The National Emergency Management Agency on Sunday presented relief materials to hundreds of Internally Displaced Persons in six satellite camps in Monguno, Borno State.
Alhaji Muhammad Kanar, the NEMA North-East Zonal Coordinator, presented the materials to the IDPs at a ceremony in Monguno, headquarters of Monguno Local Government Area.
Kanar said the gesture was aimed at providing succour to the IDPs who were rescued by the military from suspected Boko Haram hideouts.

He urged them to consider their predicament as an act of God and utilise the items judiciously.
Kanar said the exercise would continue as more people were expected to be rescued by the military in their current war against terrorism.
