Nigeria, OCHA, Secondment HA Protection Officer
High insecurity in the region has made access to these areas extremely difficult for humanitarian actors. While Boko Haram lost territory to security forces easing access to some areas in 2015, the attacks and counter offensives overall have hampered humanitarian access due to escalation in violence. Increased coordination is highly needed to ensure coherent implementation of humanitarian response activities, with a prominent interest on Protection matters.

Contexto |
Following the aggravation of the clashes between pro-governmental forces and the extremist group Boko Haram, about 620’000 persons have sought refuge in neighbouring countries, while 2.15 million relocated among camps or host families within Nigeria in dire conditions and receiving little assistance. With Boko Haram group still operative in northern Borno State, the rural towns and villages throughout the state have been the target of attacks, suicide bombings, and IED explosions carried out by the insurgents, leading residents to flee from 22 of the 27 Local Government Areas (LGAs) in the state. Though Boko Haram activity has also reached the metropolitan area of Maiduguri, the city has been secured through efforts by the MNJTF leading many IDPs to settle within the confines of the city. With no possibility to negotiate with BH in order to obtain access to vulnerable rural areas, most humanitarian activities are compelled to remain within Maiduguri. Government and multinational task force successfully pushed the insurgents out of much of their claimed territory since 2015 and several areas have been since reclaimed to the armed group (Bama, Banki). However, as of august 2016, Boko Haram has maintained its stronghold in the Sambisa forest and continues to carry out near daily attacks in the area and neighbouring countries, making outreach humanitarian activities highly insecure ventures. Increased coordination between humanitarian response actors is deemed necessary to ensure safe access and action in recently opened areas. |
