“The interventions in Illela have been possible because of strong state and local leadership, with progress driven through close collaboration between state government, @UNDPNigeria, and development partners. Together, we are advancing durable solutions that can be scaled across Sokoto State and beyond.” ~H.E. @AnnettInes, Ambassador of @GERinNigeria, reaffirming Germany’s commitment to peace, stability, and resilience in Northwest Nigeria, alongside the announcement of an additional €3 million in support.

Imagine a North West Nigeria where communities stand stronger than the shocks around them, where local institutions are trusted, young people see real opportunities, and security and development reinforce each other. This is the future the North West Prevention Facility (Phase II) is working to unlock. Grateful for the leadership and commitment from North West State Government & the unwavering support from @GERinNigeria under the stewardship of H.E. @AnnettInes. Through the North West Prevention Facility (Phase II), we are collaborating to deepen foundations for inclusive governance, fostering peace, & building resilient communities.

Patrick Swayze once said, "They told me my house smelled like dogs, and I asked them, do you know what a dog smells like? It smells like gratitude, loyalty, nobility, affection, pure unconditional love. And in spite of all they've been through, they smell no resentment. So blessed that my house smells like dogs." Dogs are family ❤
