The district head of Pandogari allowed us to stay at Kangoma Academy after our request, but the Son Benedict (a private school) was given to us by the Christian association,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Haruna Umar, president of Shiroro youth development forum, said despite using social media platforms to relate the IDP\u2019s situation to the government, no response has been received.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese people are in a serious problem. You need to see them lying on the streets; you will weep for them,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>It was gathered that despite being in session, displaced persons from Erena, Kaure, Galkogo are currently camping at a secondary school in Shiroro area, where they return to sleep at night.<\/p>\n<p>However, Ibrahim Inga, director-general of the Niger state emergency management agency (NSEMA), said the government is aware of the situation of the displaced persons on the streets of Pandogari.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, the government is trying to avoid unveiling its plans in public as the \u201cinformant elements\u201d within the IDPs could instigate them to protest.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe government is now looking at different dimensions of handling the security situation, which we don\u2019t want to go public yet until we are fully in implementation stage,\u201d Inga said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut for now, looking at the large number of IDPs we have across the affected LGA, the government is working assiduously and committing every resource to ensure safety and return to their normal lives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Inga said the government is trying to avoid conventional camping because of the new trend of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2021\/04\/22\/i-foresaw-invasion-of-our-forests-by-bandits-olonisakin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bandits<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor now, we just have to hold certain information.
