Metuh Tasks Political Leaders To Help IDPsThe National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Olisa Metuh, has called on political leaders to come to the rescue of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and other less privileged in the country.

The PDP spokesman made this appeal during a visit to the IDPs camp in Wassa in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital.

He also urged members of the business community to assist in addressing the plight of the IDPs and other less privileged.

Mr Metuh said that the deplorable condition he met at the IDPs camp called for concern and urged well-meaning Nigerians to step in and help the displaced occupants of the camp.

It is estimated that over 1.5 million people are living in internal displacement where they lack appropriate shelter, food, water, sanitation, healthcare, child protection and educational opportunities.
