A 90-year-old Internally Displaced Person, Zahrah Musa, on Wednesday rushed to save her N300 potatoes, minutes after she escaped a bomb attack in Maiduguri.


While fellow IDPs kept a safe distance from the scene of the bombing, Zahrah searched her burnt tent in an effort to recover the potatoes.

The woman kept saying “I am very hungry” as she searched for her potatoes and ignored emergency rescue workers from the National Emergency Management Agency who tried to stop her.

Zahrah, who was wounded in the explosion, insisted that getting back her food was of paramount importance to her.

When it became obvious she would not budge, a NEMA official had to carry her in his hands to a mobile ambulance to treat her bleeding legs.

In spite of her condition, the woman continued to protest, saying she must be allowed to get back her potatoes, which she bought the previous day at N300.

The scene of the early morning attack at Muna garage was an unofficial IDP camp, where people live on their own without access to the food rations provided by the government and other support groups.

However, the Chairman of the State Emergency Management, Mr Satomi Ahmed, said that the state government would provide relief materials to those living in such camps.

This is serious. This is the result you have when you have selfish, self centered and corrupt people as the coordinator of place like IDP camps. All they do is to convert the relief materials and if Sai Baba talk you see their miscreants protesting for them as usual.

Hello fellow Nairalanders..I usually don't do Ponzi or support Ponzi schemes, but when my friend who stays in US told me about Payafricans.com I made up my mind to join...and I noticed something about them. They are so organized, they will send email notification when you register, sending you your login details so that when you forget you can easily go to email and retrieve it.

Guys, payafricans.com just came into Nigeria few days ago...lets go and make money there.

Visit: www.payafricans.com and thank me later.

Bye.

And mind you, this isn't love for potatoes. This is the government neglecting their own.
