After the Kala-Balge attack, a fleeing pregnant woman from attacks of Boko Haram in Kala-Balge, Borno State, delivered a baby girl in a thick forest.
The woman was among thousands of people that fled the town to avoid reprisal attacks from members of the deadly sect.
According to Abba Adulmumuni, an indigene if the area: “As a result of that attack, one month ago, the Boko-Haram members have regrouped and are massively killing the people of Kala-Balge community. In fact as I am talking to you now, almost all the people of Kala-Balge villages and towns have fled. Some of them are in the border between Cameroun and Nigeria while some are in the bush.”
“In fact yesterday I was talking to my people and they told me that a woman delivered a baby girl in the bush on June 3. There was no water, no shelter and no food because it is a semi- desert area and there are no trees there. So the people are just there, even those in the borders are under the scorching sun daily.”
Abba lamented that it was indeed sad that the Director, National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), Borno State, said he needed people from Kala-Balge to come for relief materials to be conveyed to their people.
He added that “I have never seen where such a thing is done. If there are emergencies, NEMA is supposed to convey the materials for the people. So how come NEMA is now asking the people of Kala-Balge to come and convey relief materials to their people. If NEMA has security challenge, they should go to the government and tell them that this is our problem.”
Abba noted that lack of government presence in Kala-Balge, saying that the local government has only five primary schools and no secondary school at all.
According to him, “Nobody is speaking for these people and saying anything, even the member that is representing the area in the state house of assembly, even the local government chairman is not saying anything. What the people of Kala-Balge need at the moment are one, security and relief materials. The Federal Government should kindly save these people from hunger and starvation because they are Nigerians.”
