▶ Answer & Explanation
Correct answer: C. 2 and 3
Bidibidi is a significant refugee settlement, but it is located in Uganda, not Kenya. Dadaab, on the other hand, is a major refugee complex in Kenya that hosts a large population of Somali refugees fleeing conflict in their home country. The civil war in South Sudan has also led to a significant number of refugees seeking shelter in neighbouring countries, including Uganda, where Bidibidi is situated.
