There'll Be Fresh Flooding In 2023— FG | Daily Report Nigeria
SHARE

The Federal Government, on Monday, warned that Nigeria there would be another round of flood in many states in 2023 just as it was in 2022.

The Director-General, National Emergency Management Agency, Mustapha Ahmed, disclosed this in Abuja at the executive seminar for NEMA employees and senior members of staff selected from State Emergency Management Agencies and critical disaster management stakeholders.

Ahmed however stated that early preparations had commenced avoiding some of the mistakes that were made in 2022.

Findings revealed that 662 persons were killed by the devastating flood situation in 2022, but state governors would be informed early this year about disaster-prone areas.

While speaking to journalists on the sidelines of the event, he said:

“This is January and by tomorrow (Tuesday), NiMet (Nigeria Meteorological Agency) is releasing their seasonal climate prediction and after that I believe that in the next week or two, NIHSA (Nigeria Hydrological Services Agency) will release their own flood outlook.

“And immediately after that we will gather stakeholders to critically analyse the reports and interpret it and attach it with the vulnerable areas mapping, and send it out to states.

“We are starting early because we have seen one or two mistakes that were done last year. So we have to work together and collaborate with all the states. We can’t work if NEMA is moving on one side, while the states are on the other side.”

Asked whether NEMA was interfacing with the Nigeria Governors Forum on how to manage floods in states, Ahmed said replied in the affirmative and stressed that there would be floods this year.

He said:

“When we finish with this (seminar), and NiMet releases its climate prediction, and NIHSA releases its own outlook, and we analyse them and then conduct the vulnerable areas mapping, we will then interact with the governors directly, all of them.

“We don’t do that for just once, rather we identify the likely areas of disaster. It is going to flood again this year, there is no doubt about that. It is going to flood. How severe it will be is what we don’t know for now, but it’s actually going to flood again.”

The DG recalled that the event of the devastating 2022 flood disaster across the country was unprecedented in the history of Nigeria.
