The organisations lauded the Adamawa State government for carrying along with the needs of victims of what he described as one of the worst floods ever experienced in the state.

Represented by the Commissioner of Humanitarian Services, Barrister Bello Diram, Governor Ahmadu Fintiri said the state has been playing its part to assist the flood victims, and had gone from recovery and rehabilitation to development processes aimed at preventing future floods.
