Maiduguri flood devastating, says Zulum

 

The Borno state governor, Babagana Unara Zulum, Wednesday  personally visited camps where victims of Monday’s devastating flood in Maiduguri were camped.

In all the places he visited  Tuesday, Zulum sympathized with the victims and assured them of proper care until the water receded and people returned to their houses.

“I am disturbed by the calamity that befell us on Monday, resulting from the increased volume. We are doing everything possible to provide relief to our people.”

“We will provide all the necessary relief support to you, and we will ensure you return to your houses as soon as the situation improves for the best,” Zulum said.

It will be recalled that in the last few days, some states in the North-east zone  have experienced terrible  flood disasters this year which have been attributed to the high volume of rainfall.

In a similar vein, areas in Chad and Cameroon Republics that are prone to flooding and share borders with communities in Borno state also experience flooding which damage  was believed to be twice or thrice worse than similar calamity that bedeviled the state capital of borno state, Maiduguri  City on 10th December, 1994 during late  Gen. Sani Abacha where lives were lost, public and private  properties worth billions of naira were destroyed by the flood disaster.
