Ruth and Gemma have a Physics exam in the morning. Becky and Allelluia are revising for their A Levels. So it's an absolute nightmare to be woken by the fire alarm in the dead of the night.

I hope that reading someday will help people living in a different culture, in a security most Christians, and indeed Muslims, in north-eastern Nigeria can scarcely imagine, to better understand what people are suffering here. IGNATIUS A. KAIGAMA, Archbishop of Jos, Nigeria.
