Between 28 October and 8 November 2024, the Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM), in collaboration with the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), the respective State Emergency Management Agencies (SEMAs), and the Nigerian Red Cross Society (NRCS), identified 1,078 locations in Adamawa, Anambra, Bayelsa, Cross River, Delta, Ebonyi, Edo, Enugu, Imo, Jigawa, Kebbi, Kogi, Kwara, Nasarawa, Niger, Oyo, Rivers and Taraba states that were impacted by floods or received internally displaced persons (IDPs) due to the flooding. Through a network of key informants and field focal points, and in close coordination with other humanitarian partners and local authorities, the assessments were jointly conducted in these locations to provide insights to the government and humanitarian partners on the affected population's primary needs, vulnerabilities, and mobility intentions. 

In the 18 states, 191 local government areas (LGAs) and 614 wards that were assessed, the joint assessment team identified 2,991,406 individuals in 514,289 households affected by the floods. These individuals included IDPs displaced by the floods and residents impacted by the floods but remained in their communities. The total affected population included 896,268 displaced individuals, 153,805 returnees and 1,941,333 non-displaced individuals.
