The recent flood that ravaged some communities in Kafanchan and some other villages in Jema’a Local Government Area of Kaduna State has been reported to have swept away two children and displaced over a thousand citizens.

Vice Chairman of Jema’a LGA, Mrs Christy Usman, disclosed this when she reviewed the Kaduna State Impact Assessment Committee on Flood on a tour of affected communities in Southern Kaduna.

She said the floods in parts of Kafanchan Municipal City, Jagindi, Atuku, Aso, and Bade wards also washed away farmlands, destroying crops worth millions of naira.

Briefing journalists after visiting the affected communities in Sanga, Jema’a, and Kachia local government areas, the Chairman of the Committee and Chief of Staff to the Governor, Malam Sani Liman Kila, said thousands of people need immediate assistance.

The Chief of Staff said the flood affected a bridge in Agom, Sanga Local Government area, cutting off five communities, just as the flood caused some houses to collapse in Nandu.

The Committee Chairman also noted that the recurrence of floods over the years had caused a deep gully that requires urgent attention in Kafanchan.

Kila said the Committee has identified narrow bridges, indiscriminate refuse dumping, and the erection of illegal structures on waterways as significant causes of floods.

While assuring that his committee will make appropriate recommendations to Governor Uba Sani after its assignment, Kila called on the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) to compliment the efforts of the State Government by providing relief materials to victims of the flood disaster.
