Africa reacts to Robert Mugabe's death

The ex-president of Zimbabwe Robert Mugabe has died aged 95. He had been receiving treatment in a hospital in Singapore since April. In 2017 he was ousted in a military coup after 37 years in power. The former president was praised for broadening access to health and education for the black majority in Zimbabwe. But later years were marked by violent repression of his political opponents and Zimbabwe's economic ruin. Live from our BBC Africa hub, we will hear reaction and analysis from across the African continent.

Also, the number of people killed by Hurricane Dorian in the Bahamas is expected to rise significantly. So far 30 people have been confirmed dead, but officials say hundreds, possibly thousands, are still missing in the Abacos and Grand Bahama. We'll hear one woman's personal story.
