The United Nations Development Programme has given assurance to partner the Yobe State government to resettle the Malumdunari community displaced by the Boko Haram insurgency.
Mohamed Yahya, UNDP Resident Representative in Nigeria, stated this yesterday while on tour of the ruins of Malumdunari village.
The resident representative who led a high-powered delegation expressed delight with the willingness of the displaced persons to return to their community.
Governor Mai Mala Buni, in a statement by Mamman Mohammed, his Director Press Affairs, said Malumdunari was the only displaced community yet to resettle after the return of peace and security following the Boko Haram insurgency crisis.
