A woman from Maiduguri, Borno State, Nigeria, named Yakaka Yerima, shared her emotional journey of adopting a young girl who lost both parents to violence. The girl's father was killed in a terrorist attack before she was born, and her mother died during childbirth after surviving the same attack. The newborn was initially placed in an orphanage, but Yakaka felt compelled to take her in despite already having an 11-month-old child. She breastfed both children and raised them together. Six years later, Yakaka celebrated her adopted daughter's graduation from nursery school, expressing deep pride and gratitude for the child's growth and future.
