In Burundi, President Nkurunziza's plan to run for a third term stirs up a second day of unrest. Top activists say they've been roughed up by police and that several protesters have been killed by the ruling party's youth wing. Meanwhile, in Togo, following the presidential vote over the weekend, it looks like incumbent Faure Gnassingbe has secured an unassailable lead. However, opposition figures are already bracing for a fight.


We also speak to Djibouti's ambassador to France about the hundreds of refugees fleeing war in Yemen and the prospects for political reform in his country.
