Authorities in Senegal are investigating a transnational network of criminals accused of committing henious crimes against children. The police in the west African country say that the network was operating in coordination with a French national who was arrested in France in April last year. The suspects are accused of paedophilia, pimping, rape of minors under 15, sodomy and intentional transmission of HIV/AIDS. And we speak with a founder and director of Kabusa Oriental Choir from Nigeria about their 'Valentine is coming' viral hit song.
