What the petition asks

https://www.naij.com/1065882-how-nigerian-officials-sexually-abuse-and-steal-from-boko-haram-victims.html
Please help me and Bayo Olupohunda @BayoOlupohunda highlight the plight of these forgotten women and children.
There are around 5,000 women and children in Internal Displacement Camps in Nigeria, they have been raped by Boko Haram terrorists and have either escaped or been released and have ended up in the IDP camps, the stigma of having been taken by BH means that many of them can't return to their homes. Corrupt officials in the camps are diverting food and medical supplies and are raping the women and girls too. Haven't these women and girls suffered enough?
