Similar to other regions in the Sahel, in the state of Adamawa, the population increase and growing numbers of livestock have resulted in the scarcity of arable land and water sources, which are essential to sustain both crop cultivation and cattle herding.

The DTM Emergency Tracking Tool (ETT) is deployed to track and to collect information on large and sudden population movements, provide frequent updates on the scale of displacement and quantify the affected population when needed.

With the onset of the rainy season in Nigeria’s northeastern state of Adamawa, varying degrees of damages have been reported in multiple locations in the region. Heavy rainfalls, accompanied by strong winds have caused serious damages to shelters and infrastructures.
