When sensational soul singer, Asa, sings in one of her popular tracks
that “one day the river will overflow and there will be nowhere for us
to go”, little did Afro pop diva, Faith Nwaumo-Eke aka Muma G know that
the song will turn-out prophetic and would capture her current
experience.
Only recently, flood wreaked havoc on the entire Ahoada West Local Government Area of River State from where Muma G hails, rendering the inhabitants of about 60 villages homeless. Also, Ahoada East, Abua/Odua, and Ogba/Egbema Local Government Areas made up of Orashi region were not left out of the sad experience.
“If you get here, wild animals from the forest have turned to our villages for safety. It has gone beyond our control. Right now, there are snakes all over the place. People are standing in the water and snakes are hovering around them,” she lamented.
Tears
