The National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) has warned residents of Jigawa State to brace up for an impending flood disaster
The agency’s alarm is coming as the rainy season gathering momentum and the fear of potential floods that may devastate their homes and livelihoods.
The agency warned that some local government areas in the state are at high and moderate risk of flooding.
At a sensitization programme in Dutse, NEMA urged stakeholders to take proactive measures to mitigate the impact of floods.
“We cannot afford to be complacent,” said Nura Abdullahi, Territorial Coordinator of NEMA’s Kano Territorial Office. “We must work together to protect lives and properties.”
The Deputy Governor of Jigawa State, Aminu Usman, commended NEMA for its efforts and urged communities to heed the warning. “We must take responsibility for our safety,” he said.
