Switzerland has committed approximately N1.9 billion (about $1.2 million) to support humanitarian efforts addressing the severe floods in Nigeria, including the capital of Borno State, Maiduguri. The funding will be directed through the Nigeria Humanitarian Fund, managed by the United Nations.

The contribution is expected to bolster the Nigerian Government’s ongoing response to the crisis, providing multi-sectoral assistance to flood-affected individuals.

The Switz government said the support will focus on meeting immediate basic needs, including health services, water and sanitation measures to prevent cholera outbreaks, temporary shelter, food security, and protection services.

Swiss Ambassador to Nigeria, H.E. Mr. Nicolas Lang, expressed his satisfaction with Switzerland’s role in alleviating the suffering of those impacted by the floods. “This contribution to the Nigeria Humanitarian Fund directly supports the government’s efforts to provide life-saving assistance,” he stated.

“Humanitarian support has been a key pillar of our longstanding relationship with Nigeria. We are also exploring ways to enhance disaster preparedness.”
