Thomas 34, a refugee from Baga currently resides in Waru, an outskirt community in Apo Abuja. On January 5, 2015, Thomas, a Farmer, as well as other members of his small fishing community said they he had trekked over 5 kilometer’s to escape insurgents in a massive attack that had left his brother missing his friend dead after the terrorists onslaught on the Military (MJTF) Operational Headquarters in Baga. He has just received news from home, of the conquest by our troops over Boko Haram in the battle that lTed to the victory and reclaiming of Baga from the terrorists siege.
Thomas who spoke to a reporter with NewsWireNGR agency expressed his excitement at the news as same holds for others living in the IDPs Camp, initially thought an impossible feat, Thomas had to confirm the news of the Troops victory from an Uncle who currently lives in Baga. He said: “We are really happy with what has been happening over there at Baga, i called my uncle and he said the military have won.” An excited Thomas, who expressed who expressed confidence though he lacks knowledge of the whereabouts of his family members, he his sure that that they will all return Home. “Several of my family members, I don’t know where they are now and I cannot reach them, but I know that if they hear that Baga is safe they will try and return there.”
Narrating the Story of his displacement from Baga, Thomas said: “I was in the farm with my brother and he decided to pack some yams home when he was gone, I started hearing gun-shots and heavy sounds like bombs, so I ran into the bush. After walking for long I saw other people with leathers and bags in their hand and we all started heading by foot towards Maiduguri. I have not heard from my brother since then, I hope he is alright.”
Thomas had no blames for anyone as he only looks forward to being re-united with members of his family and his friends and the #VictoryForNigeria in Baga has brought a significant ray of hope after weeks of despair. Apparently disgusted at the activities of the Boko Haram Terrorists and their promoters, he hoped that they never return to his beloved Baga again. “It is just that we dont know if this Boko Haram people will return again”. Thomas said.
And no matter the reservations of the doubting thomases, To Mr. Thomas from Baga, our troops victory is assured and offers him a much awaited chance to go back home.

Amen, this too shall pass. Only when you hear the experience, expectations and hope of those directly affected can you try try to understand the trauma they go through. Meanwhile senseless people are inciting revolts and acting like blithering idiots. It is well with this nation.

You're just the type that wishes BH will continue for selfish political gain! Using the suffering and killing of others for sadistic political gain! "Change' in deed you guys are! A party of pathological liars and dark hearted satanists! All to gain power for vendetta and Oil blocks for your generations unborn! You guys will fail!
Everything will be alright!
Thank God at least you're alive
Chai so pathetic. This story remembered me what my mum told us about biafrain war. War war war isn't good atall.
***floxycares***
This is one in many who have had their lives disrupted by this Boko haram insurgency. it will be a while before this country returns to normal
Sharap
this is really touching...but I think federal government shld provide home for these kinda ppl outside their former plc of residence cos if they go bak to reside there, they will be at risk for developing cancer following prolonged exposure to radionuclear substance from the site previously bombed. God help nigeria
We over here are really lucky.
By d grace of God his request wil b granted.
so touching, sorry ooo
