Members of Boko Haram chased Martha Garba out of Gulak, Madagali, in Adamawa State, after an attack in which Martha’s husband was murdered. Contrary to Martha’s story, her neighbours claim that members of Boko Haram captured and threatened her to deceptively convince her husband to descend a mountain, which served as her family’s fortress. Allegedly deceived by his wife, whom was under Boko Haram’s threat, Martha’s husband thought his village was freed of Boko Haram, and so returned to his death, at his house. Martha eventually escaped with her five children to Yola, the state capital of Adama
