The UK Government supports the assessment of humanitarian needs in Northern Nigeria through OCHA, the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs. Although figures are difficult to quantify, OCHA estimate 5.9 million people have been affected by the insurgency in northeast Nigeria and an estimated 350,000 people have been displacedsince May 2013, both within Nigeria and across the borders into Chad, Niger and Cameroon. Most displaced people are living in host communities, although around 5,000 are in camps. OCHA has assessed the priority needs of affected people as food, water, health and shelter.

The TR are primarily focused on countries exporting and/ or infected with wild polio virus. The Government fully supports the WHO statement.

The UK remains deeply committed to the eradication of polio, and is a long-time supporter of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative. At the Global Vaccine Summit in Abu Dhabi in 2013 DFID pledged up to £300 million for polio eradication. In 2013 DFID also provided additional support for the outbreaks in the Horn of Africa and Syria.
