The Borno State Governor, Babagana Umara Zulum on Monday commissioned 300 units of resettlement houses built for citizens affected by Boko Haram attacks in Rumirgo town of Askira-Uba Local Government Area in southern Borno State.
The project is one of several housing interventions from which about 10,000 resettlement houses were freshly built by the Zulum administration for IDPs and refugees.
Rumirgo was one of the communities affected by the over decade old crisis which left many homes and public structures destroyed.
