As Nigeria joins the global community to mark World Humanitarian Day, the National Emergency Management Agency, NEMA, has called on the government, corporate organizations and all concerned citizens to add their voices to condemn attacks on humanitarian workers, civilians and infrastructure.
It also advocates bringing to an end violations and impunity with which these attacks are committed against humanitarian workers in the country.
The Director General of NEMA, Mrs Zubaida Umar in a statement says it is pertinent for everyone to join the campaign for #ActForHumanity which is the theme of the day, by getting involved through respect for International Humanitarian Laws which aims to protect humanitarian workers and their assets across the world.
The statement pays tribute to those who paid the supreme price and others who suffered various traumatic experiences from non-state armed groups, while on their life-saving duties.
It commends staff and all humanitarian workers across Nigeria who have continued to risk their lives to provide lifesaving assistance to those affected by disasters.
