He visited the areas affected by the flood and was also at the IDP's camp stationed at Makurdi International Market to talk to the flood victims.

Speaking after an assessment tour of areas affected by flood, he said;

"There must be effective dredging of River Benue as a long term solution to flooding in Benue State."

Earlier in an welcome speech Governor Samuel Ortom appealed to the Federal Government to create more drainage in the state and as well dredge the River Benue.

When will Buhari toe this path of Prof to visit his distrust and disheartened citizens?

O!! it seems Bubu wants to do it the American way where Trump sent Pence to pay a visit to the ravaged Houston.

God will provide better and permanent succour to the displaced persons of Makurdi.

We should be looking at solutions n preventive measures

I think SOMETIMES we are our own problems. I've witnessed the dredging of a river in one of the states in Nigeria with the government of the state making pleas via radio announcements and billboard adverts for people to stop dumping refuse in that river....this year, same river went over its bank, houses were flooded, now the people who wouldn't listen to instruction or use common sense are now shouting for help.

I did not see those areas now, i only saw him with people, just like town hall meetings.

wetin concern SAN with environmental engineering chaii what a pathetic country

Osibanjo is a vagabond
Buhari is a terrorist
aisha is a shameless corrupt prostitute

what is this one saying.

What a belated move for the press as usual. Its going towards 12 days the flood ravaged this riverine zone of the Country and yet look at when the number 2 man deemed it fit to pay a visit? Imagine a federal minister of power, works and housing also there when he is not DG of NEMA....but why is this Country parading jesters as leaders? We have more unmotorable roads around that needs attention amidst many flaws affecting Fashola's area of jurisdiction. Chai

Nonsense trash

what conclusion will a San draw in the flood
what's the need of the inspection or are you telling me that a good manager is not supposed to know at least 50% nature of his job.
the vagabond called Osibanjo just went there for sight seeing and not inspection.

please define inspection for me

no wonder your brain will not comprehend anything other than music

The government has ear to hear.
But also let there be justice in Nigeria. All the looters must / should be prosecuted and those that are convicted among them must be punished by imprisonment and the likes as it is right and just. Let those criminals cases of looting which are crimes against humanity never be swept under carpet as usual in Nigeria. Let there be justice and judgment, otherwise God Himself will not forgive you leaders and us as a nation
