Kogi Floods : Mubarak Abuche sympathize with flood victims

• Moves to provide support to bring succour to victims

Former Aspirant for Idah/Igalamela Odolu/Ibaji/Ofu Federal Constituency of Kogi State Alhaji Mubarak Abuche and the CEO AL-Mubee GROUP Emperor Integrated Services Limited have sympathised with the Executive Governor of Kogi State, H.E. Governor Alhaji Yahaya Bello and the deputy Governor H.E. Chief Edward David Onoja and the entire people of Kogi State over the unfortunate incidence of a flood, which has displaced many communities across the State.

The reoccurrence of this disaster annually calls for concerted efforts of all and sundry towards a sustainable solution going forward. 

Our people are already grappling with global economic challenges and can’t afford nor endure this natural disaster for long.

While we will continue to provide our little support to bring succour to victims of this unfortunate disaster, I urged the federal government to direct its relevant agencies to provide urgent humanitarian intervention for victims of flood disasters across the State.

Daily Trust over the week reports that communities across Nine (9) flood-prone Local Government Areas of the state had been ravaged by flood, leading to loss of lives, destruction of property as well as displacement of hundreds of people over the past few weeks.

Hon. Mubarak said, “Floods are one of the most devastating natural disasters that can have negative effects on homes or businesses. I empathize with all Kogites, especially those who have been directly and indirectly affected by the ravaging flood that has crippled economic activities across the state 

While acknowledging the efforts of the Kogi State Government in tackling the disaster, Hon. Mubarak solicited the immediate intervention of the Fed Min of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development.
