“I just want to see my husband.” The principal rescued after 56 days in captivity in Oyo has shared her ordeal. She says none of the victims was sexually assaulted. She wasn’t beaten, but some of the younger children were flogged because they were noisy.

A heartbreaking account of survival.

He’s the sole importer of a particular brand of red wine from South Africa.” Watch the full exchange on Beyond the Headlines. #BeyondTheHeadlines #PeterObi #Tinubu #AdamsOshiomhole
