Gaji Mustafa* photographed on assignment for @streetchilduk.
Gaji (*not her real name) has lost both her husband and her son to Boko Haram... almost everyone in the IDP camps in north east Nigeria had lost literally everything fleeing the insurgency. Many of them will not be returning home for a long time, if ever. Although Gaji’s face carries her sorrow, her story isn’t without hope; a small business grant from Street Child means she could start selling petty goods from the converted boarding school her and thousands more call home, giving back some of her independence again.
Thanks to UNHAS, Street Child of Nigeria and Street Child’s local partners for acting as translators and assistants to help create this image, and to Gaji for sharing her time and her story with us.
This portrait was taken with Gaji’s full, informed consent with a clear explanation as to how the photo would be used, a preview of the image and her name changed to protect her identity.

This morning, a few hours to 2019 elections, a series of explosions were reportedly heard in Maiduguri, Borno state.
.
However, the Commissioner of Police, Borno state says, there is no cause for alarm as the explosions are not targeted at members of the public but for security purposes.

What do you think, #PulseFans?

Housing for internally displaced people in Dikwa, Nigeria, on assignment for @streetchilduk.
What hasn’t really communicated about the nine year insurgency is the sheer volume of the displacement. You get some idea of it Maiduguri but it’s when you see towns like Dikwa from the air and see the lines kilometres long of women waiting for the daily ration of food the sheer scale of people displaced becomes apparent. These shelters are typical of the housing most will find themselves, here built by @mercycorps; a simple wooden structure covered in tarpaulin.

What a wonderful way to celebrate International Women's Day by being able to share this portrait I made on assignment for @streetchilduk in Borno State, Nigeria.
The nine-year Boko Haram insurgency is best-known for the kidnapping and return of the Chibhok schoolgirls, but what is far less well-publicised is the massive displacement of Nigerians by this conflict; a staggering 2.3 million people now call IDP (Internally Displaced People) camps their home, having lost, in the most literal sense, everything.
Falmatta (not her real name for security reasons), is one of the thousands now living in the town of Dikwa, occupied by Boko Haram for three years. The town is in ruins, so homes are a mix of thatch and white tarpaulin tents, and food from daily rations issued by @worldfoodprogramme .
For me, her stature and composure reflected both the hardship these people have endured, but also the dignity and poise with which they face it. I'm delighted that her story can be shared as part of @natgeoyourshot ’s"Best of the Week". I have to thank Benjamin Munson @the_only_way_is_africa , UNHAS, the Street Child Nigerian team and local partners and the people of Dikwa for having us as their guests and helping capture Falmatta in the most dignified way we could. •Nikon D750 f4.0 1/250sec ISO160 135mmDCwith @profotoglobal B2 and OCF Beauty Dish and @lastolitebymanfrotto reflector•
