Share this article

A former Governor of Sokoto State and serving Senator, Aliyu Wamakko, has advised residents to take proactive measures against potential flooding. 


Senator Wamakko's advice follows a flood warning issued by the Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMET), which forecasts heavy rainfall and potential flooding in Sokoto and other northern states.


Drawing from his experience with devastating floods in 2010, Wamakko stressed the need for early preparation and preventive measures, hence the need for those living near rivers and flood-prone areas to either relocate or ensure that drainage channels remain clear to allow the free flow of water.
