President Kenyatta calls for national unity in Kenya

Supporters of the re-elected Kenyan president have been celebrating his victory

Supporters of the re-elected Kenyan president, Uhuru Kenyatta, have been celebrating his victory; but several opposition strongholds have seen angry protests. The president has said he wants to reach out to his defeated rival, Raila Odinga, but his party has rejected the election result, complaining of fraud.

Also on the programme, Chinese leader Xi Jinping has urged President Trump to show restraint in his dealings with North Korea. And the female kickboxing champion turned film director Lexi Alexander on the problems of being a woman in Hollywood.
