Family forces atheist son into mental ward

Chemical engineer Mubarak Bala, 29, alerted people to his plight with tweets allegedly from a smuggled phone that he used in the toilet of Kano city’s Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital, where he says he is being drugged and held against his will in a psychiatric ward.
In his tweets, Bala said his father and three uncles beat him up, and his brother injected him with a sedative. He woke up 30 hours later in the hospital.
