OCHA Nigeria Adamawa State Weekly Situation Report No. 1

Highlights • Adamawa State is host to over 209,000 displaced people,1 with the most urgent needs among beneficiaries being food, non-food items (NFIs), essential drugs and shelter material and livelihood assistance. • The current security situation in Adamawa State is relatively calm, yet there is a struggle against highly unpredictable non-state armed group (NSAG) attacks, particularly for Madagali and Michika Local Government Areas (LGAs) which are located in the northern part of the state bordering the Sambisa forest. • Over 8,000 Nigerian refugees in Cameroon have spontaneously returned, according to UNHCR, and settled around borderline communities in Mubi North, and Maiha LGAs. The returnees will benefit from general integration/recovery interventions in host communities.
