Rescue Efforts Ongoing

Speaking on Sunday in Maiduguri, NEMA’s North-East Zonal Coordinator, Mr. Sirajo Garba, confirmed the progress of rescue operations. He emphasized the agency’s unwavering commitment to delivering essential aid to those affected by the disaster.

“As rescue efforts continue, we are dedicated to ensuring that all victims receive the necessary support during this challenging period,” Garba said.

NEMA’s Emergency Response Team (ERT) has been actively engaged in search and rescue missions. Efforts are ongoing to locate and assist those still in need.

Medical Assistance and Water Supply

In addition to rescue efforts, NEMA’s Medical Intensive Care Unit has provided crucial medical outreach, offering first aid and treatment to 171 individuals across various camps.

“Our medical teams are on the ground, ready to provide immediate care to those who need it most,” Garba added.

Water supply has become a critical concern in affected areas, and NEMA has deployed a water tanker to the Fannami Gubio Camp, which has been experiencing severe shortages. The agency is ensuring round-the-clock access to potable water.

Water Purification and Sanitation Measures

To further address the water crisis, water purification trucks from NEMA’s headquarters are on standby to treat and recycle floodwaters in areas suffering from acute shortages.

NEMA is also conducting ongoing monitoring and evaluation, and its team recently accompanied a high-level United Nations delegation on a visit to several camps in the region.

Collaboration with Medical and Sanitation Partners

NEMA has partnered with Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) to establish a temporary health facility at the Modu Fannami Camp, providing much-needed medical services. The agency is ensuring that all camps receive the necessary support and resources.

In coordination with the Borno State Environmental Protection Agency, NEMA has deployed sanitation teams to underserved camps. The agency has also partnered with civil society organizations to distribute additional cooking pots and utensils in response to the lack of adequate cooking materials.

Looking Ahead: Strengthening Support for Camps

NEMA is working to establish a Camp Clinic at Fannami Gubio Camp to provide ongoing medical care. Additionally, essential medical supplies are being delivered to support continuous healthcare in the region.

The agency remains proactive in addressing the urgent needs of flood victims, ensuring that vital resources, including water, medical care, and sanitation, are accessible to all.
