My people, e don happen again! This National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) don sabi go all-out to help our pipo wey find themselves for wahala last year. Dem report say dem do 87 interventions for 17,000 souls wey lost their homes due to different gbege.
Mr Sani Lokoja wey be North-West Zonal Director of NEMA talk am well well during interview wey him do with News Agency of Nigeria. E no sweet wetin some states dey face o! Bandits, flood, windstorm, and even fire wey fit turn person house to ash, na dem be the wahala wey dey vex many people.
Na Kaduna na im carries the highest number of help, with 34 interventions. No be play! Followed by Sokoto wey get 33, and Kano wey no even dey slack, with 20 interventions. E be like say banditry no wan gree give Kaduna and Katsina wahala make dem rest small. And for this matter, we go really need sense as dem dey talk.
E no go funny for Kano and Jigawa as flood plus windstorm dey show them pepper pass for last year. Fire, too, no respect nobody, wey me personally fit tell you na urban and rural areas dey face serious issues with that one. No house dey safe wey get fire chance from wetin I don hear.
Lokoja dey yarn say NEMA dey follow state and local governments, plus other padi wey dey relevant, to help settle the scattered communities wey don suffer. He also carry suggestion come that we need better preparedness and coordination to tackle dis rising security wahala and climate gbege wey dey cause trouble.
Hmm, wey we no go fit pretend say e no dey important. This blood and sweat matter wey dey happen for our land, na serious cause for concern. We dey hope say as dem dey put head together, pipo go fit smile again for their communities.
