Authorities are scrambling to rescue residents in Borno State as a collapsed dam creates severe flooding, impacting a million people and straining local resources.
Local officials have declared this flooding event the worst in Borno State in two decades, with reports indicating a significant portion of Maiduguri is under water.
Borno State's governor Zulum has expressed concerns over potential waterborne diseases as sewer systems are overwhelmed by floodwaters, adding urgency to the shelter and medical supply efforts.
Despite promises from Nigeria's Vice President to deliver urgent aid to displaced residents, reports indicate that very few supplies have actually reached those in need.
