Adio stated that the health intervention rendered to the IDPs was divided into three stages, including HIV/AIDS testing, medical services and mental health services.

The KWASACA official explained that medical health workers were on ground to check the IDPs, diagnose and treat them of various ailments.

The Wakilin Hausawa in Ilorin, Alhaji Umar Abdullahi-Bakabe, commended the agency for the efforts.

He said that the IDPs needed assistance as they were faced with different challenges, including health.

Mrs Yaha Abdullahi, an IDP, said she had been having problems of tumour on her face with nobody to help her.
