The Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs (NSCIA), has commended the Federal Government for establishing a Disaster Relief Fund.

The council gave the commendation in a statement released to media houses on Friday.

While welcoming the new initiative, the council said it will go a long way in “entrenching proactive and preemptive measures against disasters, not just reactive ones that are in place.

“Though long overdue, the Council welcomes the development which aims to ensure rapid and efficient response to the needs of disaster victims nationwide.

“We actually consider it a right step in the right direction.

“The Council expects that, in addition to disaster/ emergency management, a department/unit of government should be saddled with the responsibility of undertaking disaster prevention.

“The department/ unit should have the necessary mechanisms and frameworks to reduce to the barest minimum, if not fully prevent, the occurrence of disasters.

“Since a stitch in time saves nine, this initiative will go a long way in entrenching proactive and preemptive measures against disasters, not just reactive ones that are in place.”

“Meanwhile, barely two weeks after the unfortunate flood incident in Maiduguri, which, according to the National Emergency Management

opening of a dedicated Flood Relief Account to address the needs of the victims.

The Council also appealed to hereby calls on well-meaning Nigerians
and non-Nigerians to be part of the ongoing efforts to provide succour for the victims of the recent flood disaster in Maiduguri, Borno State.

It said they can do this by sending their donations to a dedicated Flood Relief Account opened by the Borno State government
to address the needs of the victims.

” Kindly support the cause by contributing to the Account (details below), while also enjoining those who are in positions to make major interventions in that regard :
ACCOUNT NAME: BORNO ST. FLOOD DISASTER RELIEF
BANK: ZENITH BANK
ACCOUNT NUMBER: 1313556361.

“The Council is confident that the State Governor, His Excellency, Prof. Babagana Umara Zulum, judging from his antecedents and having shown passion for the welfare of his people, would utilize the funds judiciously for the people.

“The Council, once again, prays that the Almighty Allah repose the souls of the departed and grant the injured quick recovery.

“It also prays that Allah replenish and grant succor to those who have lost their wealth and property in the sad incident,” the statement said.
