Between 4 and 8 September 2024, the Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM), in collaboration with the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), the Niger State Emergency Management Agency (NSEMA), and the Nigerian Red Cross Society (NRCS), identified 71 locations in Niger State that were impacted by floods or received internally displaced persons (IDPs) due to the flooding. 


In the eighteen (18) local government areas (LGAs) of Niger State that were assessed, DTM identified 16,559 individuals in 2,337 households affected by the floods. These individuals included IDPs displaced by the floods and residents impacted by the floods but remained in their communities. The affected population included 1,385 individuals and 272 displaced. Twenty-four per cent (24%) of the affected houses are habitable but need repair, sixteen per cent of the houses are partially damaged but need repairs and seven per cent are destroyed. In 86 per cent (86%) of the locations assessed, crop farming was among the primary sources of income.c
