The Impacts of the North-East Nigerian Humanitarian Crisis on the Educational Rights of Internally Displaced Children in Michika Local Government Area of Adamawa State, Nigeria

Abstract

The study is an attempt to assess the impacts of the boko-haram insurgency on the educational rights of children in Michika local government of Adamawa state. The study adopted the use of secondary data gathered from news-papers, magazines, journals, government and Non-governmental organizations publications. The study revealed that the Nigerian government has not lived up to expectation as thousands of children are still out of school or at worst learning under trees or some make –shift class made out of the destroyed structures. Based on the above; recommendations were made to the Nigerian federal; state and the local government to properly  look into the plight of the children in the northeast by making sure such vulnerable children enjoy their right to education.
