Highlight

• 7 Reception centers in Borno State located in Pulka, Ngala, Monguno, Banki, Gwoza and Dikwa LGAs.

• Presently all the facility has exceeded their carrying capacity.

• The Reception Centers are hosting 8,090 households of 21,555 IDPs (6,630 girls, 5,980 boys, 5,505 women and 2,519 men)

• 466 households in Monguno and Pulka are sleeping outside in the cold without basic needs in overcrowding, inadequate protection, and health risks with no concise exit plan.

• Lack of services in areas of return/relocation (some of the IDPs from closed sites), safety and security, unresolved HLP issues, and a general lack of access to humanitarian assistance were some of the main drivers of population movement into RC.

• Limited response from partners (multi-sectorial) response.
