Sudan: Sadiq al-Mahdi’s legacy

Mohanad Hashim of the Sudan Radio and Television Corporation looks back on the life of Sadiq al-Mahdi. Sudan’s last democratically-elected prime minister has died of coronavirus at age 84.

Plus, the latest from Ethiopia. Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed confirmed that the country's army has been instructed to begin an operation to take control of the Tigrayan capital Mekelle.

And in Liberia, Jonathan Paye-Layleh returns to visit dozens of research chimpanzees abandoned on islands close to Monrovia.
