Guinea-Bissau: The day after the attack
Calm has returned to Bissau, a day after the attack on the main government building.
A day after an attack on the main government building in Guinea-Bissau, all is calm on the streets of the capital, but for how long? President Cissoko says it was an attempt on his life because of his fight against corruption and criminality. But is that all there is to it?
Also, ten days after the coup in Burkina Faso, we hear what life is like for people displaced by the insurgency that sparked it.
Plus, remembering the plants that kept us alive for millennia. We hear from 'the plant hunter' in Zimbabwe.
