The DG called on donor agencies and Non-governmental organisations to key into the Borno state government plan of resettling IDPs to their communities. 

One of the implementing partners, Managing Director Dan Garu Global Resources, Alhaji Abdullahi Zubairu said the support is part of the company’s corporate social responsibility.
