French Prime Minister François Bayrou recently visited Mayotte, a French overseas department devastated by Cyclone Chido, with a promise to rebuild the territory within two years. The cyclone, the worst in 90 years, caused significant damage and loss of life. Bayrou’s goal of a two-year rebuilding plan for Mayotte was well received, although conflicting reports on the death toll have caused confusion among residents. The official death toll stands at 39, but residents are concerned about loved ones who are missing or dead.

During his visit, Bayrou addressed the issue of immigration in Mayotte, describing it as a “burning problem” that needs to be addressed through legislative measures. He acknowledged the local population’s deep upset and revolt and emphasized the government’s responsibility to find solutions. Bayrou was accompanied by Manuel Valls, the Minister for Overseas France, and Elisabeth Borne, the Minister for Education, as they surveyed the damage caused by Cyclone Chido and visited a secondary school and field hospital.

Despite rumors of thousands of deaths, Bayrou clarified that the number is likely in the “few tens or hundreds.” He urged caution in reporting on the death toll and emphasized that accurate information is crucial in the aftermath of a disaster. Bayrou’s visit aimed to reassure residents and coordinate efforts to rebuild the island and restore essential services. Public health experts have raised concerns about access to clean water and potential disease outbreaks due to the cyclone’s impact on infrastructure.

Bayrou’s visit highlighted the government’s commitment to supporting Mayotte in its recovery from Cyclone Chido. The rebuilding efforts will focus on restoring essential services, addressing the issue of immigration, and providing assistance to residents affected by the disaster. Through legislative measures and coordinated efforts with local authorities, the government aims to rebuild Mayotte within two years. The visit also underscored the importance of accurate information and cautious reporting in the aftermath of a natural disaster.

The government’s response to the devastation caused by Cyclone Chido is a priority for Prime Minister François Bayrou and his team. The visit to Mayotte underscored the government’s commitment to supporting the territory and addressing the challenges brought about by the cyclone. As rebuilding efforts progress, the government will work closely with local authorities and community leaders to ensure that the needs of residents are met. By coordinating efforts and implementing legislative measures, the government aims to rebuild Mayotte within the two-year timeframe set by Bayrou.

The support and assistance provided by the government during Bayrou’s visit to Mayotte are crucial in the territory’s recovery from Cyclone Chido. The visit highlighted the need for accurate information, coordinated efforts, and legislative measures to address the challenges faced by residents in the aftermath of the disaster. The government’s commitment to rebuilding Mayotte within two years is a significant step towards restoring normalcy and providing much-needed assistance to those affected by the cyclone. As recovery efforts continue, the government will work diligently to ensure that Mayotte emerges stronger and more resilient from the devastation caused by Cyclone Chido.
