I was able to access the detention centre where 37 young men died in NSCDC custody. The room was tiny, with barely any ventilation, and I could smell the bodies of those who had died. A survivor told me how they drank their own urine and sweat just to survive, and how officials ignored their cries for help. The government says investigations are ongoing to establish what happened.

BREAKING: Niger State police have told me they cannot verify the reported escape of 50 children announced late Sunday by the Christian Association of Nigeria and the government. Police say the only students confirmed to be safe are those who escaped on the night of the attack.

My latest report on a worrying trend of parents using bleaching creams on their children in Nigeria was aired today on BBC World Service TV. I went to Kano state for this report and witnessed how these harmful creams are being made using raw chemicals in the markets.
