UNICEF Nigeria Twitter handle shared this touching story of this young girl from Borno, who witnessed the killing of her father and teacher by Boko Haram terrorists:
“Together with our parents, my five siblings and I were one happy family until Boko Haram attacked and overthrew our town,” says this 8-year-old girl, tears welling up in her eyes.
