Flood in Nigeria

Nigeria is currently experiencing severe flooding across multiple states, particularly in the northern regions. Intense rainfall and overflowing rivers have resulted in extensive damage.

The flooding has destroyed homes, forced communities to evacuate, and washed away thousands of hectares of agricultural farmland, exacerbating food supplies, a critical concern in the nation.

The circumstances are anticipated to worsen, as September and October generally mark the height of the rainy season.
