Zulum Announce Resettlement 6,000 Families from Dikwa, Mafa By Gbenga Akingbule Borno State Governor, Prof. Babagana Zulum , on Monday announced the resettlement of 6,000 families displaced by Boko Haram insurgents. Gatekeepers News reports that the families hails from Dikwa and Mafa Local Government Areas. Zulum announced the plan at Muna IDP camp, one of the largests with about 11,000 families taking refuge due to the over a decade old crisis in Borno. Addressing journalists, Zulum reiterated that the resettlement became imperative due to the high-level of illicit activities in the camp. “Boko Haram can never be eradicated without resettlement taking place. People have to go back to their homes and earn their livelihood. We have observed that in the IDP camp, there is increasing prostitution, increasing gangsterism, cases of child abuse and other criminalities,” Zulum said. He added, “If you could remember, about four years ago, we announced that all formal IDP camps within Maiduguri metropolis would be closed. So far, so good, we have closed all down, about 12 of them. We have two informal camps remaining. We have resettled about 75% of the IDPs here (Muna camp), and the remaining 25% will return to their ancestral localities in the next few days. According to Governor Zulum, each of the 6,000 families will receive food aid, shelter materials, and access to healthcare services as part of the resettlement process. The Governor also announced that while each head of both male and female households receives N100,000, an additional N50,000 will be distributed to the housewives. Meanwhile, Governor Zulum also announced a plan to upgrade the vocational and skill acquisition centre at Maiduguri Maximum Security Correctional Facility to enhance rehabilitation and reduce the tendency for inmates to relapse into criminal activities. The Governor who visited the facility on Monday emphasised that the essence of prison sentences is to transform lives, not just to confine individuals. He said, “I am here to examine the living conditions of the inmates here, especially in the areas of technical and vocational skills. The essence of keeping them at the correctional facility is largely to reform them, but this cannot be feasible without facilities on the ground. We can also examine cases of some inmates, and within the ambit of the law, we will look to the possibility of releasing those convicted of minor offences,” Zulum said.
