In tonight's edition: Africa says it's time the world sees it at the right size. The African Union has backed a campaign to replace the centuries-old Mercator map, which shrinks the continent, with the more accurate Equal Earth projection. Also, Tanzania's election campaign officially begins. Plus, Nigeria bans the export of raw shea nuts for six months, aiming to become a global supplier of refined shea butter and skincare products.
