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

Ghana’s parliament is tightening restrictions on the sale or repurposing of land used to grow the country’s most important crop. Violations could carry prison terms of up to 20 years. In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, officials are preparing to open the largest Ebola treatment facility the country has ever had. Meanwhile, a deeply moving Rwandan film is helping drive renewed activity across the country’s cinema scene.
