Just read this  - so a late response. He did one simple thing wrong - he did not offer a bribe, to the cops, to the court bureaucrats or later to the immigration/custom or whatever they have.  If he was staying there that long I'm surprised he didn't understand the culture.

Children held in 'horrific conditions over Boko Haram ties': HRW

 

Thousands of children have been held in recent years by Nigeria's military in "degrading and inhuman conditions" for alleged association with the Boko Haram armed group, Human Rights Watch (HRW) has said, calling for their "immediate" release.

"Children are being detained in horrific conditions for years, with little or no evidence of involvement with Boko Haram, and without even being taken to court," said Jo Becker, children's rights advocacy director at HRW, and one of the report's authors.
