Abuja – President Muhammadu Buhari has encouraged state governors to meet with the Minister of Water Resources and fashion out solutions, to alleviate the plight of people currently being ravaged by flood across the country.

Femi Adesina, Special Adviser to the President Media and Publicity said Buhari gave the counsel at State House, Abuja, on Friday, while playing host to the outgoing Chairman of NGF, Dr Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti State, the incoming Interim Chairman, Aminu Waziri Tambuwal of Sokoto State, and the Interim Deputy Chairman, Atiku Bagudu of Kebbi State.

He said they should quickly
escalate their conclusions to the Federal Government for appropriate action.

The governors had briefed the president that lives have been lost, homes and farmlands washed away by floods in States like Kogi, Yobe, Jigawa, and many others, and asked for Federal Government intervention in terms of special funding.

President Buhari said after the engagement with the relevant Minister, a report should be sent in, “and we will see what to do.”

Governor Fayemi, who exits office in about nine days time personally thanked the President for support to him as Ekiti State helmsman, and for the governors collectively.

“You always accorded us due regard. You accommodated us, and listened to our pleas.

“You were always there for us when we had challenges, either individually, or collectively.

“We owe you a debt of gratitude,” the outgoing NGF Chairman said.

Gov Tambuwal said the flooding creates a frightening scenario for food security, “and we need to plan ahead for dry season farming,” while Gov Bagudu counselled that it was not the time to squeeze credit for the agricultural sector because of the peculiar challenges.(vitalnewsngr.com)
