Mpumalanga floods leave 20 dead, devastation in their wake 

There are reports emerging of violent clashes between police and opposition supporters in Uganda following presidential elections yesterday. Local media say several people have been killed. There has been tension as the party of the presidential candidate Bobi Wine says the security forces have surrounded his house as votes are counted. This comes as Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni has taken a commanding lead in Thursday's presidential election - well ahead of his main challenger Bobi Wine, whose party has already questioned the credibility of the results. Figures so far give Museveni 75% of the vote, with Wine on 21%, based on returns from 70% of polling stations. The elections were held amid a countrywide internet shutdown imposed earlier in the week. To get a sense of the situation in the country, Bongiwe Zwane spoke to Juliet Nankufa, a Digital Rights Researcher

Calls for resistance in Uganda as President Museveni takes election lead

A recent call for help by a South Africa family whose son died while visiting Zimbabwe, has placed focus on the difficulties involved in repatriating loved ones who die outside their home country. Losing a loved one is a universal pain, but for the millions living in the diaspora, that grief often comes with a double trauma, when families are suddenly thrust into a high-stakes race against time, navigating complex international laws, staggering costs, and the logistical nightmare of bringing a body home for burial. It's a reality many of us avoid discussing at the dinner table until it's a crisis. For a look at what you need to know about the costs relating to the complexities of repatriating the remains of a loved one, Bongiwe Zwane spoke to founder and CEO of Diaspora Insurance, Jeff Madzingo
