Hundreds Of IDPs protest over Shortage of food in Adamawa

Hundreds of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) from Fufore and Malkohi camps in Adamawa today staged peaceful protests over lack of food in their camps. 

The IDPs complained that many families in the camps were in critical living conditions due to hunger. Some of them claimed they eat just once a day.



The IDPs say if nothing is done soon, some of them, especially children, would soon start to die of hunger. The protesting IDPs allege that they go out of the camp some times to buy food for themselves. 

Reacting to the protest, the state Coordinator NEMA in charge of Adamawa and Taraba, Abbanni Imam, said efforts are being made to address the shortage of food in the camp.
