Severe flooding in Nigeria has resulted in at least 170 deaths and displaced over 205,000 people, with the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) reporting the majority of fatalities concentrated in the northern regions. The floods, exacerbated by heavy rains and the overflowing Niger and Benue rivers, have left nearly 2,000 people injured and destroyed more than 100,000 hectares of agricultural land, raising concerns about food security. Meteorological authorities warn that the torrential rains could continue for the next month, affecting additional areas of the country. The situation reflects ongoing challenges with inadequate drainage infrastructure, which has been worsened by climate change. In neighboring countries like Niger and Chad, similar flooding has also caused significant displacement and economic strain. The cumulative impact of these floods highlights the persistent vulnerability of West African nations to climate-related disasters.
