| Description: She boarded a commercial bus at Tashan Bama in Maiduguri on 15th May 2013. There were five men in the vehicle when they took off. She was the only female among them. When they reached Bama Local government around Firgi area in Borno State, some Boko Haram members with heavy weapons abducted them and they were taken to Boko haram camp in Sambisa Games Reserve. Immediately after their arrival they slew the five men with a knife in her presence. She was there in their camp for 12 days when they slew more than 50 people in her presence. Whenever they bring a hostage, they check their identity card and differentiate them base on their belief, if you are Christian they kill you, if the victim happens to be Muslim they recruit them. Those who refused they slew them. It was one fateful day on 26th May 2013 that she escaped when the insurgent distanced themselves from them to service their weapons and equally train the new recruits on how to handle guns. She had pondered on how to run when she saw how females were killed. They told her to get ready for conversion the following morning, and fortunately God took control of the event and one young man among the captives took courage and jumped into one of their cars and started it. Eventually she and other six young men entered the car and they drove off. Unfortunately the Boko Haram followed them and succeeded in killing four but she and the driver escaped. That was how they abandoned the vehicle and trekked for some more kilometers to get to the main road. |
