Nigeria — Displacement Report 20 (December 2017)

Round XX identified 1,702,680 individuals as displaced in the affected states, representing a marginal decrease of less than 1% decrease compared to the population identified in Round XIX (October 2017). This is in line with the trend that has been observed over the last few months, mainly on account of increase in returnees. 82,274 displaced persons were interviewed in this round of assessment, representing five per cent of the identified IDP population. This report also includes site assessments that were carried out in 2,192 sites. The sites included 251 camps and camp-like settings and 1,932 locations where IDPs were residing with host communities.
