A catastrophic dam overflow in Northern Nigeria has unleashed a torrent of floodwaters, inundating communities and sweeping dangerous wildlife, including crocodiles and snakes, into residential areas. The region is experiencing its worst flooding in years, posing a significant threat to both human life and wildlife.

The sudden and severe flooding has caught residents off guard, leaving them struggling to cope with the rapidly rising waters. Homes, businesses, and crops have been destroyed, displacing thousands of people and causing widespread devastation.

The situation is further complicated by the presence of wild animals, including crocodiles and snakes, which have been washed into communities, putting residents at risk of attacks. Emergency services are working to evacuate affected areas and provide aid to those in need.

Environmental experts warn that the flooding may have long-term consequences for the region’s ecosystem, affecting local wildlife habitats and potentially leading to waterborne diseases.
