"I have received threats from hired assassins," Prof Xulu tells the BBC after he was publicly lambasted by the Zulu King Misizulu and challenged to a stick fight. The professor also says he has lodged a complaint with the police in #SouthAfrica 🇿🇦 https://t.co/5zNb7DfLhr

@daddyhope That's so sad. Gone far too soon. My deepest condolences to all the family. I have fond memories of working with Lewis in both Zimbabwe and London. He was a truly excellent journalist. May his soul rest in peace 🙏

Very disappointed with #AirSenegal. Spent the whole day at Dakar airport. No information until flight abruptly cancelled after 10 hours. Lots of angry people trying to get to #Banjul #Freetown and #Conakry

Ça me fait mal au coeur, presque à chaque fois que j'entends des témoignages sur Air Sénégal, c'est en négatif. Une compagnie nationale doit refléter les ambitions du pays. Un de points clés à améliorer: l'expérience client.
