Description

Somaliland, a breakaway region of Somalia, will hold its general election tomorrow. The incumbent president, Muse Bihi Abdi, is seeking re-election. Somaliland says it would like to be recognised by the international community. Why isn't it recognised and what will the elections mean for the region?

Also we'll get reaction as Nigeria allows women free access to c-sections.

And we'll meet one of the world's smartest mathematicians, from Cameroon!
