    Quotes

      Mary John

      “They entered my son’s room, they were sleeping. They killed him, his two children, and cut off his wife’s hand. They also injured the other child. Then they entered the other room where my daughter was sleeping and they killed her too.”

      Fati Bukar

      “If I go back there, what I fear most is that I won’t have peace of mind. That I’ll be constantly thinking, ‘Will the terrorists come today? Will they come tomorrow?’ That alone is enough to make someone lose weight, to live in constant fear. That alone is enough.”

      Hadiza Yahaya

      “Not even Boko Haram is at this scale. Imagine thousands of people being killed within that short period, not with bombs or guns, but with arrows, swords and even sticks.”

      Murjanatu Musa

      “I have lost people. My brothers and their children were slaughtered; my in-laws were killed. I’ve lost over 70 close relatives and direct family members to terrorism. I sleep and wake up with a heavy heart.”

      Hassan Audu

      “It was an admiration. I admired the way boys my age wielded weapons, I gradually got used to their lifestyle. I adapted. It felt good, and I liked it.”

      Imam Abdulkarim

      “School is not our biggest problem. We have a small madrasa (school) where children recite the Qur’an. What we need, what we truly need, is clean water and a clinic. Just a place to take our sick ones without watching them die slowly.”

      Ade Obed Feru

      “This crisis has become a tradition, and I hate to admit that we’re getting used to it. Once planting season sets in, we don’t sleep, because people are going to start clashing over lands in the bushes out there, and then those at home will bear the brunt.”

      Kaka Adam

      “The toilets were impossible for someone like me. I had to crawl to access the latrine, and it was always filthy. My wives, who also have mobility challenges, suffer even more because they are always at home and doesn’t have access to open fields to relieve themselves during the day.”
