• Whereas the ongoing insurgency in Borno State is widely reported as the main driver of displacement, Nigeria also faces deepening vulnerabilities as a result of hydro-meteorological hazards, mainly flooding and drought. Based on our client Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM), as of July 2025, there are over 2,292,477 IDPs and 2,189,318 returnees across the states in Northeast Nigeria, such as Adamawa, Borno, Yobe, Gombe, Taraba, and Bauchi. Borno State is resident to the highest number of IDPs i.e., 1,749,662. The limited presence of implementing partners has significantly weakened service delivery across critical sectors, leaving gaps in water, sanitation, hygiene (WASH), health, and shelter support for displacement-affected populations. WASH service delivery remains inadequate due to persistent funding constraints, leaving communities underserved and at heightened risk of preventable diseases.

• Our client activities in WASH response have been tailored to address the vulnerabilities of people affected by conflict in Borno and Yobe States. In Borno State, the response will specifically focus on conflict-affected LGAs of Dikwa, Gubio, Jere, Kaga, Kalabalge, Konduga, Mafa, Magumeri, MMC, Mobbar, Monguno, and Ngala, while in Yobe, the focus will be Damaturu, Gujba, Gulani, and Tarmuwa LGAs.
