Hundreds of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) from Fufore and Malkohi camps in Adamawa staged peaceful protests over lack of food in their camps.
The IDPs, mostly women and children, on Wednesday appealed to President Muhammadu Buhari to intervene in their plight.
The IDPs, who are mostly from Borno,have been in the two camps for over two years waiting to be evacuated to their state of origin.
The IDPs complain that many families in the camps were in critical living conditions due to hunger.
