Following the flood alarm sensitization by the Kwara State Government's Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, the Executive Chairman of Edu Local Government Area, Hon. Abdullahi Bello Ndamangoro, on Friday, through the Media Team and Communications Unit, issued an urgent warning to residents of communities in Lafiagi, Tsaragi, and Shonga, particularly those living near water banks, to kindly vacate the area for safety or exercise extreme caution ahead of the forecasted flood disaster.
Stressing further, the Council Chairman commended the Executive Governor of Kwara State, Mallam AbdulRahman AbdulRasaq, CON, for prioritizing the safety of lives and properties of Kwarans at all times. He added that the safety of the residents of Edu Local Government Area is a top priority for the Council, and the Council will always maintain their safety. Therefore, he urged the good people of the LGA to adhere to the announcement to avoid potentially distressing consequences.
In a special appeal to parents, the Council Chairman emphasised, "We understand that farming is a vital source of income for many in our Local Government Area. However, please do not endanger the lives of your children by sending them to farm alone, especially where they need to cross rivers or work near riverbanks. Their safety is paramount to us. Please, don't take risks with their lives."
In conclusion, the Council Chairman implored community heads, religious leaders (Muslims and Christians), community-based associations, schools, market leaders, and individuals to support the campaign for proactive measures to mitigate risks and ensure safety head and during the forecasted flood.
