Namibian activists hail overturning of law that banned same-sex acts between men

A top court in Namibia has ruled that colonial-era laws banning same-sex relationships were unconstitutional, in a case brought by a local LGBT activist. Also in the programme: Kenyan protesters call for a national shutdown to oppose new tax hikes. We also visit Sierra Leone's capital Freetown, where a chimpanzee refuge is trying to save the threatened apes from the brink. And we meet the man who immortalised Ghana: legendary photographer James Barnor.
