“The federal government has a bigger project for these young children, the Presidential Initiative Project for the Northeast which comprises short, medium and long term projects," Osinbajo said.
"Part of it is education for the children that are now at IDP camps and for all children who have been displaced. Government must create more opportunities for displaced children."

He promised that the government will ensure that all internally displaced persons (IDPs) can return home.
