TANZANIAN PROTESTS OVER THE CLOSING OF STORE

Angry staff and suppliers from one of East Africa's leading retailers, Uchumi Supermarkets, have forced the closure of one of its stores in Tanzania.
More than 300 people barricaded the store in Dar es Salaam amid fears they would not get paid.
There have been reports that the chain, which is based in neighbouring Kenya, is closing some of its shops.
Financial woes have already forced Uchumi to recently shut some of its outlets in Uganda.
The struggling retailer has said talks are under way to resolve the dispute.
