A devastating flood in Maiduguri has resulted in significant loss of life and property. The disaster has claimed the lives of at least 30 people, leaving families and communities in mourning.
The flood has also caused widespread displacement, with over 414,000 people forced to flee their homes. This has put a huge strain on resources and infrastructure, making it challenging for authorities to provide adequate support.
The sheer scale of the disaster is staggering, with over 23,000 households affected and water levels receding after inundating nearly 70% of the city. The impact on the community is immense, with many people left without access to basic necessities.
The government is working to provide aid and relief to those affected, including cash distributions and essential supplies. It is crucial that the community receives the support they need to recover from this devastating disaster. Our thoughts are with those affected, and we hope for a swift and effective response to this crisis.
