ICRC Reveals 68% of Missing People in Nigeria Still Unaccounted For

The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) reported that 68% of missing people in Nigeria are still unaccounted for, causing anguish among families. Mr.

Ishaku Luka, ICRC Damaturu's Protection of Family Links Team Leader, highlighted the distressing situation on the International Day of the Disappeared. The ongoing insurgency in Northeast Nigeria, particularly in Yobe State, has led to a significant number of missing persons, with cases recorded in Gujba Local Government Area.

The plight of missing individuals, including the abduction of critics like Abubakar Idris (Dadiyata), has raised concerns about the traumatic experiences faced by families and the need for resolution.
