Ghana’s anti-corruption chief resigns unexpectedly

Ghana’s anti-corruption tsar Martin Amadu has unexpectedly resigned, citing interference and a lack of freedom to do his job. He was appointed as Special Prosecutor two years ago amid high expectations for his tenure.

As the UN refugee agency says a full-scale humanitarian crisis is unfolding in Tigray, we speak to Fesseha Tessema, a former Ethiopian diplomat who now advises the region’s TPLF-led government.

Plus we meet Blessing Chitapa, the 18-year-old Zimbabwean-born winner of the talent show The Voice UK.
