We traveled for three days and arrived on Wednesday
at around 12:00 a,m,
There was very heavy rainfall,
There was no shelter, no source of food,
no water for us,
We soaked maize in water
and consumed it with salt and tamarind leaves
the following day,
They constructed two rooms for us
using tree branches,
grasses, and leaves,
The rooms were small and could not contain us,
so some of us slept outside,
There were lots of snakes, scorpions, and ants,
We were not allowed to light anything at night,
We were told that a jet would come and take pictures
of anything it saw and will bomb us,

- Three students among us ran away,
but some Boko Haram saw, and captured them,
They gathered us and told us to observe
how they punished those who tried to escape,
They flogged them with 33 strokes of the cane each,
They dug a hole and laid them down near it,
We cried and begged them not to slaughter them,
They told us whosoever cries
or begs for them not to be slaughtered
would be slaughtered along with them,
We kept begging, and God answered our prayers,
They left us but made us promise
we would not try to escape again,
and whosoever tries to escape would be severely punished,
