The Minister for Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Betta Edu, gave this prediction on Monday when she hosted the Minister of Water Resources, Minister of Environment, as well as other stakeholders on ways to mitigate the impact of the flooding in Nigeria.


The minister assured Nigerians that shelters will be provided to residents in flood-prone states.


ITREALMS recalled that the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) was alerted over impending flooding along the River Benue Basin.


In the alert, the Cameroonian Government had planned to “open the flood gates of the Lagdo Dam on the Benue River in days ahead."
