This decision emerged from a meeting between the Federal Commissioner of the National Commission for Refugees, Migrants, and Internally Displaced Persons (NCFRMI), Ahmed Tijjani, and Borno State Governor Babagana Zulum.
Additionally, plans include the closure of remaining Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camps in Maiduguri, with efforts to facilitate the return of displaced individuals to their ancestral homes within a concise timeframe.
The repatriation process will involve a tripartite meeting and is coordinated in collaboration with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR).
A resettlement city for returnees has been established in Amarwa Village, Konduga Local Government Area, providing essential facilities such as schools, clinics, markets, a police outpost, and a skill acquisition center.
