Heavy rains flooded homes and shops Monday morning across Bachure New Extension. The water destroyed furniture and forced families from their houses. Blocked drains overflowed and sent water rushing through streets. Other parts of Jimeta stayed dry during the same storm. Residents blamed poor drainage systems for the damage.

Ephraim Timothy criticized the town's water management system. He said the drains should help but actually cause more problems. Trash and waste block the channels that run through the community. The system fails when heavy rains arrive each year. Timothy wants better maintenance of existing drainage networks.

Bachure floods almost every rainy season before 2021. Governor Ahmadu Fintiri built new roads and drains that year. The project included over five kilometers of improved infrastructure. Jambutu and Yolde Pate face similar flooding risks during wet months. These communities need better preparation as rain season continues.
