The DC made the appeal on Saturday following an assessment report on a recent disaster in Traditional Authority (TA) Namavi where 183 households were affected due to stormy rains that poured between Wednesday and Thursday.
Piringu said the affected households, among them female-headed households, need immediate relief items such as food and shelter while awaiting implementation of long term measures.
