Several soldiers are arrested in Gambia over a foiled alleged coup plot. Authorities say they're in pursuit of three other suspected accomplices. Also in Gambia, a parliamentary committee recommends that the government ban and prosecute an Indian pharmaceutical company accused of causing the deaths of at least 70 children. And in Kenya, a new "hustler fund" has allowed more than 15 million people to access micro-loans.
