<p><strong>No Nigerian died in Hurricane Harvey which ravaged Texas and claimed dozens of lives so far, the Nigerian in Diaspora Organization (NIDO) Americas, has said.</strong></p><p>Akin Awofolaju, a NIDO official, told NAN on Sunday that the organisation had reached out to Nigerians in the area.</p><p>The devastating hurricane made landfall in the state a week ago and has been blamed for at least 47 deaths.</p><p>At least 43,000 people are currently housed in shelters while 156,000 homes are reportedly affected.</p><p>“So far, we don’t have any Nigerian who has lost his or her life in the hurricane. We’ve reached out to them and they are safe,” he said.</p><p>“We’ve spoken and have been speaking with Nigerians there; we have been reaching out to them and so far, no death has been recorded among Nigerians.”</p><p>Many Nigerians in Texas whose areas are not affected by the hurricane are accommodating Nigerians that are affected, pending when the floods recede and government relief assistance.</p><p>Awofolaju noted that for more than three months, relevant authorities have been telling people to evacuate.</p><p>“Many people listened and heeded the warnings; those who defied the warnings are most affected,” he said.</p><p>“But one good thing about the US is that insurance will cover most of the damages.”</p><p>On Saturday, President Donald Trump returned to Houston in company of First Lady Melania, praising the relief response on his second visit to Texas.</p><p>The president also declared Sunday a “National Day of Prayer” for victims of Hurricane Harvey.</p><p>Trump had asked Congress for $7.9 billion as an initial payment to help with recovery efforts following the flooding in both Texas and Louisiana.</p><div style="margin-top:10px"><div class="widget_text widget-1 first panel"><div class="textwidget custom-html-widget"><div style="height:50px;"></div></div></div><div class="widget_text widget-2 last panel"><h3>RECEIVE ALERTS FROM THECABLE</h3><div class="textwidget custom-html-widget"><div style="width:100%; font-weight: bolder;"><div style="float:left;width:30%;overflow: hidden;padding: 10px;"><div style="float:left;width:60px">
