The Palace of Shehu of Borno, Alhaji Garbai Elkenemi, and other parts of Maiduguri, the capital city of Borno State were submerged by flood in the early hours of Tuesday.
The PUNCH gathered from residents that the Shehu has left his palace to the Government House where he is currently taking refuge.
A resident of Kofar Shehu said, “This is shocking! I have never witnessed this before. Even the Shehu has left his palace to the Government House.”
Our correspondent in Maiduguri gathered that areas including Lagos Street, Modugari, Post Office, and Gwange are the worst affected parts as residents struggle to rescue their properties and lives.
In an interview with one of the victims, Usman Babagana, he said there were early warnings that more water may come, but residents were adamant because they had no place to go
He stated, “We were told flood is coming. I never expected it this Way. We didn’t take it much seriously because we had nowhere to go.”
A pedestrian who was stuck by the flood around the post office area, Buba Jibril, told our correspondent, “This is the worst of it all I have witnessed since my stay in Maiduguri. I hope that this will not lead to untold hardship.”
