President Muhammadu Buhari has
finally reacted to the flood in Benue State, which has rendered over 100,000
persons homeless.
Buhari consequently directed the
National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) to immediately mobilize personnel
and resources to come to the aid of the victims of the flooding.
A statement by the presidential
spokesman, Garba Shehu said the President was closely monitoring the situation,
and will be receiving regular updates on the scale of the disaster, as well as
the Federal Government’s humanitarian response.
“The President extends his
sympathies to the Government and people of Benue State, and assures that the
Federal Government will make available any assistance needed to enable the
State Government and the affected communities cope with and surmount the impact
of the flooding,” he added.
