French President Emmanuel Macron was protested by some locals in the Pamadzi town of Mayotte, where he visited after the Hurricane Chido disaster that occurred last week with 4 tons of food and health supplies, over not providing enough support. The people booed Macron and called for his resignation.

“Nobody feels safe here. People are fighting for water here,” said a woman during Macron’s visit to a hospital yesterday, while another person stated that he hasn’t received any aid where he lives. In response to the reactions, Macron said, “I am not the hurricane; I am not responsible.”

Saying that the government will send more support soon, Macron added that France will declare a national mourning on Monday. The French President also promised that the damaged infrastructure and houses in the region will be rebuilt.
