"I SAW BOKO HARAM CUT OFF MY GRANDFATHER'S HEAD" - 13-YEAR-OLD IBRAHIM DANIEL SAYS

As northern Nigeria struggles with stability from the gory attacks of Islamic terrorist group, Boko Haram suffered in recent years, Al Jazeera took a trip with their cameras to Gwoza - a community in Borno State to speak with children who witnessed the brutality of the deadly terrorist group firsthand.

"Boko Haram, I see them use knife, chop my grandfather's head," said Ibrahim Daniel, a 13-year-old boy from Gwoza in Borno State.  

Ibrahim added:

"the Boko Haram is something that you won't like to see. I'd like to be a soldier because anything that them [Boko Haram] do, I'd like to do back to them. If me, I see them, me I go carry them. Me I kill am. I can help government. I can help my parents with being soldier".

According to the report, Gwoza was, and is still, a notorious hideout for the fighters. Boko Haram took over the town with nearly 300,000 people in August 2014, and declared it the headquarters of what it called its Islamic Caliphate.  

The group's black flags were mounted around the town. Boko Haram members executed anyone who failed to obey their rules, dumping corpses in wells and streams. Hundreds hid in the Gwoza Hills, a set of rocky outcrops on the northeastern end of the volcanic Mandara Mountains that straddle the Nigerian-Cameroonian border.
