The Yobe State Government has reaffirmed its commitment to strengthening partnerships with international development partners to advance governance-led durable solutions for communities affected by displacement and conflict.

A joint delegation comprising representatives of the European Union (EU), France, Germany, Switzerland, United Nations agencies, and other development partners visited the state to assess ongoing efforts aimed at transitioning from humanitarian response to sustainable recovery.

As part of the EU-funded Support for Internally Displaced Persons in North-East Nigeria (SIDPIN) Programme, the state government has allocated 14 acres of land for the construction of 100 housing units, while also prioritising urban planning, livelihood development, and the integration of displaced populations into host communities.

The visiting delegation commended Yobe’s government-led approach, recognising the state’s efforts as an emerging model for implementing durable solutions to displacement
