Zaaki Azzay
So many people have yet to get
over the harm and the loss they incurred with the recent flooding in
Makurdi, Benue State; singer, Zakki Azzay is one of them. The
torch-carrying musician said the recent disaster affected his property
in the state.
“I have a mini estate in
Makurdi. The flood chopped off the fence and affected one of the
buildings from the foundation. I have been able to do a lot of work. It
is still in a dilapidated state even with all the work I have done.
“I don’t know how to describe
this but you need to see the amount of water that it was. It just wasn’t
ordinary flood. The force of the flood was amazing. We need to do
something about this country. Remember what happened in Lekki, this is
not like the Lekki flood, this is worse than that. No matter how strong
the foundation of your building is, this flood would keep ‘eating’ the
concrete. You need to see the kind of houses that are floating in this
flood. Cars were also floating.”
Zakki, who said he had something
doing in Abuja, had to rush to Makurdi when he heard his property was
affected in the recent flooding.
“I actually thought it was the
normal flood we were used to. If not that I had to cancel what I was
doing and rush to Makurdi, the whole building would have gone down. I
have started fixing my building. But right now, the water is still there
and there is not much we can do.”
