Stakeholders including professors of history and peace and conflict strategists among others have called for the improved situation of the plight of the Palestinians and the Internationally Displaced Persons (IDPs) across the country.
This, they noted, becomes imperative because of the pitiable plight of the Palestinian refugees who have been displaced from their ancestral homes due to no fault of theirs and the worsening living conditions of IDPs in the country.
