Boko Haram massacre in Nigeria and the Irish shopworkers strike
Hundreds of people left dead in Gwoza, Nigeria and the Dunnes store workers who walked out.

First, we hear about Boko Haram militants driving into Gwoza in north-east Nigeria in 2014, to begin an assault which left hundreds dead.
Next, the Irish shopworkers who went on strike after refusing to handle South African goods.
Then, it鈥檚 25 years since Nato bombed the Serbian state TV station in Belgrade.
Plus, Norway鈥檚 biggest industrial disaster.
And, Brazil鈥檚 iconic egg-shaped telephone booth.
