Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Recent floods killed at least 50 persons in 11 communities in Adamawa and injured 71 others.<\/p>\n

Executive Secretary of Adamawa Emergency Management Agency (ADSEMA), Malam Suleiman Mohammed, disclosed this on Friday in Yola when he spoke with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN).<\/p>\n

\u201cSome of the affected local government areas are Numan, Shelleng, Yola South, Yola North, Demsa, Mayo Belwa and Michika,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n

He added that the agency had provided clothes, foodstuffs, drugs, mosquito nets, blankets and buckets for victims to assuage their suffering.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe items were donated by the state government, the Federal Government and other donors,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n
