Nigeria and Libya

Inside stories from foreign correspondents, featuring Will Ross in Nigeria and Rana Jawad in Libya. Presented by Pascale Harter.

Pascale Harter presents stories from foreign correspondents based around the world. In this edition, Will Ross has been to the city of Kaduna in northern Nigeria, site of a church bombing by the Islamic militant group Boko Haram. He reports on the aftermath of the attack, and the bloody reaction by the Nigerian military.

And in Libya, the rumour mill that Muammar Gaddafi used to such great effect continues to turn even after the dictator's death. In the days of the Gaddafi regime, Rana Jawad found that getting information of any kind was difficult but now the real trouble is figuring out which bits of gossip are true.
