In response to severe flooding in parts of Maiduguri, the Nigerian Army has stepped up to provide critical support to hundreds of residents displaced by the disaster on Monday Night.
As floodwaters continue to ravage parts of the city, many families have been forced from their homes, seeking refuge on the streets and in makeshift shelters.
The Nigerian Army has been instrumental in offering immediate relief, providing food, water, and temporary shelter for those affected.
The flooding, which began earlier last week, has continued to worsen, leaving many residents stranded.
With parts of the city submerged and infrastructure damaged, the situation has become increasingly dire for those living in the affected areas.
The Nigerian Army has been working tirelessly to evacuate people from high-risk zones and offer them assistance in the face of the disaster.
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has expressed his gratitude to the Nigerian Army for their selfless efforts and sacrifices during this challenging time.
In a statement, the President commended the military for their quick response and ongoing commitment to ensuring the safety and well-being of those affected by the floods.
“The Nigerian Army has once again shown its dedication to the welfare of our citizens. Their actions during this crisis are a testament to their professionalism and their unwavering resolve to protect and serve the people of Nigeria,” President Tinubu stated.
He also urged all relevant agencies to continue providing aid and support to the flood victims as the situation develops.
As rescue and relief efforts continue, many hope for the floodwaters to recede soon so that rebuilding and recovery can begin.
In the meantime, the Nigerian Army remains on the ground, working alongside other emergency services to ensure that those displaced by the floods are taken care of.
