Peter Gregory Obi has lent his voice to the current flooding Menace in the suburb of Abuja.
Everything About Peter Obi is presidential and full of empathy. He walks the talk.
See his statements below :
While I appreciate the NEMA, Fire Service, FCT FEMA, Red Cross, and Federal Ministry of Environment-Flood Department for doing their best to alleviate the situation, there is still a need to find a lasting solution to this recurrent flooding challenge in that area of the nation’s capital city. Lasting preemptive safety measures need to be employed to reduce the deadly impact of floods in this and other flood-prone areas across the country. Weather experts had repeatedly warned earlier in the year about these flooding episodes.
In the meantime, urgent humanitarian help should be provided to the residents in the areas of evacuation. Accommodation, relief materials and health care should be provided to enable them to carry on with their normal lives.
My heart goes out in sympathy to all those who are affected by this unfortunate flooding incident.
May God grant eternal rest to the departed and succour to the displaced and all those whose lives have been disrupted by this sad incident. -PO
