Mogadishu, SONNA – The Deputy Prime Minister of Somalia, Salah Ahmed Jama, and some members of the Somali Parliament paid a visit to the National Emergency Operations Center (NEOC) of the disaster management agency on Wednesday, November 8, 2023.

The NEOC center is the hub of the relief operations for the people affected by the floods and heavy rains that have hit various regions of the country in the past weeks. The chairman of the disaster management agency, Mahamuud Moallim Abdulle, welcomed the delegation and gave them an overview of the ongoing efforts to assist the victims.

Salah toured the different sections of the NEOC center, where he met with the officers of the SoDMA who are working around the clock to coordinate the response. He also received the latest updates from the directorate of the NEOC center on the impact of the floods and the needs of the affected communities.

The situation is worsening and many people are in need of assistance. The floods have displaced thousands of people, destroyed crops and infrastructure, and increased the risk of waterborne diseases. The most affected areas are Gedo, Bakool, Bay and other regions of the country.

The SoDMA organization has prepared five boats that will be part of the relief efforts for the people affected by the floods. These boats will be delivered to the most vulnerable areas that are inundated by water and are inaccessible by road.

Salah expressed his appreciation for the work of the SoDMA and the NEOC center, and praised their professionalism and dedication. He also appealed to the Somali community, especially the businessmen, to support their fellow Somalis who are suffering in this crisis. He said that this is a time when aircraft traders are greatly needed and they should participate in this rescue.

He urged the Somali people to stand together and help each other in this difficult time. He said that the government is committed to providing all the necessary support to the SoDMA and the NEOC center, and to ensuring that the relief reaches the people in need.
