… Discovers 650 ghost households

Around midnight on Sunday, Borno Governor, Professor Babagana Umara Zulum showed up at Mohammed Goni College of Islamic Legal Studies in Maiduguri, where internally displaced persons from Abadam local government area of northern Borno were being camped.

Zulum immediately sealed entrance and supervise a headcount to identify actual IDPs, in order to put a stop to rampant cases of dubious residents pretending to be displaced, who spend day times at IDP camps to share food meant for IDPs, and towards the night, they return to their homes to sleep, with some of benefiting from other means through which the state distributes food to vulnerable non IDPs in communities.
Governor Zulum’s mission, which ended past 1am, discovered that out of 1,000 households in the records of humanitarian officials, 650 households were ghosts.

450 households were found to be real IDPs after Zulum’s midnight headcount which was conducted by the governor alongside an official of the National Emergency Management Agency, NEMA, Air Commodore M. T. Abdullahi, and two commissioners (Agriculture, and Local Government and Emirate Affairs).

In humanitarian system, a household normally consist of at least six persons who are either related through families, or chosen to stay together for the purpose of receiving household aids.

Officials who were part of the midnight headcount said Governor Zulum was not averse to approving for any citizen who may be vulnerably in need of food since there is a committee doing that, however, the Governor is vehemently opposed to some residents making dubious claims in other to take what is meant for IDPs while also benefiting from other existing welfare activities that target non IDPs.

the lowest that can happen to anyone is pretend to be an idp...
Imagine what he or she would have to go through just to eat like the idp..
This is truly a godforsaken country

Imagine, those who couldn't form their own bandits are now milking the state government through idp.

Evil people everywhere

Ogun state Governor should do the same in Benin Republic. I don't trust jobless men and women

The only Governor i respected so much that's from North unlike the likes of that midget called Hellrufai and Bala Mohammed , clear unapologetic terrorists.

Prof Zulum is a proactive leader who leads by good example. He is a type of a leader who values first-hand information much.

we are just too bad in this part of the world . out of 1000 650 are ghost idp what a wicked nation this set of people will still come out to blame the governor latter

Whenever I hear people say that Nigerians are good people, I have goose pimples.

Good people, indeed, but their country is a perfect definition of a shithole

Best governor

Na poverty cause am na

It's the same way some Africans travel abroad as refugees,even when they are doing fine in their country

God help Africa

Criminals! Officials have probably been cashing out, and the governor noticed something was amiss. Imagine 650 portions of food items being diverted. Items meant for refugees suffering.
I'm convinced Hell for Some Nigerians in the hereafter must be different.

Ah...this our Sahara desert brothers are becoming really crafty....so them follow like to play ojoro like our brothers from portor portor republic....this is so unsophisticated.

One of the reason the war won't end, Boko Haram is like NDDC to the north... They case out from it
