  • FEWS NET Special Report: a Famine Likely Occurred in Bama LGA and May Be Ongoing in Inaccessible Areas of Borno State
    December 13, 2016 A Famine likely occurred in Bama LGA and may be ongoing in inaccessible areas of Borno State This report summarizes an IPC-compatible analysis of Local Government Areas (LGAs) and select IDP concentrations in Borno State, Nigeria. The conclusions of this report have been endorsed by the IPC’s Emergency Review Committee. This analysis follows a July 2016 multi-agency alert, which warned of Famine, and builds off of the October 2016 Cadre Harmonisé analysis, which concluded that additional, more detailed analysis of Borno was needed given the elevated risk of Famine. KEY MESSAGES A Famine likely occurred in Bama and Banki towns during 2016, and in surrounding rural areas where conditions are likely to have been similar, or worse. Although this conclusion cannot be fully verified, a preponderance of the available evidence, including a representative mortality survey, suggests that Famine (IPC Phase 5) occurred in Bama LGA during 2016, when the vast majority of the LGA’s remaining population was concentrated in Bama Town and Banki Town. Analysis indicates that at least 2,000 Famine-related deaths may have occurred in Bama LGA between January and September, many of them young children. Famine may have also occurred in other parts of Borno State that were inaccessible during 2016, but not enough data is available to make this determination. While assistance has improved conditions in accessible areas of Borno State, a Famine may be ongoing in inaccessible areas where conditions could be similar to those observed in Bama LGA earlier this year. Significant assistance in Bama Town (since July) and in Banki Town (since August/September) has contributed to a reduction in mortality and the prevalence of acute malnutrition, though these improvements are tenuous and depend on the continued delivery of assistance.

  • Nigeria Where Boko Haram
    Country Policy and Information Note Nigeria: Islamist extremist groups in North East Nigeria Version 3.0 July 2021 Preface Purpose This note provides country of origin information (COI) and analysis of COI for use by Home Office decision makers handling particular types of protection and human rights claims (as set out in the Introduction section). It is not intended to be an exhaustive survey of a particular subject or theme. It is split into 2 parts: (1) an assessment of COI and other evidence; and (2) COI. These are explained in more detail below. Assessment This section analyses the evidence relevant to this note - that is information in the COI section; refugee/human rights laws and policies; and applicable caselaw - by describing this and its inter-relationships, and provides an assessment of, in general, whether one or more of the following applies: • a person is reasonably likely to face a real risk of persecution or serious harm • that the general humanitarian situation is so severe that there are substantial grounds for believing that there is a real risk of serious harm because conditions amount to inhuman or degrading treatment as within paragraphs 339C and 339CA(iii) of the Immigration Rules / Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) • that the security situation is such that there are substantial grounds for believing there is a real risk of serious harm because there exists a serious and individual threat to a civilian’s life or person by reason of indiscriminate violence in a situation of international or internal armed conflict as within paragraphs 339C and 339CA(iv) of the Immigration Rules • a person is able to obtain protection from the state (or quasi state bodies) • a person is reasonably able to relocate within a country or territory • a claim is likely to justify granting asylum, humanitarian protection or other form of leave, and • if a claim is refused, it is likely or unlikely to be certifiable as ‘clearly unfounded’ under section 94 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002.

  • II. Resources
    PERSPECTIVES ON TERRORISM Volume 8, Issue 6 II. Resources Boko Haram Attacks in Nigeria and Neighbouring Countries: A Chronology of Attacks by Ioannis Mantzikos Introduction [1] Boko Haram’s insurgency which pitted neighbour against neighbour, cost more than 4,000 lives, displaced close to half a million people, destroyed hundreds of schools and government buildings and devastated an already ravaged economy in the north-east of Nigeria, one of the country’s poorest regions.Within less than five years (2010 – 2014) the Nigerian Islamist terrorists organization Boko Haram (BH) has evolved into the most lethal of all salafist jihadist organisations. Originally directing its attacks mainly at security forces and government officials, BH’s campaign has expanded to include attacks on Christians, critical Muslim clerics, traditional leaders, suspected collaborators, UN offices, bars and girl schools. Its campaign of terrorism, ranges from targeting students at state (secular) schools to health workers involved in polio vaccination campaigns. In the first half of 2014 BH even surpassed the Islamic State in Iraq in terms of lethality, according to statistics compiled by the Intel Center.[2] On Tuesday, April 15, 2014, Boko Haram attacked a girls’ school in Chibok, Borno state, in northern Nigeria, abducting between 250-300 young girls. Boko Haram’s leader, Abubakar Shekau, released a video on May 5, threatening to sell the girls as “wives” while also expressing his ideological opposition to the idea of educating girls. The abduction of girls and subsequent developments have prompted several nations to send logistical support teamswhile the Nigerian government offered a $300,000 reward for information leading to the girls’ rescue.

  • 1 AF 23 PROGRESS REPORT A) SUMMARY During the Period
    AF 23 PROGRESS REPORT A) SUMMARY During the period covered by this report, the Principal Investigator traveled to the Pennsylvania State University and the Columbia University, USA for consultations with mentors and collaborators and to access necessary literature. The most important subject discussed by the research group during the period was the format of the final report. We came to the conclusion that given the multiplicity of project objectives and approaches, the purpose of the report will be best served in a volume divided into sections, each with its own objectives and findings. Also during the period, field surveys were extended to the Sahel Zone in the northeastern corner of Nigeria. Four of our papers earlier submitted to journals in the United Kingdom, India and Singapore respectively were accepted for publication. Analysis of the impacts of climate variability and climate change progressed satisfactorily. Six project reports were emerging from the participation of students. During the next eight months, our intention is to continue work along the present lines. However emphasis will shift to the preparation of drafts of final report. B) TASKS PERFORMED AND OUTPUTS PRODUCED REPORT OUTLINE One important subject discussed during the period under review is the format of the final report. We came to the conclusion that given the multiplicity of project objectives, the purpose of the report will be best served in a single volume divided into sections, each with its own structure, approaches and findings. There is an introductory chapter in which we present in an outline the conceptual framework, giving the historical details of how the initial biophysical conceptualization focused on crop productivity, acquired a significant human dimension and a focus on food security.
