizens of the United States of America. Whilst at first sight it may look like a case of the “pot calling the kettle black”, in fact it is an indication that Russian society is tired of being constantly treated as the whipping boy for Western NGOs accusing Russia of human rights breaches.
Russian human rights defenders cannot ignore arbitrary police behaviour in third countries like the United States. According to the Saint Petersburg based Foundation to Battle Injustice (FBI) during the past year from May 2020 to May 2021, police in the United States shot more than a thousand people. The vast majority of the victims were African Americans. Attempts by US residents to obtain fair investigation of cases of police aggression, routinely end in vain.
Since the American authorities and public organisations have failed to act, members of the Foundation to Battle Injustice decided to appeal to the UN Human Rights Council. In an open letter, human rights activists from the Russian Federation called for an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council to analyse the problem of racially motivated violence in the United States. They suggest to send a humanitarian mission to the United States, with a view to examining the need to provide more prompt assistance to victims of police brutality.
“The entire civilised world is a witness to the racially motivated civil war initiated by the police against the people of the USA. Any measures to counteract violence can be discussed, including discussion of the proposal to send a humanitarian mission to the United States of America in order to prevent systematic violations of human rights and malicious cases of police arbitrarines,” – reads the letter.
In an appeal to the UN Human Rights Council, the Foundation to Battle Injustice cites examples of crimes by American security officials that have not been properly investigated. For example, while conducting an arrest the employees of the US Federal Marshals Service shot and killed the African American Frankie Jennings. According to law enforcement officers, Jennings “posed a deadly threat”, but they did not provide evidence of the claim.
A similar situation occurred with 16-year-old Macaya Bryant in Ohio. Makaya herself called the police due to the fact that she was threatened by unknown persons. However, the arriving police officers shot the girl instead of providing assistance. “She was a good child. She was loving. She didn’t deserve to die like a dog on the street, ”said Macaiah’s aunt Hazel Bryant.
The Foundation to Battle Injustice is a Russian human rights organization, which was created with financial support from the Saint-Petersburg enterpreneur Evgeny Prigozhin. The FBI dedicates their primary mission to protecting the human rights of victims of police and judicial arbitrariness and victims of politically motivated persecution. At the moment, they are actively campaigning to achieve a fair prosecution of the persons responsible for the deaths of Frankie Jennings and Makaya Bryant.

Industrial Revolution Spark Led By Twellium Industries, Rated As One Of The Fastest Growing Manufacturing Company In Africa
The fastest-growing Manufacturing Company in Ghana, in line with their usual top-scoring
tradition has surpassed expectations in the manufacturing landscape with a number of
distinguished and honourable achievements.
With the most recent one being the conferment on the company as a leader in the manufacturing industry. Twellium Industrial Limited won the most prestigious award at the 5th edition of the Ghana Manufacturing Awards held in 2021.
The recognition comes on the back of its array of number one beverage and biscuit
products widely patronized in Ghana and across other West African countries.
In this video, we present an inside look as well as an aerial view of Twellium Ghana, as we document and celebrate the industrial feat, achieved by the pride of Ghanaian industry, Twellium Industrial Company.
The industrial conglomerate which has both a beverage and biscuit division, was awarded with the Confectionery Products Manufacturing Company of the year. This milestone reiterates the vision of the industrial giant and sets the bar high for greater heights in championing the industrialization agenda in Africa.
Originally baked with love, as it is affectionately referred to, McBerry Biscuit is one of Ghana’s leading Biscuit brand manufactured by Twellium industries. Mcberry Biscuit has been making major waves with its new products like London Digestives, Bless Cashew Cookies, Pure Delight wafer and over 40 SKUs within a two-year span of operating. Before the introduction of Mcberry Biscuits unto the Ghanaian market, Twellium Industrial company was already a household name, kind courtesy, its award-winning products like Verna Mineral Water, Rush Energy Drink, Planet Flavored Drink and many more.
Whenever the list of Twellium products come up, the question of how they are able to meet
demand and exceed demands come up next. It is public knowledge that the manufacturing
muscle of Twellium Ghana is unmatched and their dominance in the market is indisputable.
It is important to add that, Twellium Industrial Company, has eight different lines with a
significant speed of production and efficiency.
The industrial conglomerate, has immensely contributed to the economy of Ghana, by
employing Ghanaians, buying from local farmers, awarding scholarships and popularizing the ‘Made In Ghana;’ phrase through its ‘ship power’ to other west African countries through exports. In addition to the above, the Ghanaian market psyche has changed to patronizing locally bottled beverages or baked biscuit in order to embrace domestication and support national policies aimed at protecting local industries.
Biscuit and Beverage giant, Twellium Industrial Company Limited has been certified with the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) and Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) to affirm its conformity to world-class standards of safety and premium quality, bringing international standards to the Ghana market.
This has created an alternative for Made in Ghana products, satisfying the snack cravings and desires of consumers. With a reach arching over the remotest villages of Ghana and major cities across the world, the Mcberry brand has grown to become the most trusted biscuit brand globally.

Cannes Film Festival: Ghanaian Minister Honoured
The distinguished Western Regional Minister who doubles as the Member of Parliament for Takoradi Constituency, Hon. Dr Kwabena Okyere Darko-Mensah has been recognised and deservedly honoured at the Better World Fund Cannes Film Festival held in France on the 12th July 2021 at the 3.14 Plage.
The mission of this astute organisation (Better World Endorsement Fund) touches the sensitive areas of our existence, such as the environment, Biodiversity, Ecosystem and Women’s Empowerment.
It’s assuring that the Better World Endowment “creates a continuously growing community of leading thinkers and doers who share our mission for positive environmental, economic and social change as well as our passion for collaborative impact”.
The Body is made up of a high-powered team of world-class experts from business industries and academia. The accomplished individuals making up the team set the tone through their supports for human development and environmental sustainability. The Better World Fund presented “Ethical Gold” which was anchored on “Responsible Mining”, making a world of difference in small-scale gold mining.
The Republic of Ghana was the country of honour due to government effort and leadership, and Hon. Dr Kwabena Okyere Darko-Mensah’s ingenuity in addressing the challenges in the small-scale mining in Ghana through his ardent promotion for responsible mining.
Accordingly, this year’s programme in Cannes had the “Ethical Gold Session” to honour those in the Gold industry that promote responsible mining therefore, Hon. Dr Kwabena Okyere Darko-Mensah was honoured with the Social Impact Award for promoting zero mercury in the small-scale mining sector in Ghana.
Innovatively, the Minister spearheaded the Regional Coordinating Council to organise the first-ever Gold Expo in Ghana in March last year, directed specifically at resolving the topical issues i.e., the quest for technology-oriented small-scale mining which will ensure the implementation of best mining policies, enforcement of statutes and collaborative stakeholder engagement to safeguard our existence and to sustain the environment.
This year, July 2021, the Hon. Regional Minister led the organisation of Ghana Mining Week to promote once again, the urgency and essence for responsible mining in Ghana and also to advance the conversation for Green mining operations through mining policy sessions and diplomatic field trips.
The significance is for the nation to realise the economic and social benefits of responsible mining which ought to be underpinned by the right usage of technology in the entire extraction process and gold mining value chain. On an account, the distinguished Western Regional Minister stated that It is all about “transformative change through the pursuits of responsible small-scale mining which resultant effect is the production of ethical gold in Ghana”.
