Flood: Obi visits IDPs in Anambra

The presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Mr. Peter Obi on Saturday paid a visit to the victims of flood at the Umueri Unity Hall where the Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) are camped in Anambra State.

Obi, who arrived in Umueri in the company of some LP chieftains, took a boat ride with Chief Metchie to see things for himself in some parts of the affected communities.

He stated that Nigeria cannot continue to keep quiet and do nothing as thousands of citizens of the country are killed every year while properties worth billions of Naira are destroyed by flooding caused by the release of water from Cameroun.
