“There is a culvert over there, it’s likely it has been blocked, and so the water had to find its way above the road and then affected the house or houses. “We don’t want to lose more lives, we don’t want to lose people. We want people to know that flood this year has been predicted and whatever we can do to save lives we will do”Earlier in the year, the Director-General of the National Emergency Management Agency , Retired Air Vice-Marshal Muhammadu Muhammad cautioned Nigerians residing in areas identified as flood risk areas to evacuate their facilities immediately to avert any form of disaster that may arise as a result of flooding.
