Over 150 lives, including those of children, were lost, according to data from the Niger State Emergency Management Agency (NSEMA).<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Floods have consistently caught Nigerian authorities unaware, despite the billions spent on control and management. This recurring failure has raised doubts about the genuity and effectiveness of these projects.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">In October 2022, the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs reported that \u201cover 1.4 million persons were displaced, about 500 persons were reported dead, and 1,546 persons injured\u201d due to flooding.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cSimilarly, 45,249 houses were totally damaged, while 70,566 hectares of farmlands were completely destroyed,\u201d said the ministry&#8217;s Deputy Director of Information, Rhoda Iliya.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">In a similar tragedy in 2012, reports indicate that 363 people died and more than 2.1 million were displaced due to severe floods.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">These disasters only add to Nigeria\u2019s worsening challenges, including insecurity, rising food inflation, and widespread hunger.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Niger State, one of Nigeria\u2019s key food-producing regions\u2014known for yams, sesame, and other staples\u2014is particularly vulnerable. With food inflation hitting 40.87 per cent as of June 2024 (though the government\u2019s recent rebase brings it down to 21 per cent), continued flooding threatens to push the figure even higher.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Nigerian government, known for its inadequate forecasting, has repeatedly failed to take proactive measures to avert disasters. This lack of political will has endangered countless lives, resulting in avoidable deaths and widespread destruction of property.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 2024, the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) reported that floods killed 179 persons in 15 states and displaced 208,655 others in 22 states. The agency also noted that 107,652 hectares of farmland and 80,049 houses were destroyed.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Benue and Niger states topped the list of the most affected.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although the government claims it is working to curb the devastating effects of flooding, Nigerians are still waiting to see those promises translated into action.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">According to Dr. Umar Mohammed, Director General of the Nigeria Hydrological Services Agency (NIHSA), the agency is actively collaborating with others:<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWe have, since inception, been working closely with NIMET. We share data and collaborate in producing flood forecasts and seasonal outlooks,\u201d he said.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">At a recent meeting with heads of agencies, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Sen. George Akume, represented by the Permanent Secretary, General Services Office, Dr. Nnamdi Mberi, stated, \u201cThis administration is particular about addressing flooding and related issues like desertification. The President is resolute in implementing effective measures to curtail the menace.\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Among the beneficiaries listed in the dataset is Richflood International Limited, which received multiple payments totaling over N60m from the Project Development Institute, Enugu, for consultancy services on flood risk analysis and mitigation studies across Nigeria\u2019s six geopolitical zones.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another major recipient, Geoflux Technical Services Ltd, was paid nearly N650m for the construction of drainage and erosion control structures in communities across Abia and Imo states.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Uniglobe Sourcing &amp; Logistics Ltd received over N1.2bn for the procurement and distribution of flood relief materials, including water purification kits, inflatable boats, and emergency shelter units, while Salmok Ventures Ltd was paid close to N480 million for the \u201crehabilitation of flood-prone roads and culverts\u201d in Niger and Kogi states.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, the reality for residents in Lokoja is that the roads are still submerged each time the River Niger overflows, cutting off access for days.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Even NIHSA made significant payments for flood modeling and the development of early warning systems. Technohydro Consult Ltd, which received over N350 million, was contracted to upgrade flood alert infrastructure.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">As another rainy season begins, Nigerians brace for yet another cycle of destruction. Communities along the Benue and Niger rivers are once again left to build makeshift barriers and prepare for evacuation with little faith in the promises made through multi-billion-naira government contracts.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">The question on many citizens\u2019 minds remains: Where did all the money go?<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Daniel Adaji Despite the Nigerian government\u2019s spending of over N29bn on flood control and related projects within nine months, devastating water surges remain a nightmare in many parts of&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":96185,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-119395","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
