In addition, she added that some of the schoolgirls abducted by Boko Haram in mid-April, 2014, from their school in Chibok may be holed up in the town as well.
The woman, who painted a horrific portrait of life in Gwoza, a border
town with rocky terrain that has long been a refuge of Islamist
insurgents, added that suspected that some of the abducted Chibok
schoolgirls were in the same town. She disclosed that there were lots of
young females in captivity in Gwoza town, the headquarters of Gwoza
local government area.
According to SR, the source also stated that more than 70 bodies of elderly men killed by Islamist militants in the town were yet to be buried as at the time of her escape. “There are corpses left in the open of elderly men slaughtered by Boko Haram,” the woman said.
She said hundreds of women were staying in various camps run by Boko Haram members in Gwoza or nearby towns.
The woman said she had spent more than seven months in one of the militants’ dens before she and nine other women managed to make a quick escape when Nigerian troops dropped a few bombs near their camp, creating a panic that enabled them to dash off into safety. She said she spent many days in the bush before she managed to get to a town in Adamawa State where residents offered her help.
“There are many camp in various places in Gwoza with hundreds of women and young girls,” the woman said. She added that the Islamist insurgents “kill people day in, day out. Recently, more than 75 elderly men were slaughtered and their corpses are yet to be buried.”
She added that Shekau and other militants often rode around in utility vehicles and preached against Nigerian governments, ordering their captives to embrace their doctrines or face summary execution.
