Nigeria: Charges against Sheikh Ibrahim El-Zakzaky dismissed

A court in Nigeria has dismissed charges of inciting violence and unlawful assembly against Islamic Movement of Nigeria Sheikh Ibraheem Zakzaky and his wife. Their arrests had followed deadly violence in Zaria, Kaduna State, between IMN followers and the police.

Plus, President Samia Suluhu Hassan is leading a drive to vaccinate Tanzanians against Covid-19, in a marked break from the policies of predecessor John Magufuli.
