Kashim Shettima visited Maiduguri on Tuesday to offer his sympathy to the people of Borno following the Alau Dam flood disaster, which displaced thousands of residents.
Shettima, who led a federal government delegation to the flood-stricken city, was welcomed by Governor Babagana Zulum.
The governor accompanied him to the palace of the Shehu of Borno, Abubakar El-Kanemi, which had also been affected by the floods.
