From extant literature, scholars have identified some gaps, thus calling for new insights to address the logistics issues of this nature. The perceived barriers and strategic steps toward reducing these obstacles and are extensively revealed in this paper. We concluded that problems associated with the inefficiencies identified in humanitarian logistics of this domain is because of misplaced hierarchy of needs  of internally displaced persons (IDPs). Moreover, there are no speculated procedures for addressing matters of such concern as expected from the national heads such as the government; rather tardiness is associated with the whole process, and there is often no timeliness in deriving support from concerned stakeholders. Furthermore, agencies are not duly involved in planning ahead for such events, thus leading to sub-optimality in the humanitarian supply chain processes. Having observed these lapses associated with logistics of humanitarian concerns, especially as it relates to the IDPs, we recommended adequate planning and proactive measures that should be deployed to arrest such occurrences and assuage their negative effects.
