About this episode
When a child leaves home and does not return…
the silence that follows can break a family.
For the Ibrahim family in Hadejia, Jigawa State, that silence has lasted months.
What began as a disappearance has now turned into a national controversy — involving allegations of abduction, forced conversion, sexual exploitation, protective custody, and a court order that civil society groups say has not been obeyed.
Today on Nigeria Daily, we ask:
What exactly happened to Walida Abdulhadi Ibrahim?
Why are civil society organisations agitating?
And where does the law stand?
