Noted.

The reason for this update by NIMET is for residents of these states to begin to prepare actively for storms by clearing out their gutters and drainages, reinforcing their houses especially the roofs, keeping the family together at home as much as possible etc.

It should not just be business as usual until the last minute.

Lagos needs more rain... Its so dry

Following clinically

Ewo! It had been raining cat and dog in port Harcourt since Saturday morning with serious flooding in some parts of the city.
The areas flooded are as a result of total neglect by government agencies doing the needful by dredging the shallow creeks and canals that empties water into the Ocean.
Governor Wike and his goons should rise up to the task of good governance and stop radio and television jingles and propaganda. Port Harcourt city is worse ever than before with garbage littered all over the street corners, blocked under ground drainages and canals.
This same warnings had earlier been issued by the Meteorological agency months back but no action was taken by government to avoid the flooding.
Please heed to this warning now.

A stitch in time saves nine.
