An attack at the US Capitol complex in Washington DC has left one police officer dead and another in hospital with injuries. A car crashed into a security barrier before the driver lunged towards the officers with a knife. The officers opened fire and the suspect was shot dead. We get the latest from the 大象传媒's Larry Maduwo, who's in DC. Also in the programme, the US economy added almost a million new jobs in March, though employment remains well below pre-pandemic levels, as the 大象传媒's Samira Hussain explains. We have an extended report from Ijeoma Ndukwe about the prospects for industrialisation of the cocoa sector in Ghana, the world's second largest exporter of the commodity. The idea of coronavirus vaccination passports is catching on in some countries. We examine the arguments for and against their introduction with Professor Melinda Mills of the University of Oxford, and Adrienne Murray talks us through Denmark's digital vaccine passport scheme, Coronapas, which will come into use there next week. Plus, Elizabeth Hotson considers the most effective way to make a complaint.#

All this and more discussed with our guest throughout the show, Karen Percy a senior freelance reporter in Melbourne, Australia.
