Woman Fleeing Boko Haram Attack Gives Birth To Baby Inside The Bush

 

A pregnant woman who was fleeing from attacks by Boko Ha­ram at Kala-Balge community in Borno State has delivered a baby girl in the bush, a native of the area has disclosed.
According to Abba Ab­dulmuminu, in a press conference with journalists at the Correspondents Chapel in Bauchi …

The woman was among thousands of natives of the local government area, who had fled the constant re­prisal attacks on the people of Kala-Balge by members of the deadly sect.

Last month, the people of Kala-Balge were celebrated for successfully defending the communities from the attacks of the deadly Boko-Haram insurgents numbering over 300 who had attacked them.
Abdulmuminu told jour­nalists in Bauchi: “As a result of that attack, one month ago, the Boko-Haram members have regrouped and are 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 Cameroon and Nigeria while some are in the bush.
“In fact, yesterday I was talking to my people and they told me a woman de­livered in the bush last night (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 there, even those in the borders are daily in the scorching sun.”
