Abstract
Internal Displacement is an off shoot of insurgency taken place in North-east, Nigeria. Internally Displaced Person (IDPs) in the North-east, Nigeria are suffering hardships because their needs are not adequately catered for by the government. The intervention of the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) plays no small role in ameliorating the conditions of the IDPs.
Finding shows that the government and the people need to take up the collective responsibilities to prevent insurgency. The OCHA 2019-2020 report has showed strategies to improve the conditions of IDPs. This study shows that there are some strategies not mentioned in the OCHA report that are safe for use which are contained under the Islamic Law. These Islamic Law strategies shall be discussed in this paper for possible adoption.
