The authorities in Nigeria say more than 100 people have been killed in floods across the country in the past two weeks.
The National Emergency Management Agency-NEMA said heavy rains caused the country’s two major rivers ; Niger and Benue to overflow.
The devastation is across Nigeria, but most have been killed in the north-central state of Niger.
The head of NEMA, Mustapha Yunusa Maihaja, said more than 40 people have died in the state with 11 from other states.
The government is urging residents along waterways to relocate to safe places.
