41 New Births Recorded at Makurdi IDP Camp Following Devastating Yelewata Attack

In the aftermath of the tragic armed herdsmen attack on June 13, 2025, which claimed over 200 lives in the Yelewata community, the Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camp at the Makurdi Ultra-Modern International Market has become a temporary refuge for many survivors. Amid the sorrow and disruption, a significant and hopeful development has emerged: forty-one new births have been recorded within the camp.

The Makurdi IDP camp was swiftly established to provide shelter and basic amenities to those displaced by the violence. The camp now accommodates hundreds of individuals who fled their homes in search of safety and security. Despite the challenging conditions of displacement, the arrival of new life has brought a sense of hope and resilience to the community.

Healthcare services at the camp have been mobilized to support expectant mothers and newborns. Medical personnel, including midwives and nurses, are working tirelessly to ensure safe deliveries and postnatal care. The forty-one births signify not only the continuation of life but also the strength and determination of the displaced families to rebuild and move forward.

The births also highlight the urgent need for sustained humanitarian assistance, including maternal and child healthcare, nutrition, and psychological support. Organizations working within the camp are calling for increased resources to address these needs and to improve living conditions for both new mothers and their infants.

As the displaced population at the Makurdi Ultra-Modern International Market camp continues to recover from the trauma of the Yelewata attack, the new births stand as a poignant reminder of hope amid hardship. They underscore the importance of ongoing support and solidarity from the government, humanitarian agencies, and the broader community to help these vulnerable populations heal and thrive.
