Dorcas O., 50 years old, from Naka Village is running a little shop in the large yard in front of Abagana camp.

Dorcas O. set up a little stall and built a roof from wooden sticks and leafs. “I sell cigarettes, bread, detergent, torch lights, sweet, ground nut powder, and other things. I make a little profit to buy some extra food. But it is not much.” While she is attending customers in her shop, Dorcas O. is holding her grandchild who is just six weeks old. “We have not named the child yet. We just call it ‘baby’ for now,” she says. Dorcas O. has been living in Abagaba since March 2018. Finding enough to eat for her children and grandchildren has been a big challenge. For almost a year she worked as a farm hand to earn enough money to buy what she now sells. The displacement took a large toll on her family. Dorcas O. has to take care of her children on her own now: “My husband suffered from pneumonia and complained of the cold at night,” she says. In the dark concrete building where they lived in in Abagana camp the ground was too cold to sleep on, he said. So he moved to the city of Makurdi and slept outside, next to a church, where it was less cold. But the change did not help. “My husband died one week ago from his pneumonia,” Dorcas says, “His body is still in the mortuary. I pray to God that the future will be ok, that the future will be bright. Because right now, it is not ok.”
