About this episode

Over a thousand Sierra Leoneans were recently arrested on the streets of Conakry in Guinea and deported. Sierra Leoneans reciprocated with their own deportation of Guineans. This all resulted in a diplomatic spat between the two countries. We'll get the details.

Also is Kenya really increasing state surveillance of its citizens? We'll hear government response to these claims

And a fresh start for Mali as production begins at the largest non-exploited lithium mine in the world!
