A non-profit, Amina Dikwa Foundation (ADF), has launched a multifaceted recovery initiative to address the needs of victims of the devastating floods that wreaked havoc across households in Borno State recently.

ADF’s founder/CEO Amina Dikwa said its initiatives bordered on measures spread across the short-term, medium to long-terms.

“We have achieved significant progress through our immediate response, providing emergency relief such as clean drinking water, blankets, long-lasting insecticidal mosquito nets, clothing materials, and sanitary kits to women, girls, and children in Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camps,” Amina Dikwa explained.

She said as part of its commitment, the foundation supported affected communities through medical care delivered through collaborations with other NGOs, while establishing communication with relevant authorities and stakeholders.

“We also provided essential services, including sanitation kits and equipment, medical care, psychosocial support, educational support through school renovations and learning materials, and cash assistance to women for livelihood recovery,” Amina stated.

For long-term resilience, ADF focused on infrastructure rehabilitation, provision of motorized solar boreholes and sanitary equipment.
