dc.description.abstractThe number of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) across the globe, especially in developing countries, is increasing on a daily basis. Additionally, the conditions of these IDPs continue to raise questions. Governments across the globe and Nigeria in particular have responded to these challenges, but the situation is far from amelioration. Against this backdrop, this study examined the root cause, nature and challenges of the IDPs, government interventions and the IDPs response in Benue, Nigeria. This paper argues that various interventions are laudable, but is by no means a solution. It is better understood as a specific response to a man-made and natural driven conflict that requires a broader, inclusive and sustainable solution.
