HON. NDAKENE VISITS NEMA, SEEKS ASSISTANCE FOR FLOOD VICTIMS

The Honourable Member Representing the good people of Edu/Moro/Patigi Federal Constituency, Hon. Ahmed Abubakar Ndakene has sought the intervention of the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), in alleviating the sufferings of communities affected by flood in Edu, Moro and Patigi Local Government Areas of his Constituency.

Earlier this week, the agrarian communities in Edu, Moro and Patigi Local Governments were devastated by flood which submerged several hectares of farmland making them inaccessible, leading to loss of farm produce worth millions of Naira. The victims, whose only source of livelihood is farming, have equally been rendered homeless leaving them to the vagaries of the elements.

Honourable Ndakene, who was touched by the plight of the victims, called on NEMA to act with dispatch in order to provide succour to the affected people. In his letter dated 11th day of September, 2020, Hon. Ndakene listed all the affected communities to ensure that none was left out in government intervention.

While reacting to the menace of flooding, the legislator said government has a duty to be there for the people in time of emergency and noted that flooding has spillover effect on food security, and it has the tendency of dampening the morale of farmers where they are left on their own.

In the same vein, Latta-Nna community which was engulfed by communal clash recently, will soon heave a sigh of relief, as Hon. Ndakene's earlier call for assistance has been approved by NEMA, and relief materials will soon reach the victims of the violence.

Nice move by the people's representative.

Praise a man when he's done great and scold him when he's wrong. .


Weldone Sir.... You're doing well...Oiiiin
