The crisis in North Central and North West, which involves long-standing tensions between ethnic and linguistic groups; attacks by criminal groups; and banditry/hirabah (such as kidnapping and grand larceny along major highways) frequently leads to the displacement of local populations.
Recent attacks affected 421 individuals, including 27 injuries and 15 fatalities, in Faskari LGA (Katsina), Bassa LGA (Plateau) and Keana LGA (Nasarawa) between 30 and 31 May 2020. The attacks damaged major buildings and facilities causing people to flee to neighboring communities.
A rapid assessment was conducted by field staff to assess the impact on people and needs.
