More than 100 dead in Congo floods

Flooding in eastern DR Congo kills more than 100. Why Sierra Leone's first lady is intervening in a miners' strike ? And bible-based polygamy in some churches in South Africa?

The UN says "a double crisis" is facing the DR Congo, as it suffers flooding and mass displacement caused by ongoing conflict.
