The Senator representing Kogi Central Senatorial District, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, announced the delivery of relief materials from the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) to flood victims in Kogi State. The aid was distributed in Abuja on Sunday, following reports of severe flooding in the region.
The relief package includes food, clean water, and temporary shelter materials aimed at addressing immediate needs. Akpoti-Uduaghan pledged to support the rebuilding of damaged homes in the affected areas. She emphasized that the intervention goes beyond temporary relief, aiming to restore normalcy for the displaced residents.
This action follows recent heavy rains that caused widespread flooding in parts of Kogi State, displacing hundreds of families. Local authorities reported that the flooding has disrupted daily life and damaged infrastructure. Akpoti-Uduaghan’s initiative comes as part of ongoing efforts to provide support to communities affected by natural disasters. The distribution of aid was coordinated with local officials and humanitarian organizations.
