President Ahmed Bola Tinubu has arrived in Maiduguri to extend his sympathies to the government and people of Borno State following the devastating flood caused by the Alau Dam.

According to reports, the president touched down in Maiduguri at approximately 3:15 pm, where he was welcomed by Governor Babagana Zulum.

The flood, which struck earlier in the week, submerged large portions of Maiduguri, resulting in significant loss of life and widespread destruction of properties.

During his visit, President Tinubu is expected to pay a courtesy visit to the Shehu of Borno, Abubakar Umar-Garbai El-Kaneni.

From there, he plans to visit one of the camps set up to house those displaced by the disaster and offer support to the affected communities.

The flood has caused extensive damage across the state, leading the Borno government to establish 36 camps to accommodate the thousands of displaced individuals.

The president’s visit is seen as a significant gesture of solidarity, as efforts continue to provide relief to those impacted by the calamity.

The flood’s aftermath has been devastating, with residents struggling to recover from the destruction of homes and essential infrastructure.

Government agencies and humanitarian organizations have been working around the clock to provide relief, but the challenges remain overwhelming.

Many are hopeful that the president’s visit will not only bring much-needed aid but also shine a light on the urgent need for long-term solutions to prevent similar disasters in the future.
