UN warns on West Africa floods


Heavy flooding has now affected some 350,000 people across West Africa, killing at least 30 in Ghana and Burkina Faso, UN officials say. More than 100,000 people in Burkina Faso have fled their homes, mainly in the capital Ougadougou.
A UN spokeswoman said the amount of rain that fell in Ougadougou on one day this week was equal to a quarter of the whole country's annual rainfall.
Neighbouring countries affected include Benin, Guinea, Niger and Senegal.

Earlier in the week, Burkina Faso's main hospital was badly flooded and had to evacuate patients, some with infectious diseases.
At least seven people are known to have died from the floods in the country and President Blaise Compaore has appealed to the international community for help.

I was thinking that flood is only a problem to country like Tanzania. Now I have changed my mind and agree that, not only a problem for people living in Jangwani area in Dar es Salaam, it can be problem every where. God will give West Africa new buildings and the properties they have lost.
