Echo Project Manager/ Head Of Mission Jobs COOPI Nigeria
Nigeria is the country with the largest GDP of the whole
African continent and it is currently living strong internal crisis due to
several factors. In the coastal area, tensions are still ongoing, sometimes in
a very violent way, and are related to environmental associations and to the
kidnapping of several technicians who were working for oil extraction. In the
south and in the centre of the country tensions are very strong too, and really
violent, especially between farmers and breeders. But the two main issues that
are really concerning the humanitarian community are the persistence of
malnutrition and food insecurity in the Sahel area in the north of the country
and the considerable increase in the fresh wave of attacks of the terrorist
movement, the Islamic fundamentalist Boko Aram. In all the states of the North
and Centre, but especially in the three states of the North East (Yobe, Borno
and Adamawa) where the state of emergency has been declared, there are ongoing
attacks in schools, churches, shopping centers, markets and any crowded place.
The IDPs are fleeing from the most insecure areas and they are about 700.000,
while there are several thousands of refugees in the neighboring countries
(Cameroon, Niger and Chad).
Coopi, after an assessment mission to evaluate a rapid
response to the crisis of the states of the North Est of the country, is
currently organizing a start up of activities of humanitarian assistance for
the IDPs with a multi-sectorial project in Bauchi State.
