Floods: Min of Water Resources Blames State Govs …

News

The Minister of Water Resources, Suleiman Adamu has blamed state governments for ignoring early warnings that could have averted the impact of this year’s flooding.

Speaking during a briefing after the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting yesterday, Adamu, who acknowledged that there is no way flood can be stopped, asserted that there was adequate information regarding the enormity of the disaster and states that would be affected but they were ignored.

Adamu also blamed tree felling and degraded soil for the massive impact of this year’s floods in the country, but assured that the present administration is already working on a flood management masterplan that will take at least three years to complete.

Similarly, the Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola absolved the Federal Government of any blame for not providing temporary shelters for citizens in vulnerable flood plains, maintaining that it is the responsibility of states and local governments.
