The Federal Government has commenced massive distribution of relief supports through the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) to the Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) that have returned to their communities which were recently liberated by the military from insurgents in Adamawa State.
Flagging off the relief distribution in Mubi, Vice President Namadi Sambo said it was a follow-up to the recent assessment carried out by a Presidential Committee led by Minister of Youth Development Mr Boni Haruna in the liberated communities and aimed at supporting the returnees to gradually settle back to their homes.
He said the relief distribution would be continuous and in all communities affected by insurgency as part of the renewed efforts by the Federal Government to restore normalcy, rehabilitate the affected persons and reconstruct damaged infrastructure in the communities.
