Patrick Chinamasa pledged to ease indigenisation laws in his first post Mugabe budget

Zimbabwe's finance minister Patrick Chinamasa has presented the country's first budget since Robert Mugabe was ousted, pledging economic reforms. Liberia's Supreme Court puts an end to a legal battle that's been holding up the country's presidential election runoff.
