“I was 17 years old when we were abducted. I have faced a lot of challenges, more especially being a mother. My mum is not young enough to work or farm to help me and also, I lost my dad and my brother is not good at his business to help me. I struggle to take care of my child. The challenge I face from people is a lot, especially those of us that came out with children. People usually abuse us, call us names and especially our children; they call them Boko Haram children and that made me leave Chibok. It is not easy.
“Due to the number of people that Boko Haram had killed that we can’t even count, they have destroyed Chibok local government and some of my friend’s parents and cousins, because of this incident, we lost them. We faced a lot of challenges.”
