Godwin Akpos, the Iginabou of Ajapa area, who confirmed the incident, described the flood as worrisome, noting that people have been forced to abandon their houses.<\/p>\n

According to him, the flooding have destroyed farmlands and resulted in economic hardship for the people.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cThe situation (flood) has badly affected the whole community, no house was spared including schools and churches.<\/p>\n

\u201cPresently, there is even serious starvation and famine in the community.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt started about four days ago but it is getting worst. All our houses and property are gone.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is unfortunate that we even lost two children to the incident.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
