Goje added that 75 fatalities had been reported as a direct consequence of windstorms and floods with many more lives at risk across 10 area councils from May to date.

“Including 11 due to boat mishaps, over 200 sustained injuries and were treated and discharged free,” he added.

“This does not include Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) returnee communities who are just returning and have limited access to farmlands,” he said.

He pointed out that preliminary reports and desk review indicate that so far, 92 water points and lots of wash facilities, agricultural products, and livestock were also affected.

He said the agency had successfully relocated some victims in worse-hit communities to approved public places and safe host neighbouring communities.

“SEMA has provided and distributed first-line food baskets to some of the affected population.

“We invited all resident, humanitarian, and development partners to plan for medium and long-term responses and recovery using the state humanitarian coordination platform to mobilise resources for effective multi-sectoral disaster responses,” he added.
