The Media Blog: The New York Times just told a bad-ass Nigerian story – about Boko Haram

The kind of journalism that inspires. The New York Times, working with the Pulitzer Centre delivers a long, long, long read that delves into the forgotten boys of Boko Haram.

“The eight-year conflict between Boko Haram and the Nigerian state has killed more than 20,000 and displaced millions. The people have slipped out of Boko Haram’s control quietly by night or trudged en masse from a large-scale attack to the Borno state capital, Maiduguri.”

“It was not until parents started pouring into the city that aid workers realised a new dimension of the problem. They saw the crowds of women and girls coming in and wondered: Where are the boys?”

You should read the whole story here. And wow.
