Borno State Governor, Babagana Umara Zulum, has announced that the Muna IDP camp will be closed within the next two weeks.

Governor Zulum made the announcement during an early morning visit to the camp.

Muna was one of the largest camps housing displaced persons at the height of the humanitarian crisis in the state; however, 75% of its inhabitants have since been resettled.

During his first term in office, Governor Zulum pledged to close all camps within Maiduguri and its surrounding areas, a goal he has largely achieved by shutting down more than twelve formal camps.

During the visit, the governor promised to support and improve their means of livelihood.

Muna camp has about 10,000 displaced persons.
