Governor Babagana Zulum of Borno State has ordered the immediate closure of the internally displaced persons (IDP) camp in Bama, the largest displacement facility outside the state capital, Maiduguri, while also hinting that the Gwoza camp would follow suit.
The governor announced this on Thursday in Gwoza shortly after an assessment visit to the Government Secondary School IDP camp.
“We visited Bama yesterday and supervised the screening of IDPs, and by 12 noon, the Bama IDP camp should be closed,” Zulum stated.
“Today we are here in Gwoza, we have profiled all of them, and Insha Allah, in the next two or three weeks this camp will also be closed,” he added.
