“Also people who are not direct victims of the flood but domiciled in areas along the flood route are also suffering the brunt of the consequence in terms of food shortage, worsening inflation, and power outages which have resulted in a sharp increase in the price of common items, a measure of garri is now sold for N2500, a cup of rice is now sold for N350, and a gallon of groundnut oil now N8000, the suffering is excruciating and painful”

 

Onuesoke also called on the government, political elite, political party candidates, and other stakeholders to come to the rescue of the people, saying that all hands must be on deck to bring succour and relief to the victims of the ravaging flood”

 

“Government, political stakeholders, parties candidate and other stakeholders must brace up and come to the rescue of the people, people are dying and everyone must come together to bring relief and succour to the people, political parties must slow down campaign activities and show compassion and empathy to the people by providing shelter for displaced persons, food items, medical support and other psychological support to enable the people to have the courage to overcome and face these trying times ”, Onuesoke concluded.
