'Floods destroy over 300 homes in Plateau'
Sep 9th 2013, 23:00, by Yusufu Aminu Idegu, Jos

The Plateau State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA) has said floods have destroyed over 300 homes and other property worth millions of naira, following four hours of downpour in parts of the state.

The floods also washed away vehicles, poultry farms, crops and household items.

Though no one was reported dead in last Friday's flood, several people were reported missing.

Hundreds of victims of last year's floods have not recovered from the loss they incurred in the disaster.

The state government acknowledged the receipt of N500 million from the Federal Government on last year's floods. But the victims said they are yet to receive any help from the state.

Last Friday's floods affected five local governments: Jos North, Shendam, Kanam, Barkin Ladi and Kanke.

SEMA's Executive Secretary Alhaji Alhassan Barde said over 300 houses were affected by by the floods.
