South Africa's 'new face' of Afro Folk music
Bongeziwe Mabandla combines popular and traditional music to create a new sound
South African singer, Bonge-ziwe Mabandla has been described as the face of Afro Folk music.
He combines popular and traditional music with neo-soul and other vibes in his native Xhosa language.
At least 14 people have been killed and many others wounded in an attack by armed men on a village in Nigeria's north-western Zamfara state according to Nigerian police.
The Oxford Union has been criticised, following an incident where a blind student was reportedly forcefully removed from a debating chamber.
