The National Executive Council and Board of Trustees, Christian Association of Clergies in Nigeria has established a special trust fund for the rehabilitation of flood displaced persons currently in various camps across the country.
The group in a statement issued in Onitsha on Sunday by its National President, Archbishop Yiman Orkwar, and National Coordinator, Justice Ikpeama, decried the pitiable condition and sufferings of flood victims due to lack of basic necessities of life at the camps.
It urged the government, political class, corporate organisations and wealthy individuals to spare no efforts in contributing toward ameliorating the plight of victims.
The group called on governments across the affected states and the federation to articulate an action plan and panacea to tackle incessant flooding in the country permanently.
It urged church leaders to intensify efforts in raising funds in their churches to aid the upkeep of victims and to put smiles on faces of displaced persons.
