Ogun State Governor Dapo Abiodun has declared a state of emergency in the flooded Isheri community of Ifo local government area.
The governor stated this when he fielded questions from newsmen after inspecting the flooded Isheri community where he assured the affected residents of his administration’s readiness to quickly intervene to save the situation.
While disclosing that his administration is working with the federal government towards dealing with the situation as “an emergency case”, the governor added that a comprehensive assessment that would lead to permanent solution to the menace of flooding in the affected area would be conducted very soon.
“We will prioritise the work here because I am touched with what I have seen. I will ensure that we immediately begin to see signs of relief as we are stepping this up. The minister of state for environment is already aware. The vice president is already aware and also the president. It will be dealt with as an emergency and we are taking it as such.“As an emergency, I would like to take it up myself.
“Whatever that assessment comes up with is what we are going to implement. So, we are going to first start with ensuring that we have the required road infrastructure at the appropriate levels.“So if you now built in such a way that we need to relocate you, we have to do that. Whatever it is that we must do to ensure that the place does not persistently experience flooding, we will do it.
Addressing the residents of Riverview Estate, the governor said he had requested an area survey of the area to identify critical areas that needed immediate intervention.Banks in Nigeria can now refund and take customers seriously, write a review regarding your experience and watch their management take instant action.
