This paper traces the priority action of the NGOs during emergency situation in Nigeria based on a study of previous literature about NGOs missions as majority of the Nigerian people, especially the rural communities are in support of how NGOs are training rural skills and local knowledge that were grossly underutilized by the communities.

It is also a priority for every NGO to make necessary arrangement of response plan according to the rule of laws. |
