Garba Shehu, the media aide to the president, made this available on his Twitter page Monday evening.

Floods have ravaged about 33 states out of 36 states and FCT in Nigeria. The disaster displaced nearly 2.5 million and killed over 600 others.

This year’s flood is the worst in a decade after the 2012 experience. But the Nigerian Government is responding, though late to the flooding, with the directive from the President.

“President Muhammadu Buhari has directed the Minister of Water Resources to lead and coordinate with the Ministries of Environment and Transportation as well as State Governments to develop a Comprehensive Plan of Action for Preventing Flood Disaster in Nigeria,” Shehu said in the statement.

He said the President’s directive, which was conveyed to the Minister in a letter signed by his Chief of Staff, Prof Ibrahim Gambari, said the Plan should be presented to him in 90 days.
“President Buhari is regularly receiving updates on the flooding situation in the country and restates his commitment towards addressing the challenges caused by the disaster in the country.”

The Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMET) said most state governments disregarded its forecasts on impending flooding in the country hence the havoc witnessed in the past few weeks.
NiMET’s DG said: “We gave the warnings and weather for each state, but whether the states adhere to it or not, we are now seeing the result. Most of them did not adhere. But unfortunately, it was only when the flood came that many states were now running to Mr President, cap in hand, to get money.
“If they had listened to us, some of these things would have been avoided. We asked them to invite us and gather their stakeholders to allow us to train them on the use of the information and engage with them so that we can have a window through which we can interact with them; giving them updates, and reminding them about what the forecasts say.”
