"The World Has Abandoned Us" -- Boko Haram Refugees Claim

Boko Haram refugees in Niger feel 'abandoned' by the world. The size of the camp has swollen quickly since people began to arrive from mid 2015, having fled attacks that have engulfed the region as Boko Haram seeks to carve out a hardline Islamist state in the north east of neighbouring Nigeria.


Conditions in the camp have deteriorated in recent months as food aid has struggled to reach its occupants who live with just basic medical care and schooling.

Anger is rising in the camp that more is not being done to help them.
