The Challenges for Botswana's DUMA BOKO, Sudan's Prospects for Peace? KEMI BADENOCH, Rumble in the Jungle

By MD

Or listen on:

We ask political analyst, ADAM MFUNDISI, about the challenges ahead for Botswana's new president, DUMA BOKO. Adam tells us the country is in an 'undeclared recession' brought about by high unemployment, corruption and lacklustre diamond sales - Botswana's primary source of income.

Sudan's war is notching up alarming superlatives: the world's biggest displacement crisis, the greatest modern-day famine, a humanitarian disaster that has 97% of the country's people in its grip. What began as a war between two generals has now grown into a multifaceted conflict taking in different armed groups as well as community vigilantes. So what are the prospects for peace? A question for Sudanese political economist JAWHARA KANU, who tells us that local communities can play a crucial role in peace initiatives.


DONU opines on fellow Nigerian, KEMI BADENOCH, who's been elected to lead the UK's Conservative Party. What do other Nigerians make of her achievement?

And PATRICK reflects on the 50th anniversary of the Rumble in the Jungle - the heavyweight boxing match between MOHAMMED ALI and GEORGE FOREMAN in Kinshasa. Everyone knows Ali won in the 8th round, but the three-day extravaganza was about more than just boxing.
