She told The Punch in an interview that many small girls she met were either pregnant or nursing children belonging to the insurgents.
Her words:
“On reaching their camp, we met many young girls there and the whole place was in disarray. It was in 2014 and I was in the Boko Haram camp for three weeks. We met Chibok girls in the camp. While in the camp, I saw so many small girls, who were kidnapped. Some were being molested.
“Some were carrying children, while others were pregnant for the Boko Haram insurgents. It was a disgusting thing. Fortunately for me and some other girls, we escaped from the forest and found our way back to Chibok.”
Christopher said she can no longer continue her education because the news of her abduction led to her father's, noting that her mother could not bear the cost of her schooling and that of her other siblings
She now lives in an Internally Displaced People (IDP)'s camp.
