Damask is Boko Haram hotbed.i wonder how that trip got authorised. Chances of making it through Damask without getting attacked is 5%.
I have travelled on that road over 20 times you don't need any military authorisation there

Humanitarian Aid workers trabel to Damasak and Monguno ny road bro
Other humanitarian aid workers may, but Oga, ICRC and its workers does not. They only move within Maiduguri metropolis by road.

I think my advise to my cousin about joining one international NGO may seem ok. He secured a lucrative offer as a Monitoring and Evaluation specialist - Laboratory services with mouth watering offer including huge security cover and allowance and indemnity in case of death.

The post is in Damboa - I don't where that is located in the North East. Life may be more important than money at certain point.
Damboa is okay. I once worked for a year there

280k for the least paying NGO
That's cool. Means it can go as high as 800-1m?

It's enticing though but the problem is they are on a contract right?

Also, the dangers of working in volatile regions in Nigeria.

Can you address these fears for me please? smiley

Please what's the distance like from Damboa to Maiduguri and Damboa to Abuja?

All the interviews were done in Abuja and he is supposed to be coming to Abuja every last week of the month for to give report.

The guy is somehow an Ajebutter, so we are all
weighing on our options. I actually saw the job online in hotnigeriajobs and asked him to submit application. He studied Gender and development studies at George Washington University.

The parents are thinking that I was actually the one that got the job for their son and they are concern about the place that's why they are always asking me questions.

Their may be times for air travel and some by roads with the NGOs Toyota hilux with a driver and Mopol.

Damboa is the Base but will have to be moving around and visiting other places by road in toyota hilux

He should be careful of Damboa travels without Heli. It's one of the worst roads in Borno. Mostly road travels are controlled by the military with huge army escorts.
