Who will speak up for Nigeria's street children?

When children are restrained and flogged in public and those who try to protect them are attacked, the question is no longer about street life. It’s about human rights, dignity, and whether society sees these children as people in need of care or problems to be pushed out of sight. Adwoa Domena speaks to James Okina, founder of Street Priests Inc, and DW's Azeezat Abiola Olaoluwa.
