Some residents of Maiduguri, the capital of Borno State, were on Wednesday, displaced by a flash flood caused by a heavy downpour that lasted for over three hours It was gathered that some of the victims in parts of Damboa road, Moduganari Ngomari and other places have abandoned their homes to seek refuge with family and friends A resident on Damboa Road, behind Indimi house, told that they fear further flooding as the rainy season continues “Before now, what we do experience is just a minor water gathering in one place whenever there is rain, but the one this morning is a bit surprising, partly because it did not flow from any water body”, he said In Moduganari, a resident, Joshua Solomon, confirmed that some houses have already been displaced “Look at that corner, water entered the house. I am certain that the occupants have all run away to any nearby home. See our own house, the water is already close to the gate. This is how it started last year, before it got worse and displaced everyone in this area” Meanwhile, a government source confirmed that the Ngomari Primary Health Care facility also witnessed a flash flood
