She explained that the gunmen rounded them up, adding that when they came down from the vehicle, the gunmen ordered them to lie down, and marched them into the bush blindfolded after collecting their belongings.

“They asked me if I am married and I told them that I am married and I have two children but that is not true because I am from the convent and we don’t marry,” she said.
