LAGOS, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA) – Peter Obi’s visit to the displaced persons both from the flood disaster and victims of herdsmen attacks camped in Daudu, Benue State, brought hope to the displaced as he donated N5m to assist them.
The candidate of the Labour Party (LP) during his visit, tasked the Federal Government to be proactive in mitigating the effects of the nationwide floods caused by the failure to prepare for the release of excess water from Cameroon and the heavily silted River Benue.
Obi disclosed this in Makurdi, the Benue State capital, on Thursday where he had gone as part of his follow-up visit to the state governor Samuel Ortom during which he announced the suspension of his campaign to allow him to show support to victims of the flood disaster.
