Kenyan court rules suicide criminalisation unconstitutional

Kenyan court rules suicide criminalisation unconstitutional



Kenya's high court has struck down a law that criminalised the act of attempting suicide. We hear from one of the petitioners who brought the challenge, on why the judge's ruling is important.

Also in the podcast, we revisit the dumpsite in the Ugandan capital, Kampala, that collapsed and killed more than 30 people last August. How is the city managing its waste problem?

And a shop owner tells us about the devastating impact of a fire at one of the biggest open air markets in Ghana, and efforts to rebuild the area.

Presenter: Audrey Brown Producers: Yvette Twagiramariya, Bella Hassan and Sunita Nahar in London. Frenny Jowi was in Nairobi Senior Producer: Patricia Whitehorne Technical Producer: Gabriel O'Regan Editors: Andre Lombard and Alice Muthengi
