Here in the city of Johannesburg, and across the continent, the African hair industry is big business - and there's a lot of money to be made. This is something that one salon owner here, knows very well. He's the subject of our In Focus - and shares with me some of his secrets for succeeding in this competitive market.

Plus, "Building today, a better Africa tomorrow" - that's the slogan of the African Development Bank.  It's a sentiment that's evident in the goals set by second-term president Donald Kaberuka. He says, despite a troubled past and the global economic downturn, the bank today is stronger than ever, and it's poised to give member countries financial support, social resources and so much more. David McKenzie recently caught up with Mr. Kaberuka in Tanzania, and discussed the institution's challenges.
