On a bed at the female ward of the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital lay a 15-year-old girl in an evidently bad state. Her face and head were bandaged, leaving slits through which only a bruised eye and swollen lips were visible. On her body were clearer signs of trauma, with burns running from her neck down to the lower parts of her body.
Around her bed wafted a foul smell, which a nurse who came to attend to her attributed to a septic wound in the girl’s skull.
A nurse who did not want to be named because she was not authorised to speak to the press told the icirnigeria.org that a group of people from the biggest internally displaced persons (IDP) camp in Maiduguri dumped Lami (the surnames of all victims in this report are withheld to protect them) at the hospital.
