He made the call during a courtesy call on him by the Federal Commissioner, Natural Commission, Natural Commission for Refugees, Migrants and IDPs, Tijani Ahmed, in Abuja.
A statement on Thursday by the Chief Press Secretary to the Deputy Speaker, Livinus Nwabughiogu, quote Kalu as attributing some of the displacements to the impact of natural disasters such as erosion.
