The Nigerian Red Cross says flash flooding in the country's southwest this week has killed at least 102 people, as AP reported. Umar Mairiga, a Red Cross spokesman, said Wednesday that the flooding was mostly in Oyo state, where homes washed away and people died trapped inside their homes earlier this week. Mairiga said it took time to have a proper casualty figure as water levels in some areas remain high as seasonal rains continue throughout Africa's most populous nation.
