dc.description.abstractThe study investigated the philosophy of the universal declaration of human rights (UDHR) and the plight of the internally-displaced persons (IDPs) in Ibeju Lekki, Lagos State, Nigeria (2010-2023). The study was anchored on the liberalism theory. The study adopted a qualitative design while the study population comprise IDPs (both sex). The Cochran formula was used to estimate a sample size of three hundred and eighty-four (384). The multistage sampling technique was adopted for the study. Primary data for this study were gathered through an in-depth interview guide (IDI) and a key informant interview guide (KII). The instrument was validated using face and content validity types. Data gathered were analyzed using a qualitative research analytic technique. The study found that, the psychological concerns reported by (IDPs) are alienation and self- estrangement, which result from a prolonged separation from family members, friends and acquaintances. The study also found that the Boko Haram insurgency was the major reason for migration. The study further discovered that, the financial support provided by non-governmental organizations and policymakers in compliance with camp laws and regulations is low. The study discovered that the fundamental human rights of (IDPs) that were not denied are; right to practice one's religion, the right to life, the right to culture and the arts, the right to social service, and their franchise. Based on the findings, the study recommended that, policymakers should create a legal framework that would monitor the violations of IDPs' human rights and make budgetary provisions for (IDPs). The study also recommends that the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) should be expanded to encompass IDPs. And lastly, the study recommends that security agencies should rejig/develop counter-terrorism insurgency strategies, to help reduce the number of (IDPs).
