SocietyUp to 20 years in jail for repurposing cocoa land in Ghana

Ghana’s parliament is taking tougher action against the sale or repurposing of land used to grow cocoa. The measure protects farmland devoted to one of the country’s most important crops, with violations carrying a possible prison term of up to 20 years. Elsewhere, the Democratic Republic of Congo is preparing to open its largest Ebola treatment facility yet. A deeply moving Rwandan film is also helping energise the country’s cinema scene.
