Jane, a Nigerian woman rescued from the Mediterranean Sea along with her
children and other African migrants yesterday, claimed she fled from
Boko Haram attack.
"I fled because it was not safe there for my children anymore. Boko
Haram keep spreading terror. When we fled, it took us more than eight
months to get to Libya.
On the way we faced many problems. We were beaten by
sticks, kicked, had little water. Then we arrived in Libya and men in
police uniforms took us. I have my three children with me. It was so
difficult to go on such a dangerous journey with them. Before we got on
the rubber boat of course I was very afraid; but our lives are in the
hand of God. If it is his will that we survive, we survive. My children
got sick several times, especially while at sea. We dream about going to
Germany. My biggest hope is to live a free life in Europe"
