September 2025

10 years in IDP Camps … and counting …

Lay Faithful Trust Foundation, in collaboration with the Youth Empowerment and Restoration Initiative, conducted another relief project to Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in Maiduguri, Borno State. This aid mission by the Foundation is a follow-on to earlier welfare and educational support in the eight IDP camps within the Maiduguri metropolis. The educational support for the children is still active to this day.

With funding support from the Youth Empowerment and Restoration Initiative and other kind-hearted Christian brethren, a combined humanitarian mission for four of the IDP camps was held at the CAN Centre IDP camp in September 2025. Food items were distributed to the brethren in need.

Some of the beneficiaries have called the IDP camps "home" for over ten years. Persistent terrorist attacks have made any prospect of returning to their ancestral homes impossible. Lacking assistance, some have remained trapped in the IDP camps for over a decade, unable to build a new life anywhere else in Nigeria. We call on the government to fulfil its constitutional obligations to the IDPs. Section 14(2)b of the constitution states that “the security and welfare of the people shall be the primary purpose of government;”

We thank the brethren who consistently support the persecuted Christians. God bless you and replenish you abundantly. We also thank the Lay Faithful team in Maiduguri for faithfully executing the project.

Your brother in Christ,
