By Adeleye Kunle
Indigenes of Igbide and Ofagbe communities in Isoko South and Isoko North Local Government Areas of Delta State have deserted their homes as flood completely submerged their buildings and farmlands.
Track News correspondent, who monitored the situation, reports that Ofagbe community, the NYSC corpers lodge, Gospel Church of Christ, Oketa Grammar School have been overtaken by the flood.
Also swallowed by the flood were Ofagbe District Customary Court, Ebe Primary School in Ovrode Community, a nearby community leading to Ofagbe.
Accessing the communities is with the use of speed boats which costs one thousand naira per passenger.
This is even as the Delta South Senatorial Candidate of the New Nigerian Peoples Party, NNPP, Commodore Omatseye Nesiama, Rtd., on Sunday visited and donated relief materials to the flood victims at Igbide and Ofagbe Communities in Isoko South and Isoko North Local Government Areas respectively to cushion the effects on them.
