witnessed the death of his father who tried to flee from #BokoHaram dressed as a woman. The insurgents killed him because he wanted to outsmart them. ImageImage
Despite his loss, he wants to continue life, become a doctor, so he can help wounded people.

But #COVID19 has disrupted his plan like that of other 400, 000 children who arrived at various camps in #Maiduguri, Yobe, Gombe, and Adamawa at the ages of 8, 9, 10.
