'"Life will never be as it was before" - Young Nigerian mother who fled after Boko Haram attacked their village and burnt everything to the ground



Naomi Dauda, her husband and their 14 month old son Habu have been living in a camp in the outskirt of Yola, Adamawa State capital since Boko Haram militants attacked their village.
"Our village was captured, so we had to flee. Everything was burnt to the ground"  says Naomi, who has been trying to start a small business selling children's wollen hats.
Naomi says her village still comes under attack, and it wouldn't be safe for her to return. She also has nothing to return back to, as her house has been destroyed.
"I'm worried because we've heard that by December the camp will be shut, so I don't know what will happen. Life will never be as it was before," she says.
