(ERGO) – Radio Ergo’s audience feedback platform this week (3-9 November 2022) received a few calls from areas along the river Shabelle describing damaging river floods that followed heavy rainfall. IDP callers especially in Gedo complained of food and water shortage and lack of aid. Other callers in Galgadud and Sanag spoke of expected aid being cut or reduced. One caller in the north and another in the south noted the return of locusts. Meanwhile, a varied picture of rainfall and drought emerged from the overall set of calls. Callers notably in Sanag, Galgadud, L. Shabelle, and Gedo spoke of water shortage and ongoing drought conditions even where a little rainfall had been received. Areas welcoming rain in some cases said it was inadequate and unevenly spread.
