On 1st of May, windstorms struck the Transit Camp of the Pulka Bokko Ward in Gwoza LGA of Borno State. The windstorms affected a total of 504 individuals from 136 households. The windstorms also damaged six transit shelters, one communal shelter, and two brick/block latrines were damaged.
Following these events, DTM (Displacement Tracking Matrix) field staff conducted rapid assessments to inform the humanitarian community and Government/partners, and to enable a targeted response. Flash reports utilise direct observation and a broad network of key informants to gather representative data and collect information on the number, profile, and immediate needs of affected populations.
