The sunrise over Zabarmari village was beautiful in Jere Local Government Area of Borno State , but it offered no comfort to Fatima Sani, a 22-year-old woman in labour.
Her baby was coming, but the nearest health centre - her only hope - was closed.
Fatima had done everything right. She attended prenatal care and knew when her baby was due. Sadly, she never expected to travel 20 kilometres for delivery, passing three closed health centres along the way.
