Nigeria’s number one citizen said: “We have frightening indices of the number of people and the situation in the IDP camps across the country. And in spite of the government’s efforts and the hospitality of individuals and organizations, the situation needs better handling. A large segment of the IDPs are mostly women and children. Some of the children are orphaned and don’t know where they came from.

“Now we are working on getting a comprehensive data of all the people in the camps so that the government and NGOs will be properly briefed on where and how to support them.”
The president said he has so much plan ahead for the displaced persons, in which integrating them into the Ministry of Agriculture, as local farmers, is one of the topmost plans, as he will leave no stone unturned, in order to see that none of them have memory of the Boko Haram insurgency, they suffer for some years.
Apart from re-integrating the internally displaced persons, there is good news regarding rescuing the Chibok girls because, the UN promised to support Nigeria by all means, adding that it will not rest until the girls are all freed.
