  • The exhumed remains of Burkina Faso's beloved ex-president Thomas Sankara, whose 1987 murder shocked the West African nation, were laid to rest at a ceremony in the capital Ouagadougou on Thursday. Nigeria's presidential hopefuls signed a peace pledge promising to resolve grievances through the courts arising from what could be Nigeria's closest election in decades. Plus, the U.S. Congress has appropriated more than $112 billion in aid to Ukraine since Russia's invasion one year ago.
