Paul Carsten - Nigeria - Reuters news

Paul Carsten (@paulcarsten) covers Nigeria, Africa's most populous country, for Reuters news agency from the capital city of Abuja. Hailing from the north of England, we talk about how he got to Oxford, Beijing and ultimately Abuja. Paul talks about a piece he did in the run-up to the Nigerian election on a grisly Islamic State massacre of dozens of people, contradicting a government statement that only three people had died. Since he's an old friend, there are also some goofs to lighten the mood.
