"Ciroma Mohammed is standing on the spot he says was once occupied by his house in north-east Nigeria.
"We lose houses to the desert every year," he says from the village of Bulamadu in Yobe State.
The fine sand is swallowing up houses and roads every year.
Almost all the villagers in this dusty arid region say they have lost homes and farms to the Sahara Desert which is expanding southwards. " LINK
