In Bakassi, a short documentary by filmmaker Joel ‘Kachi Benson will be screened on February 8, 2019, being the last day of the ongoing Social Media Week Lagos. The documentary is also one of the selected virtual reality films that will be screened at the 2019 Berlin International Film Festival. Many of the children in the camp are orphans and have been traumatically affected by the effects of the insurgency. Despite efforts by the government and international bodies, the living conditions in the camp are still deplorable and subpar. Benson’s film spotlights these problems and brings them to the forefront of the documentary.
