The United Nations (UN) says no fewer than 414,000 people have been displaced by the devastating flood in Maiduguri, the Borno State capital on Tuesday.

Ms Ann Weru, Head of Public Information, UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) Abuja, stated this in a Media Advisory.

Weru said that the UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in Nigeria, Mohamed Malick Fall, plans to address the media on the issue.

She said that the data was collected by the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) as of 11 September 2024.

“NEMA’s records also show that 37 people died, and about 58 people sustained injuries,” she said.

Access to hospitals, schools and markets, she added has been hampered.

“Damage to infrastructure, including bridges, were recorded.

“Evacuation of people in high-risk areas to safer ground is ongoing, amid concerns about the risk of disease outbreaks,” she said.

She said that Mr Mohamed Fall, the United Nations Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in Nigeria, will visit areas impacted by the flooding in Maiduguri and meet with affected people, local authorities and humanitarian partners.

Government officials, humanitarian partners, representatives of UN agencies and donors, she said, will join Fall at a news conference later in the day. (NAN
