Chiba had never wanted anything more than to go back home. His son, now three, was beginning to ask questions. "Idua, there is n

o place like Abuja," Chiba said. He stroked his boy's hair, as he added, "I'm telling you!"
"Papa, is your yellow house still there? And the big river by the park? And the million trees?" Idua asked as the plane landed on the runway.
