PROJECT SUMMARY:
The insurgency that continues in Nigeria's North Eastern States has led to the displacement of hundreds of thousands people. In September 2014, an estimate of 1.5 million IDPs in the six States were reported by the Presidential Initiative for the North East. Additionally to the estimated 350,000 IDPs in Maiduguri, Borno State, recent events in Mubi, Adamawa State, have thrown hundreds of thousands of people on the roads and many of them joined Yola, where they can be found living on the streets in terrible living conditions.
The insurgents now control a number of Local Government Areas (LGAs) in the three states enforcing their vision of Islamic Sharia in those areas. The insurgents have also demonstrated the capacity to launch attacks in major cities far beyond their strongholds including Abuja, Kano and Bauchi. Since the fighting escalated from March 2013, many schools have been attacked and in April 2014 over 200 young girls were abducted from school. While many families seek refuge in camps established in or around the city of Maduguri (in Borno state), many others move away from the conflict areas in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa states, into the neighbouring states of Bauchi and Gombe. Many others are known to be seeking refuge in Niger and Cameroon. The vast majority of those moving within Nigeria are seeking refuge with local households and only a small proportion ever register officially or stay within a camp established by NEMA in Maiduguri This obviously puts enormous pressure on local livelihoods when most families live on or below the poverty line even in normal times. Basic services including health and education are all but non-existent in most communities across the North East and those that do exist are completely inadequate to cope with the influx of displaced families.
ASSIGNMENT PURPOSE:
