[Talk-ng] import of IDP camp shelters

[Samuel Aiyeoribe]

Hi Rafael,

Good to hear from you and also willing to help as usual.
@Sebastian Langer <sebastian.langer87 at gmail.com>, Rafael is the boss when
it comes to importing job 👐.

About the Nigeria OSM community, we have a WhatsApp group account where
more conversation takes place.

Above all like Rafael have stated, the most important thing is the
copyright on the data if this data is open
and the source will be happy for it to go on OpenStreetMap. This is
actually the starting point.

I look forward to hearing from you on this @Sebastian Langer

Samuel
