President Muhammadu Buhari has extended sympathies for the flooding of Pakistan, the worst natural disaster in the country’s history.
This is contained in a statement by Mr Buhari’s media aide Garba Shehu, on Saturday in Abuja.
Floods have damaged half a million homes, affecting about 30 million people and killing over 1,000.
The floods have washed away hundreds of roads, bridges and other infrastructure.
According to the Nigerian leader, Pakistan and its population are in the thoughts and prayers of Nigerians as they confront this humanitarian disaster of epic proportions.
Mr Buhari appealed to the United Nations and other aid agencies to take urgent steps to assist people without shelter and food and the millions who required urgent humanitarian relief.
