Bauchi woman released after 19 months in prison over video condemning the killing of Deborah Samuel
Rhoda Jatau, a Bauchi woman who was imprisoned after condemning the killing of a Christian student, Samuel Deborah in Sokoto State, has finally regained her freedom.
Jatau was released following an intervention from civil society organisations, family members and religious bodies.
