Angola is currently Africa's largest oil producer and China's largest supplier. The current government retains most of the ownership and revenues of the country's only diamond firm. After the end of a brutal 27 year civil war in 2002 Angola is now a middle-income country, on paper at least…But 70% of the population still lives below the poverty line with a life expectancy of 41.7 years.

What lies ahead for the people of Angola?

What future for Cabinda?

And can the Africa Cup of Nations recover?

Studio guests: LARA PAWSON, journalist and broadcaster and THOKO KAIME, Lecturer in Law at the University of Surrey. Also featuring, RAFAEL MARQUES DE MORAIS, journalist and human rights activist and MARKUS WEIMER from the think tank Chatham House.
