Background of the Study:
Damboa, located in Borno State, has been severely impacted by the Boko Haram insurgency, which has led to widespread displacement, loss of life, and violations of human rights. The government, both at the state and federal levels, has been tasked with responding to these violations and ensuring the protection of citizens' rights. However, the effectiveness of government responses remains a topic of debate, particularly in conflict-affected areas like Damboa. This study seeks to examine how the government has addressed human rights violations in Damboa, focusing on its strategies for protecting civilians, providing justice for victims, and restoring law and order.
The role of the government in conflict zones is crucial, not only in terms of security but also in ensuring that human rights are protected and violations are investigated. In Damboa, however, challenges such as inadequate infrastructure, security concerns, and political instability may hinder the government’s ability to provide effective responses. This study will explore the nature and effectiveness of government actions in addressing human rights violations and protecting civilians in Damboa.
Statement of the Problem:
Human rights violations in Damboa, exacerbated by insurgency and conflict, continue to threaten the safety and dignity of citizens. Despite efforts by the government to address these issues, challenges such as inadequate resources, corruption, and insecurity persist, preventing effective human rights protection. This study aims to evaluate the government’s responses to these violations and assess their impact on human rights in the region.

-
