Lois Azurfa, a 21-year-old undergraduate, who was among the 65 passengers kidnapped by terrorists in the Abuja-Kaduna train attack on March 28, 2022, has expressed concern about her safety.
Lois spent 191 days in captivity and was the subject of a love overture one of their abductors made to her.
In an interview with Punchng, the undergraduate said due to her situation she is in danger of experiencing abduction again, and would grab any opportunity to relocate abroad for safety sake.
“If I really have opportunity to travel out, I think it will be better for me because staying in this country, I feel I’m not still safe for the fact they (Boko Haram) had indicated interest to marry me. At some point, I was actually thinking they never wanted to get me released. I feel that staying back in this country, Nigeria, they can come back for me if they still want me.. So, I don’t really feel safe, that’s one reason why I don’t really go out.
“So I feel like it can still happen again, so I don’t really feel safe. I feel if there is any way for me, if there is a way for me to leave this country, it would be better for me,” she told the publication.
