Funerals held for victims of Niger wildlife park attack

France has paid tribute to six young humanitarian workers whose bodies were flown into Paris’s Orly airport from Niger on Friday. One of the two Nigerien victims was laid to rest back home. All eight were killed by suspected jihadists at a wildlife park on August 9. In DR Congo, we assess security concerns at Virunga National Park where scores of kidnappings have seen visitor numbers recently plummet. And in Abidjan our reporters meet a local film crew revisiting the story of Ivory Coast's Abbé people and their early 20th Century struggle against French colonialism.

Produced by Tommaso Mazzanti.
