“Some of the affected houses were relocated, a house rent for three months was paid to over 100 households who were relocated to the temporary site and have identified places within their neighbourhood.
“SEMA has concluded profiling and registering over 250 victims in Potiskum and 249 households in Nguru. The agency donated a brand new generator to Kwata primary school, a host to the displaced victims, to pump water to the school.
“About three families of deceased persons who lost their lives on the 16th and 17th were also supported with food items,’’ he said.
He added that a non-governmental organisation has donated food and other items to the victims, adding that the items would be distributed within the next 48 hours.
