  • Summary

  • Brand new podcast episode on ‘In Conversation with Street Child’

    This month, we speak to Jummai Musa, Street Child’s Country Director for Nigeria, and Matthew Page, Associate Fellow at Chatham House, and former Nigeria expert for the US intelligence community.

    It’s been a decade since the armed group Boko Haram kidnapped more than 250 girls from a school in Chibok, around 90 of them are still missing. Abductions in the northern regions of Nigeria have become a recurrent theme – whether for ransom, or to pressure the government to meet certain demands.

    Last month alone, the country faced another ‘kidnapping crimewave’ with dozens of people snatched by bandits. We discuss further how the continued abductions are challenging President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s government, which promised to tackle insecurity while also managing the country’s growing economic crisis.
