The Member Representing Borgu-Agwara Federal Constituency in the National Assembly, Jafaru Mohammedi, has disclosed that no fewer than 50 houses and property worth millions of naira have been submerged and destroyed in Gallah ward in the Agwara local government area of Niger state.

Mohammedi, who was accompanied by the Agwara Council Chairman, Nura Kokoli, on the symphaty visit said he would work with the council to cushion the effect of the disaster on the people.

He promised to present the report of the flood to the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) and on the floor of the House for possible assistance to the victims.

Mohammed, who described the incident as pathetic, pledged that the victims would get assistance soon.

He advised the victims to take the incident as an act of God and prayed Allah to replenish them soon.

The legislator and the council chairman also donated the sum of N1 million as joint efforts to assist the victims.

Also, Kokoli said that the torrential rain which started in the early hours of Tuesday, lasted for several hours submerging residential houses, shops, mosques, churches, cars, motorcycles and bicycles.

He said that the flood also submerged crops, live stocks and poultries, among others and rendered many people in the area homeless.

Kokoli promised to submit a report on the flood to the Niger State Emergency Management Agency (NSEMA) with a view to assisting the victims.

He then appealed to the people of the area to desist from erecting buildings on waterways to guard against future recurrence.
