I Gave My Kidney to a Stranger

We speak to a man who donated a kidney to a stranger after a viral campaign

Robert Leibowitz is a 60 year old man from New Jersey who decided to wear a t-shirt to Disney World advertising his need for an O positive kidney donation - and a number to call if anyone could help. Someone answered and incredibly, he found a match. We brought together Robert and the man who donated his kidney - Richie Sully - to tell us how it happened. Also, we speak to different language services at the BBC to get their take on US President Trumps's speech at Davos. And, we report on the people fleeing from Cameroon to Nigeria.
