At the invasion of her village, Gava in Gwoza, 54 year-old Asabey Ali’s family fled. Her husband climbed a mountain, where some villagers also took refuge. Members of Boko Haram, however, hunted those on the mountain during which Asabey’s husband was killed. Asabey now stays in St Theresa Catholic church, Jimeta-Yola, while her four children live in Cameroun and Nigeria as refugees and displaced persons.
