Al-Shabab have carried out an attack on a base of the African Union Transition Mission in Somalia, housing Ugandan troops. The base is located around 100km from the capital, Mogadishu. The militant group said they captured the camp and killed dozens of ATMIS soldiers, but there's been no independent confirmation. We hear from Kenya's Nancy Karigithu, who is in the running to become the first African woman to head the International Maritime Organisation. Thousands of demonstrators gathered yesterday in the Malian capital, Bamako, to demand the departure of the UN mission in the country, known as MINUSMA. And Uganda's parliament has passed a bill increasing paternity leave from four to seven days. MPs said they got the idea from neighbouring Kenya, where male working employees get two weeks of leave.
