I was no longer comfortable in Maiduguri following the incident that happened?Early in January, 2020, my mother fell ill. So, my elder sister told me to bring her to Maiduguri for treatment.
On our way to Maiduguri, along Damaturu road, we heard gunshots. The people who fired the shots came out with their faces covered and stopped us. Three of us in the vehicle were women. The armed men asked for our names and religion. Those of us who identified ourselves as Christians were separated and I was the only lady among them. After that, they collected all we had and told our driver to leave with my mother because they would take me away.
I was beaten on the first day and I spent a week without eating. But they gave me water in the second week. I later fell ill and had pneumonia.
