The assaults left five people dead, while three others remain in critical condition.

The Savannah Regional Director of NADMO, Zakaria Mahama, told Adom News that relief items have been distributed to support the displaced persons, who are currently taking shelter at the palaces of the Kalbawura, Sengeri, Nakwabi, and Sawla.

He expressed concern over the plight of women and children among the displaced, many of whom lost husbands and fathers in the attacks, and urged the Fulani community to remain calm and avoid retaliation to help restore peace.

Mr. Mahama also appealed for support to fund eye treatment for five-year-old Musah Jallo, who was injured during the attacks.

Meanwhile, the Chief of Sengeri, Sengeri Kori, thanked the NADMO Regional Director for the assistance provided so far and appealed to the government for additional support for the affected communities.

Some of the victims of the flood told Adom News that the school has become their home because the flood has taken over their houses.

“This school has become our home since flood took over our houses; we cook and live all our lives here. Our farms have been submerged and we only rely on the few foodstuffs we had stored,” one victim said.
