On today's episode of Inspire Africa, host Jerry Bambi, does the round trip to West and East Africa - Nigeria, Ghana and Uganda feature in this episode.

Now, at the age of 18, Wadi Ben Hirki saw many in her native north east Nigeria base lose loved ones and property arising from Islamist terrorist group Boko Haram's attacks.
