This report presents Flow Monitoring Registry data collected in August 2020 it presents key data on flows, routes, provenance, destination and demographic profiles of travellers observed at the FMPs.
 
Mobility trends: Over the course of the reporting period, 1,220 individuals were observed at FMPs daily, on average. This represents a six per cent increase when compared to the previous month, during which 1,154 individuals had been observed daily. This trend may be explained by the rapid re-integration of individuals to the new normal since the lockdown/movement restriction were lifted by the Federal Government of Nigeria.
