772. The Koranic and Rehabilitation Centre

The Koranic and Rehabilitation Centre located in Daura, northern Nigeria was raided by the authorities and they found students shackled just like they do in Christian Boarding Schools in the United States. The authorities shut the school down like a number of other similar schools located around in the country of Nigeria.

It could not have been fun to be there as a teenager.
