Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>Authorities in Fashoda County, Upper Nile State, are urgently appealing for humanitarian assistance after the recent flooding affected over 1,200 households and impacted more than 8,000 people.<\/p>\n

According to Sabino Onyot, Coordinator of the Relief and Rehabilitation Commission (RRC) in Kodok, the flood devastated three key areas\u2014Lul, Dethouk, and Kodok\u2014where homes, schools, health facilities and churches were submerged and destroyed.<\/p>\n

The affected population includes residents, returnees, and internally displaced persons (IDPs).<\/p>\n

Onyot adds that the displaced people have sought refuge on higher ground in various parts of Fashoda County.<\/p>\n

However, he stresses that the community is in urgent need of food, shelter, and medical assistance.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have several Payams affected by the flood, and many people have migrated to Lul Payam for shelter. In Lul Payam alone, 500 households have been impacted,\u201d Onyot told Eye Radio on Saturday, speaking from Fashoda.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe affected population in Lul Payam includes host community members, returnees, and internally displaced persons (IDPs), with a total of around 3,000 people,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn Dethouk Payam, we have recorded 249 affected households,\u201d Onyot continued.<\/p>\n

\u201cLastly, in Kodok Payam, which is one of Fashoda\u2019s four Payams, 492 households, or roughly 1,194 individuals, have been affected by the floods,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Sabino Onyot confirmed that since the displacement, there have been 23 reported cases of snake bites in the affected areas, further complicating the already dire situation for the displaced population.<\/p>\n
