Pope Francis denounces 'economic colonialism' on visit to DR Congo
In tonight's edition: The pope denounces the poison of greed driving conflicts and exploitation of the African continent. That message goes down well with the tens of thousands cheering his arrival in DR Congo. Also, Liberian President George Weah rejects criticism that he's out of touch and sets his sights on a second mandate in October's election. Finally, a deadline for Nigerians to deposit old currency is extended, but the swap to new denominations and push for more cashless transactions causes frustration and long queues at banks.
