Kamilah McInnis meets Tokunbo Koiki, who has just made history today as the first black person in the UK to donate a kidney to a complete stranger. What motivated her to make such an extraordinary decision?

Also in the studio is ten-year-old Elizabeth Okogwu, fresh from winning BAFTA's 2025 Young Presenters competition, who shares what it's been like stepping into the spotlight.
And in the world of poetry, there's plenty to talk about. Brighton-based wordsmith Aflo the Poet joins the conversation, as well as Naomi Wilcox-Lee, organiser of OmniVerse - a Dorset poetry project creating space for voices that don’t always get heard.

Join Kamilah every Friday from 7-10pm for great music, good vibes and stories from our African and Caribbean communities.
