Whilst overall inflation in Nigeria is running at 18%, food prices are rising even faster. Matty Ukhuegbe Osaro runs The Fish Lady restaurant in Lagos, and discusses the impact on her business. And Bismarck Rewane, chief executive of Financial Derivatives Company, assesses the health of the Nigerian economy. Also in the programme, women across the globe are leaving their jobs and sometimes careers because they are unsupported at work when they go through the menopause. The 大象传媒's Ivana Davidovic asks whether mandated menopause leave might redress the balance. Entrepreneur Elon Musk is set to outline the rollout of his Starlink internet via satellite scheme to the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. We get analysis from the 大象传媒's technology correspondent, Rory Cellan-Jones. Plus, we examine the future of the office in a post-pandemic world, with Liviu Tudor, president of the European Property Federation.
