(260913) -- CONGJIANG, Sept. 13, 2026 (Xinhua) -- An aerial drone photo taken on Sept. 2, 2026 shows Pan Xianfeng (2nd L) and Peng Hanping (1st R) escorting students home after school in Wuying Village on the border between south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region and southwest China's Guizhou Province. Deep in the mountains on the border between south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region and southwest China's Guizhou Province, Wuying Village is far from the township central school. To solve the problem of children having to travel long distances to school, the Wuying teaching site has been retained to this day. This semester it has only two teachers, 56-year-old Pan Xianfeng from Guizhou and 29-year-old Peng Hanping from Guangxi, and 10 students, making it a "micro-primary school." Due to its remote location and harsh conditions, few teachers are willing to teach here for long. Pan applied to transfer here in March 2020 from a better-equipped rural school in Guizhou and Peng followed in September 2023 from a Guangxi primary school. The two, from different provinces and belong to different generations, work in close coordination to keep the school running. Beyond the classroom, they have volunteered at the village night school, teaching local residents literacy and Mandarin, broadening their perspectives and paving way for better livelihoods. "Even with only one student, the teaching site must continue," Pan said firmly. Peng added, "It is all worthwhile so long as the children can go to school nearby, no matter how difficult the work gets." (Xinhua/Yang Wenbin)

Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna (C) attends a church service at the All Saints Cathedral, ahead of the Linda Mwananchi (protect citizens) political rally in Nairobi on September 13, 2026. A heavy police presence was deployed in Nairobi for a rally by a rising opposition star on Sunday, following a wave of political violence in recent weeks. Edwin Sifuna has emerged as the biggest threat to President William Ruto ahead of the latter's bid for re-election in August 2027. Sifuna, 44, has built momentum by tapping into widespread anger over corruption and political violence, though others argue he is too young and inexperienced for the top office. His rally began with a church visit in central Nairobi early Sunday, with hundreds of rowdy supporters already gathered outside and a large number of police officers maintaining a perimeter, AFP journalists saw.
