As mentioned in my presentation, we have built houses \u2014 1,000 of them \u2014 and we have handed them over to the Borno government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo IDP will be returned to a community that is not safe for return. That is the first strategy and I am sure that is being followed. But there can be spontaneous attacks even when an area is declared safe for return. We might have issues here and there but the security agents are on top of it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe principle is to return them safely and in dignity.
