The rainy season this year has been estimated to wreak havoc in the country.
This is according to a technical committee of experts set up by the Federal Government. Roads, bridges, and several other key infrastructures as well as communities would probably be washed away, with disease epidemics seeing an outbreak in a lot of communities.
The aviation sector is not left behind as airplanes are reckoned to skid off runways and lead to accidents.
The warning is contained in a document prepared by the National Emergency Management Agency, NEMA where it had warned that severe flooding would probably wash away farms and livestock, leading to severe hunger in the land, while also predicting that severe ‘wet-season’ weather might worsen malaria, cholera and other water-borne diseases in Nigeria.
