He, however, applauded the Borno state government for its commitment to the welfare of the people welfare while assuring the commission’s support at all times.

He noted that the commission had already established a resettlement city in Amarwa Village in the Konduga Local Government Area of the state for the returnees with provisions for schools, clinics, markets, a police outpost and skill acquisition centre among others.

Recall that thousands of Nigerians affected by the Boko Haram insurgency had fled to the neighbouring countries at the peak of the insurgency.
