What happens

Focus on Africa is a BBC news programme broadcast on the international feed of the BBC News channel, and on local partner channels of the BBC in African countries. The programme was presented by Komla Dumor each weekday from its inception until his sudden death, aged 41, in January 2014. The programme includes news, sport and business from across Africa and around the world. The programme was closely related to Dira ya Dunia, an African-focused programme broadcast on BBC Swahili, which noticeably used the same title sequence. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
