Chikaodinaka Sandra Oduah (born March 14, 1986) is a Nigerian-American journalist who has worked as a television news producer, correspondent, writer and photographer.[1] She is currently a correspondent for VICE News.[2] Known for her unique human-focused ethnographic reporting style with an anthropological approach,[3][4] she was awarded a CNN Multichoice African Journalist Award in 2016. Upon the abduction of 276 schoolgirls by the terrorist group Boko Haram in Chibok, northeastern Nigeria, she was the first international journalist to visit and spend extensive time in the remote community of Chibok. Her thorough and exclusive coverage of the mass kidnapping won her the Trust Women "Journalist of The Year Award" from the Thomson Reuters Foundation in 2014.[5] Oduah's reporting explores culture, history, conflict, human rights, and development to capture the complexities, hopes and everyday realities of Africans and people of African descent.[6]
