Flooding: Doctors reach out to 2,500 hard-hit Madagali residents
Reacting to pressing health needs of residents of Madagali Local Government Area of Adamawa State affected by recent floods, 70 doctors have reached out to identified 2,500 ailing people with medical services.
The doctors are members of the Adamawa State Chapter of the Nigeria Medical Association who, in partnership with the State Government, stepped forward to address the health emergency.
The medical and surgical outreach aims to support the 2,500 vulnerable individuals said to be the survivors of floods who have been facing ‘unimaginable’ hardships.
The 70 medical and surgical experts, accompanied by military escorts in view of persisting threats of Boko Haram attacks, made the journey to Gulak, headquarters of Madagali LGA where the team provided vital medical services, including general consultations, treatments for ailments, and distribution of medications.
The state NMA Chairman, Dr. Yunusa Mohammed, said his members were conducting the free medical outreach as a way of giving back and ensuring that especially the neglecte receive essential medical care.
The Chairman of the Local Organizing Committee of the outreach, Dr Sajoh Njidda, said effects of insurgency had deeply impacted Madagali communities before floods worsened the situation, hence the choice of the place for the medical intervention.
The Madagali Council Chairman, Simon Sashi; and the District Head of Gulak, Bello Ijadi, appreciated the NMA and the Adamawa State Government for the health care initiative.
Daily Post reports that unprecedented downpours in parts of the Madagali LGA in August caused floods that affected at least 11 residential communities, leading to deaths first confirmed to be six people but later feared to be as many as 11.
The rains which poured intermittently for at least nine hours caused the rampaging floods that were by the early hours of August 21 said to have displaced at least 2,000 people who ended up in hastily arranged IDP camps.
