At least four persons including a pastor and his wife have been confirmed killed by flood at Nyelleng and Gwabi communities of Pankshin Local Government Area of plateau State.
Chairman of Pankshin Local Government Council, Audu Kak’mena who visited the communities expressed sadness over the incident that occurred as a result of heavy downpour between Monday 22nd and Wednesday 24th August.
The only bridge linking the area with the outside world was submerged, causing the victims, who tried to wade through while returning from a neighbouring local market to lose their lives.
