The Presidential Candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi has sympathised with victims and communities affected by flood.
Obi also called on the federal government and the National Emergency Management Agency of Nigeria (NEMA), to assist those affected by the natural disaster.
The former governor of Anambra state tweeted this on Tuesday morning, stating that over 600 lives were reportedly lost, and over 2 million people displaced.
He wrote, “The devastating enormity of the 2022 flooding and the damages it has wreaked on several states, namely, Benue, Kogi, Anambra, Delta, Bayelsa and Nasarawa, is mind-boggling. So far, over 600 lives were reportedly lost, and over 2 million people displaced.
“I sympathize with those directly affected by the loss of lives and properties. At a time our country contends with rising food insecurity due to banditry and insurgency, the ravaging floods will have deleterious consequences on food production, as well as orchestrate higher food prices. I call on FGN and NEMA to expeditiously assist those affected by this natural disaster. -PO.”
