Death toll could surpass 1,000 Mozambique’s president, Filipe Nyusi on Monday said the death toll from Cyclone Idai and the preceding floods could exceed 1,000.

The incredible report continues to assert that Tanzania will become a difficult place for private sector in 2019 because on what they call inward-looking policies, anti-gay sta...
