Dozens of the victims of Boko Haram insurgency in Hadejia, Jigawa, have resorted to street begging in order to survive, the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), reports.
NAN reports that the Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), including women and children, were seen roaming the streets, offices and market places in the area begging for alms.
Checks by NAN showed that most of the IDPs were taking shelter in unoccupied stalls at Hadejia market due to lack of an approved camp in the area.
Some of the IDPs, who hitherto took refuge in Hadejia, had however, relocated to their homes due to improved security in Yobe and Borno.
NAN also reports that though the population of the IDPs in Hadejia has decreased, their activities have continued to constitute public nuisance.
Hadiza Bukar, one of the IDPs said she was forced to beg to get what to eat and feed her three children.
Bukar said she fled to Hadejia after the insurgents sacked their village in Damasak, Yobe.
Another IDP, Yagana Modu, said she could not locate her family since the insurgents attacked her home at Geidam area of Yobe.
Modu said that she was evacuated to Hadejia by a Good Samaritan along with hundreds of other women and young children who survived the attack.

a problem of the north by the north and for the north= boko haram

Pls before IDP there were street beggers everywhere in the north so it's not new.

buhari still wont do anything about ,this even tho they are his people..that how dull he is..i shouted and scream when i saw the amount of people who were campaigning for buhari during the election period ..even here on nairaland..they call Jonathan clueless ..they said buhari is their new messiah we all heard the famous "sai baba" bullshit..it was like y'all had been brainwash to vote for buhari..but now that buhari has shown his true colour and he has prove him self not capable of running the country..non of u are calming to have voted for him.....now see..we are in ruins

One of them should dress like a masquerade the others should follow him to parade." Masquerade governance "

It is in their blood. don't be surprised that this was suggested by their leaders.

.
anyway sha I heard it is called going for I.T

Poor Nigeria, so they can go and kidnap them again for suicide mission?

no be hausa dem be? it is in their blood to beg

begging is in them. am not surprise

though not trying to be ethical or insight tribalism.... all beggers are northerners. Any state of the federation you go, u will find beggers!!!!! and they are northerners!


imagine if Nigeria break up.... don't imagine because the begging will spread.

They were beggars before they got displaced na.......abi I lie?

I'm sorry, but I wish this northerners ain't part of Nigeria, they are problem to this country, they have rule so long, still ruling and will still rule come 2019, but they are full of poverty..... They have poor mentality, you know you are poor, you marry four wives and gave birth to 27 children you can't feed, then they resort into begging....They are still in IDP camp and getting married plus given birth, that's bullsh.it....I Wish them luck

Even if an almajiri/uneducated northerners are placed in a mansion with all resources available, they would escape to go beg on the streets.

Hausa and begging are one

The repercussion of the core north's flawed system.....they see nothing wrong with child brides, western education is haram, they have bred monsters who have now chased them from their homesteads!

When they want to see change, they certainly know what to do away with.

You they mind them? I don't know why they are so stupid. One man (a poor man) with 5 wives and 25 children. Swains

Why can't those their law makers and governors assist them!

I don't believe this a bit.... Almajiris are everywhere in the North, that bowl is their official logo

This is not IDPs. begging is a common thing in the North na.
