The Humanitarian Crisis in Benue Is Growing
By JACKSON AMEH | Project Leader
The humanitarian crisis in Benue State is escalating as ongoing violence continues to force families from their homes. According to Amnesty International, by 2025, at least 500,000 people had been displaced in Benue, with many struggling to access food, clean water, sanitation, shelter, and healthcare.
Each new attack adds to an already overwhelming situation. There are families who have been displaced for months or even years and still depend on humanitarian support, while new families are arriving daily after fleeing recently affected areas.
During our recent field assessment in Otukpo-Nobi, the GoGreen team saw the widespread damage and spoke with community members working to recover and rebuild. The needs we witnessed are urgent and real, from emergency shelter and food to safe water, hygiene materials, and basic household items.
Through our Feed Displaced Families in Benue, Nigeria project, GoGreen is mobilizing assistance to address these critical needs, including dignity supplies for women and girls. However, available resources remain far below the growing demand.
This is where our donors’ support makes a tangible difference. Your generosity allows us to reach families who might otherwise go without help, ensuring that no one is left behind in this crisis.
Please consider making a donation today. If you’re unable to give, sharing our campaign can help us reach others who may be able to support. Together, we can bring relief, hope, and dignity to displaced families in Benue who should not be forgotten.

Families Are Fleeing With Almost Nothing

Families Are Fleeing With Almost Nothing
When violence erupts, many families in Benue State have only minutes to escape, leaving behind nearly all of their possessions. Survival becomes the priority, with people fleeing alongside children, elderly relatives, and whatever they can carry. Essential items—food, clothing, bedding, farm equipment, livestock, documents—are often left behind, representing years of hard work lost in an instant.
During our recent visit to Otukpo-Nobi, the GoGreen team witnessed the devastation firsthand and listened to the struggles of those displaced. The aftermath of displacement brings urgent and basic needs:
- Shelter for families who have lost their homes
- Food for children and adults facing hunger
- Safe drinking water to prevent illness
- Hygiene materials for women and girls
- Soap, water containers, blankets, and sleeping mats for daily living
Through the Feed Displaced Families in Benue, Nigeria project, GoGreen is working to supply these essential relief items to families affected by conflict and displacement. These needs are simple but critically urgent—a sleeping mat means not lying on bare ground; a hygiene kit restores dignity; a food package helps a family survive the days ahead.
Your donation can provide practical, immediate relief to families who have escaped with almost nothing. Please consider supporting our efforts to help families in Benue rebuild their lives after crisis.

Children Should Not Have to Choose Hunger

Children Should Not Have to Choose Hunger Because of Conflict
Conflict disrupts entire communities, but children are often among the most deeply affected. When violence forces families from their homes, children lose access to food, education, healthcare, safe water, and the comfort of familiar surroundings.
During our recent assessment in Otukpo-Nobi, the GoGreen team witnessed firsthand the devastation left by violence and heard the urgent concerns of displaced families. For many parents, their greatest fear is how to feed their children amid so much uncertainty.
Nigeria is already facing a significant hunger crisis. According to the United Nations World Food Programme, nearly 35 million Nigerians could face acute food insecurity during the 2026 lean season. Displaced families from farming communities are at even higher risk, having lost access to land, markets, and stored food.
Through our Feed Displaced Families in Benue, Nigeria project, GoGreen is providing emergency food assistance and critical relief to families in urgent need.
Your support can put nourishment in the hands of a child who has already endured far too much. It can ease a mother’s burden and help a family begin to regain stability.
Please stand with us in supporting displaced children and families in Benue. Every donation, no matter the amount, helps bring relief and hope to those who need it most.
