Represented by the Managing Director of the ADF, Zouera Youssoufou, Mrs Buhari-Shehu said that ADF would continue to support the government in its humanitarian effort.
She said that no fewer than 362 returnees including children were registered by the ADF for the exercise on the first day where three hundred and fifty received the support.
