The NMFUK Maiduguri Flood Relief Initiative urgently (Sept. 2024) seeks to support thousands of residents in Maiduguri and surrounding areas who have been left stranded and displaced following the collapse of the Alau Dam, which caused devastating floods. Despite government efforts to mitigate the disaster, the floodwaters have engulfed several key communities, including the Shehu’s Palace, Monday Market, and Post Office area, leaving homes, roads, and infrastructure severely damaged. Entire communities have been cut off, and property worth billions of naira has been lost. The situation is dire, with local authorities urging citizens to avoid flood-prone areas while rescue efforts continue. NMFUK is working to provide immediate relief, including food, clean water, and emergency supplies, to those in critical need.
This Initiative is focused on providing essential resources, including food, clean water, and emergency supplies, to alleviate the hardship faced by those affected. With your support, we can ensure that these families receive the critical aid they need, in sha Allah.
Our fundraising efforts are deeply rooted in the strength of our community and regional chapters. NMFUK encourages all members to actively raise awareness and contribute to the cause. By working together, spreading the word, and involving local communities, we can amplify our impact. Every chapter, every donation, and every shared message makes a difference. Let’s come together with compassion to support our brothers and sisters in Maiduguri through this difficult time.
In addition to financial assistance, the second phase of the project will involved the collection and distribution of of new and used clothes. These clothes will be distributed to those in need, providing not just physical comfort but also a message of solidarity and hope.
May Allah accept from us all, ameen.
