The luxurious ghost airport in one of the world's poorest countries

In Mozambique, a $200m airport was meant to be the second busiest in the country.

But three years after it opened it is operating at only 4% of its capacity.

Nacalas International Airport has also been caught up in a corruption scandal involving Brazilian contractor Odebrecht.

The company was responsible for the airport's construction, and admitted to having paid bribes to high level officials.
