It’s now almost 2 weeks since the boat mishap that claimed 107 lives in four villages in Patigi local government area of Kwara state.
Now, the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) is here to hand over relief materials for distribution to the families of victims and survivors of the boat mishap.
The team is led by its Director General, Mustapha Ahmed.

He announces the hand over of items such as foodstuff, clothes and other household materials for the victims of the mishap.
Responding, the Kwara state deputy governor, Kayode Alabi thanks the federal government for the materials saying it will go a long way in relieving the people.
