How does the kidnapping of a grandfather or the sound of a mother's cry shape a collection into a fierce recall of peace?

In Uncensored Snapshots, the speaker(s) harnesses the power of witness to document the decades-long ethnic cleansing that has left Northern Nigeria (Arewa) in fear of bloodshed and forced migration. In a world where media is often silenced by censorship, this collection offers a rare, unfiltered account of the rise of banditry in Arewa-an aftermath of the Boko Haram insurgency. Told through a deeply personal lens, the poems-both lyrical and cinematic-confront the terror of kidnapping, the trauma of loss, and the uncertainty of survival. As each piece lays bare the wounds of a broken system-where even retaliation becomes a life sentence-the people are left with a haunting question: Will Arewa and its people survive these atrocities?
