This report, which presents the results from Round 41 of Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) assessments carried out by the
International Organization for Migration (IOM), aims to improve the understanding of the scope of internal displacement and
return movements in north-east Nigeria. The report covers the period from 14 February to 30 March 2022 and reflects the
trends from the six states in Nigeria’s north-east geopolitical zone. This zone is the most affected by the conflict and consists of
the following states: Adamawa, Bauchi, Borno, Gombe, Taraba and Yobe.


In Round 41, a total of 2,197,824 Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) were identified in 452,219 households. This signified an
increase of 1 per cent (or 26,172 individuals) compared to Round 40 when 2,171,652 IDPs were recorded (March 2022). When
considering the number of IDP individuals in the past 12 months, the number of IDPs in north-east Nigeria has increased by less
than one per cent or 6,631 individuals.
