“The current number of deaths were 151. At least 3,018 people were displaced, 503 households and 265 houses were affected, and three communities were completely destroyed,” Hussain said.
Mokwa is an important trading link between the merchants from the south and food producers from northern Nigeria, which is why the consequences are floods and humanitarian and economic.
In response to the disaster, the National Agency for Extraordinary Situations held a meeting with key partners in the region, with the aim of improving preparedness and measurement measures. The campaign entitled “Strengthening resistance, improving preparedness and answers” brought together disaster management officials and partners to consider long-term solutions for frequent floods.
President Bol Tinubu ordered the Agency and Security Forces to strengthen search and rescue surgery in affected communities, emphasizing the urgency of the government’s response.
