Tributes Paid To Rwanda Genocide Hero

Newsday

Available for over a year

Tributes have been pouring in Rwanda after the death of Zula Karuhimbi, a herbalist who saved the lives over dozens of people during the 1994 genocide. We go to the Democratic Republic of Congo, where the BBC’s Alastair Leithead reports from the volatile and Ebola-stricken region of Beni. And in Madagascar, around 10 million people are expected to vote and pick a new leader, today.
