Ndume equally commended the State governor, Professor Babagana Zulum over the latter efforts in the ongoing Reconstruction, Rehabilitation and Resettlement (RRR) of citizens in the North East state displaced as a result of activities of insurgents, who have now been resettled in their homes in the ten (10) communities of Gwoza Local Government Area.
The resettled IDPs are from 10 communities in Gwoza, including Gwoza, Pulka, Limankara, Warabe, Ngoshe, Kirawa, Izge, Bitta, Hambagtha, Modube, and Yamtake.
