Malam Garba Shehu, the President’s Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity in a statement in Abuja, said the President’s directive followed a warning by the Nigeria Hydrological Services Agency that Rivers Benue and Niger had almost reached levels that resulted in flooding in 2012.

MexxIT: During hurricane seasons the Met office warns the government and FEMA braces for the impact. People are advised to voluntarily evacuate. After the storm, the emergency services swing into action. That's in the US with all their advancement. So why is it in Nigeria we love to blame government for what is an insurmountable force of nature? 1 Like |
