Since 2009, insecurity in the North-East
of Nigeria has led to the loss of over 20,000 lives and the
displacement of over two million people. Throughout the
region livelihoods have been disrupted, and homes, public
buildings and infrastructure destroyed. In a part of Nigeria
where 80 percent of people rely on agriculture for their
livelihoods, much has been lost. People have been forced
from their land and livestock has been killed. In many
areas, land mines and other remnants of war bring challenges
for safe and voluntary return. While Borno, Adamawa and Yobe
States bore the brunt of the direct impacts of the conflict,
the three neighboring states of Gombe, Taraba and Bauchi
have taken in scores of people who have been displaced,
taxing their communities, economic resource, social services
and infrastructure. Schools have been damaged, health
clinics destroyed and many people have been left vulnerable
by this crisis. The Government of Nigeria has made great
strides in retaking and stabilizing large portions of the
North-East, but the work to restore the lives of those
affected is just beginning. This assessment, led by the
Government of Nigeria and supported by local, national and
international partners, has helped quantify the physical,
social and economic impacts of the crisis in the North-East,
and will inform the process of stabilization, peace building
and recovery in the region. The RPBA is a necessary tool
that will help us gather the resources and develop the
capacities to address these challenges. The results will
help reduce suffering in affected communities, restore a
sense of normalcy and regain the trust of people in the region. |
