The Niger State Commissioner for Humanitarian Affairs, Ahmad Suleiman, says over 200 bodies have been recovered following last week’s devastating floods in Mokwa Local Government Area.
The Commissioner noted that the state government activated an emergency response, distributing relief materials to displaced victims in makeshift camps.
Despite official efforts, displaced residents have decried poor camp conditions and inadequate food.
A Community volunteer Hussaini Muhammed described the camps as unfit for human habitation.
Meanwhile, search and rescue operations are still ongoing.
