ABSTRACT
This study examines the socio-economic problems of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in Yerwa district of Maiduguri Borno State. There are IDPs in host communities apart from those in government IDPs camps, taking a host community of Yerwa district as my study area, to research on their socio economic problems, to analyze their demographic characteristics of the IDPs and the economic conditions of IDPs in Yerwa district. In my attempt to analyze and address the problem we used personal observation and structured questioners, while primary methods was employed in gathering and analyzing data. A total of 150 IDPs in Yerwa district were sampled through questionnaire administration while 137 were returned successfully. A great deal therefore, remains to be done to address IDPs protection and assistance needs to find durable solution to their plight and to prevent further displacement from taking place.
