Blind Ghanian student 'dragged from Oxford Union chamber'

Said the way he was treated made him feel "unwelcome in the union"

The Oxford Union has been criticised, following an incident where a blind student was reportedly forcefully removed from a debating chamber.

Ebenezer Azamati was "accosted" by a security guard when he tried to return to a seat he had earlier reserved before the debate on 17 October.

At least 14 people have been killed and many others wounded in an attack by armed men on a village in Nigeria's north-western Zamfara state according to Nigerian police.
