African Governments Show Improvements But Progress 'Stalls'

Thirty-three out of Africa's 54 countries have shown improvements in the way they are governed over the last four years, research has found.

But the researchers behind the Ibrahim Index of African Governance say progress "is stalling".
The index measures changes in development, human rights, security and economic opportunity.
Mauritius and Cape Verde are the top-ranked countries, and South Sudan and Somalia are at the bottom of the index.
