Sir: In Kogi State, it’s apparent that the devastating effects of flooding have left hundreds of people homeless, and many lost their lives while properties eroded worth billions of naira. Painfully, most of the victims are less privileged individuals living from hand to mouth.
Apart from that, the victims are vulnerable to dangerous animals such as snakes, scorpions, and assassin bugs among others. Therefore, the victim’s life is in a serious dilemma and if care is not taken, many would still lose their lives instead of surviving in the Internally Displaced Person Camps. Disgustingly, it was alleged some unscrupulous elements among the camp aides are secretly diverting what is meant for the flood victims and leaving them with no food to eat despite the pitiful situation in the camps. The point is if people who are in need are to be marauded by heartless buglers then we have a long way to go in this country.
