Nigeria
Heavy rain continues to affect several states of Nigeria, causing widespread floods that resulted in casualties and damage.
According to media reports, since the beginning of 2022, 300 people have been killed in separate flood-related incidents, 100,000 have been displaced and 500,000 affected across the country.
The heavy rain is increasing the risk of water-borne diseases such as cholera. On 14 September, the Government of Borno State, in the conflict-affected Northeast Nigeria declared a cholera outbreak with over 700 suspected cases so far and 39 reported deaths.
