23 killed in Nigeria suicide attack - FRANCE 24



First, fresh violence is sweeping across Nigeria. Fifteen people killed in Katsina State while deadly explosions rock the northeastern city of Maiduguri, leaving at least 23 dead. Also, in the DR Congo, talk of a third term for President Félix Tshisekedi is growing louder. As allies openly back the idea, tensions are rising with an opposition that says the constitution must be respected. And in South Africa, tens of thousands of abused children never get the chance to speak in court: too traumatized to testify. Now, an unusual ally is stepping in: specially trained dogs helping young victims find the courage to tell their story.
