“A lot still need to be done including more foodstuffs, medical consultations, medications, clothing’s, Insecticides treated nets, clothings, temporary hygiene infrastructures (mobile toilets), among others.

“Indeed, no government may be able to adequately plan for disaster (man -made or natural) and when it happens it knows no creed, class or culture, it affects everyone in one way or the other.

The procurement and distribution of food materials were carried out by a member organization of Kogi NGOs Network, (KONGONET).
