The Kibaku Area Development Association (KADA) has appealed to the Federal Government and the international community over persistent attacks and displacement in Kautikari town and surrounding communities in Chibok, Borno.
This is contained in a statement signed by the association’s National President Nkeki Mutah, and National General Secretary Ayuba Chiroma, in Abuja on Tuesday.
The association expressed deep concern over what it described as coordinated and recurring assaults by Boko Haram insurgents which have left residents in fear and forced many to flee their homes.
KADA said the situation in Kautikari and other Kibaku communities has become dire, with continuous attacks disrupting livelihoods, destroying property and worsening the humanitarian crisis in the area.
The association called for immediate and decisive action by security agencies to protect lives and restore peace, stressing that the people of the affected communities have endured prolonged suffering with little relief.
They also appealed to humanitarian organisations to urgently provide assistance to displaced persons, particularly women and children who are most vulnerable.
“KADA is calling on the Federal Government, security agencies, and the international community to act swiftly to halt these attacks and ensure the safe return of displaced residents.”
The association further urged stakeholders to prioritise the security of Chibok and its environs, noting that sustainable peace is critical to rebuilding the affected communities and restoring normalcy.
KADA reaffirmed its commitment to advocating for the safety and welfare of the Kibaku people, while calling for collective efforts to end insurgency in the region
