Home to over 35,000 Internally Displaced Persons; Bakassi IDP Camp is one of the most populated IDP Camps in North East Nigeria. Over half of the IDPs are children impacted by Boko Haram’s deadly war in the North East and have little or no access to a proper education.
Displaced from their homes, these orphans now live in Bakassi, where life is hard, food is scarce, and every day is a struggle to survive.
In Bakassi follows the story of Modu Mustapha, an 11-year-old orphan, who escaped for safety with his younger siblings, after his father was killed in a suicide bombing. He has lived in an IDP Camp for 3 years, and takes us on a journey through his new home – Bakassi IDP Camp.
