I had done a bit of digging and came across some openly sourced documents, including an IOM village assessment done in 2022, likely to facilitate humanitarian aid deliveries to the region. I was lucky...it contained a list of informal village names in the region, and their coordinates. I found a village named Fela, which was a name used by survivors I interviewed. The IOM listed these coordinates: 9.9448132 39.4190002
Those coordinates placed the village precisely parallel to the four way intersection that we had identified earlier. For vehicles driving from west to east, the road to Fela village was literally a sharp turn right, meaning "Fela Turnabout," the description given to us, was pretty consistent with this location.
