Uganda students keep tension high over fees hike

Student leaders at Uganda's top university are planning to protest against a hike in tuition fees. Makerere University's administrators have offered a meeting to discuss the matter, but it is yet unclear whether students' leaders will attend. Last week's demonstrations over the same issue led to violent clashes with police forces deployed to secure the protests. We speak to journalist Dear Jeanne who is following the events live from Kampala.

In Ethiopia, inter-communal tensions rise in many non-Oromo cities, and in some areas, the National Defence Force has deployed soldiers. We speak to William Davidson from International Crisis Group, who tells us how does an anti-government protest suddenly morph into communal clashes.

We hear from the mothers who are taking the issue of security of Parisian banlieues in their own hands, organising night patrols in Villeneuve-Saint-Georges, a poor suburb of the French capital Paris.
