NEMA DEPLOYS RELIEF MATERIALS TO YELWATA IN BENUE STATE                                                                                    17-06-25

By Sadiq Aminu                                                      In a swift response to the recent attack on Yelwata community in Benue State, the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) has deployed essential relief materials to provide immediate succour to those displaced and affected by the incident.

The intervention followed a rapid needs assessment jointly conducted by officials of NEMA, the Benue State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA), the Nigerian Red Cross Society and relevant security agencies.

Director General of NEMA, Mrs. Zubaida Umar, has activated the Agency’s North Central Zonal Office, under the leadership of Zonal Director Mr Aliyu Waziri, to oversee the prompt distribution of the relief items in coordination with Benue SEMA.

She also directed that a more detailed assessment of the affected population and infrastructure be carried out to determine any additional support that may be required.

The relief materials approved and deployed are food and non food items including bags of parboiled rice, maize, spaghetti, vegetable oil, seasoning cubes, tomato paste, iodize salt and mattresses.

NEMA remains committed to working with all stakeholders to alleviate the suffering of victims and restore normalcy to the affected community.
