US President Biden is in Angola for what is likely to be the final foreign trip of his presidency. It鈥檚 his first visit to Sub- Saharan Africa and it's part of a promise the president made, during the US-Africa Leaders Summit in 2022, to travel to the continent.

Also, we'll hear hearing from the Mozambican opposition leader, Venancio Mondlane, as protests continue over election results

And who is Maxim Shugalei and what's he doing in Africa?
