This programme is being broadcast as part of the "Discovery" strand, which
since 27 March has been cut back to 18 minutes.  The press release refers to
topics for this programme in parts one, two and three.  Discovery is
typically followed by "From Our Own Correspondent", and I would be sightly
surprised if this was dropped.  So my guess is that the "One-Hour Special"
is actually 3 x 18 minute episodes starting this week (first airing Monday
11 April at 1932UTC) and continuing for the next two weeks.

But, I'm probably completely wrong!

Coming up on Monday, April 11th.

It appears the West Africa shortwave service will only include half of
the program, if the online schedule is to be trusted, beginning at
1932 UTC after Focus On Africa.  Shortwave frequencies at that hour
targeting West Africa include 11810, 15400, and 17795 kHz.

Listeners in the USA via Sirius and PRI-fed stations should try the
following times UT:  Tuesdays 1006, Saturdays 1900.

Discovery is also offered via podcast, and an extensive on-demand
archive is also available online, with audio available back to 2009.
