A severe flood caused by heavy rainfall has washed away a section of the Kano-Maiduguri expressway, leaving motorists stranded and disrupting transportation in the region. The incident has rendered the major highway impassable, causing significant inconvenience to travelers.

He assured residents and motorists that he would inform the Federal Government of the situation to seek immediate intervention.

Governor Mohammed expressed concern over the impact of the flood, which has not only disrupted travel but also poses a threat to the livelihoods of those who rely on the expressway for commerce and daily activities. He emphasized the need for swift action to repair the damaged portion of the road and called on relevant agencies to provide immediate relief to those affected by the flood.
