Nigeria has been hit with some of its worst flooding in over a decade, with more than 500 deaths since July.

The floods have also forced 1.4 million people to leave their homes, according to the UN humanitarian coordinator for the nation, Matthias Schmale.

"We’re currently seeing the worst floods in ten years in Nigeria,” he said.

Around 90,000 homes are submerged due to floods in 27 of the country’s 36 states.
