One person is reportedly feared dead as flood submerges schools, power installations, and rice farms in 37 communities of Agatu Local Government Area of Benue State.
The flood is a result of an overflow of the shallow River Benue which could not contain the release of excess water from the Lado Dam in Cameroon.
The incident has forced hundreds of residents from their homes as they now take refuge along the Guto-Oweto highway in the state.
