Residents of Maiduguri are currently panicking over the flooding of Maiduguri Zoo, popularly referred to as Sanda Kyarimi Park located in the city centre.

Newsmen gathered that the park which is located close to a waterway is currently flooded by water

The flood which spread across major centres in the city started around 1 a.m. on Tuesday and has displaced many families living around Lagos Street, Modugari, Gwange, Monday Market, and a few other places.

One of the residents in Maiduguri, Kabiri Sani told our correspondent that the zoo was flooded this morning, and was sure that animals would escape.

“Early this morning, I left Wulari to Polo, while passing through the zoo area, with the water level I saw, I was shocked and I began to fear because I know the calibre of wild animals in that zoo,(sic)” he claimed.

Another resident residing in Gwange, Salamatu Mohammed said that she and her family have been displaced and are currently forced to leave the environment because of the news that the zoo was already flooded.

He said, “I left immediately I was able to rescue my properties and myself. I cannot stay in that area because I am sure that animals are currently outside.”

However, a circulating picture on Facebook shows an Ostrich that escaped from the zoo on the street in an area close to Borno ICAN’s office.

Meanwhile, efforts by our correspondent to reach the zoo authority proved abortive.

Reporters had reported that critical infrastructures including roads government offices, markets, and the palace of the Shehu of Borno are currently submerged by water.

Court orders FCCPC to shut Coscharis Motors over defective Range Rover sale

A Nigerian court has ordered the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) to seal the operations of Coscharis Motors after the company allegedly failed to comply with directives linked to the sale of a defective Range Rover vehicle to a customer. According to TheCable, the ruling followed a legal dispute in which the customer accused the luxury automobile dealer of supplying a faulty Range Rover and failing to provide satisfactory remedies. The court reportedly directed the FCCPC to enforce compliance by shutting down the company’s premises until the matter is resolved. The judgment is seen as another major test of consumer protection enforcement in Nigeria’s automobile sector. The FCCPC has increasingly intensified actions against companies accused of violating consumer rights in recent years. Earlier cases involved sanctions and enforcement actions against firms in sectors including pay television and real estate. Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission has not publicly released full details of the enforcement process at the time of reporting.
