The Support

“Equally, I explained to them that we are all in this together and that as long as we have some Nigerians living in IDP Camps, every Nigerian is living in IDP Camp.
“I appreciated the Governor of Plateau State, HE Barr @CalebMutfwang, for his warm reception and kind comments, especially for the great efforts he has made so far concerning the killings and terror attacks in the State, and for ensuring that the IDPs are well cared for.
