UN resident and humanitarian coordinator, Mohammed Malik Fall, said in Maiduguri yesterday, following a visit to assess the situation.

Fall emphasised that the visit was aimed at gathering first-hand information on the flood victims and determining their immediate and long-term needs.

He noted that the flood claimed the lives of 37 people, with 58 others hospitalised due to injuries and health complications.

“Today’s visit to Borno was to meet with the affected flood victims, local authorities, humanitarian partners, government officials, and representatives from UN agencies and donors,” Fall said during the briefing. The floods have displaced over 414,000 residents across Maiduguri and parts of Jere Local Council, while also damaging critical infrastructure, including bridges, hospitals, schools, and markets.

“These disruptions have hindered healthcare services and business activities, further complicating the lives of those affected,” he said.

According to Fall, the UN’s top priority is the immediate evacuation and rescue of people in high-risk areas, followed by providing essential supplies and support.

He also expressed concerns about the potential for disease outbreaks due to the flooding.
Governor Babagana Zulum, who was also present during the visit, called for a comprehensive flood disaster assessment in collaboration with the UN and development partners.
