SITUATION REPORT 16 - 30 SEPTEMBER 2016
IOM continues its biometric registration in three states in North East Nigeria. As of 30 September, 363,245 individuals (103,638 households) have been biometrically registered in Adamawa (90,203), Borno (251,841) and Yobe (21,201) states.
IOM has built 319 emergency shelters in Benisheik (Borno State), to ensure that the affected populations have access to shelter, which will reduce their exposure to the environment and contribute to their increased security and dignity.
Throughout 2016, IOM has enhanced preparedness and response capacity by strengthening knowledge and practices to 488 participants, of which 343 are Government representatives and 145 participants are NGOs/Humanitarian Partners/Nigerian Red Cross.
