They’ve arrested  eight suspects.

The victims, some of whom had been held in chains for several years, were tortured, sexually abused and starved.

Nigerian police say the case involving men and boys amounted to human slavery.

They raided the house after a tip-off about suspicious activity.

Some of victims , who were overjoyed at being rescued, said their families had left them there believing it was a religious school.

There was no evidence that the building ever was a school.

The victims have been taken to local football stadium while their families are being traced.

They will all undergo medical and psychological examinations.
