We have been robbed of our social activities – Women in IDP camp
For the women in the Kuta IDP camp, there are no more social activities for them as they have been cut off from every social activity in the past five months.
This is the reason they are asking the government to expedite action to enable them return to their homes.
According to Fati Salihu, staying in the camp has robbed her of her social activities, which she misses above everything else.
To every question she answered, Fati harped and returned to how she missed attending social activities, which she wouldn’t miss while she was in her homestead.
“My stay here has destabilised me. Comparing here to staying at home remains incomparable. Staying here has robbed me of my social activities. My enjoyment has been taken away from me. It is incomparable in terms of enjoyment.”
For Habiba Masuku, staying in the IDP camp meant no more weddings, naming or other ceremonies to attend and she misses these above anything else.
“While I was in my village, I attended weddings and naming ceremonies often but here, there is really nothing like that. Even the women who gave birth here are too discouraged to even have a naming ceremony. You rarely see any parties happening here.”
