I have received with great concern reports of the flooding in Benue State, displacing, from early estimates, more than 100,000 people.

I have directed @nemanigeria to immediately mobilize personnel and resources to the aid of the affected communities and persons.

I will be monitoring and getting updates on the rollout of the Federal Government's humanitarian response to the Benue flooding disaster.

My sympathies go to the Benue Govt & people.I assure that the FG will make available ALL assistance needed by the BSG & affected communities.
