The collapse of a major dam in the state of Borno on Tuesday caused some of the state’s worst flooding since the same dam collapsed 30 years ago and prompted over a million to flee their homes.
Floods that swept through Nigeria's northeastern Borno state have affected up to one million people, as authorities scrambled to rescue residents and put them in temporary shelters.
The floods began when a dam overflowed following heavy rains, decimating a state-owned zoo and washing crocodiles and snakes into flooded communities.
Local officials said it was the worst flooding in the state in two decades.
