Boko Haram: Diarrhoea Hits IDP Camp, Claims 10 Lives In November - Premium Times by BeeBeeOoh(m): 8:35am On Dec 21, 2016 |
Two years after Boko Haram attacks forced them to flee their homes in the north-east Nigeria, a fresh grief has crept in on some internally displaced persons camped in Wasa, a rural community in the suburb of Apo in Abuja. http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/218198-surviving-boko-haram-attacks-displaced-persons-die-diarrhoea-idp-camp.html Lalasticlala, Mynd44 |

LACK OF WATER Displaces persons, IDPs, narrated how absence of potable water has been a major problem for the over 5000 residents. “We drink water from the borehole, which we buy for N10 per jerry can,” Mrs. Ibrahim said. But that was only after an NGO constructed a borehole and installed two plastic tanks in the camp. “Before then, our only source of water was the stream a few kilometres across the camp”, she added. Mrs. Ibrahim, like other members of the camp, feels neglected by the Nigerian government. She does not know what the future holds for her family, who like tens of thousands of IDPs displaced by the Boko Haram are scattered across Abuja without any government assistance. The government has repeatedly asked the IDPs to return to their homes in Borno. But despite government efforts, attacks by Boko Haram on civilians and soldiers are still rampant in Borno, Yobe, and Adamawa, discouraging the displaced persons from returning. The Boko Haram insurgency has caused the death of over 20,000 people while millions of others like those in Wasa have been displaced from their homes. Unfortunately for IDPs who moved outside of the north-east to Abuja and other places, the attention of the government and local and international organisations is fixed mainly on displaced persons who remained in the troubled region. |
