[UNFPA] Maiduguri, Nigeria — Flash floods throughout West and Central Africa have left more than 5 million people in need of humanitarian assistance across Cameroon, Chad, Niger, Nigeria and other countries in the region. Torrential rainfall has disrupted access to essential services and increased the threat of disease, including a regional outbreak of cholera. The humanitarian response has been hindered by extensive damage to infrastructure; meanwhile, local humanitarian responders have themselves been impacted by the disaster.
