Hope you can recall the 2012 deadly flood?

Ask your friends to take heed and leave the flood - prone areas. God has given us brains for a reason.

I remember. That was why I made the declaration. God gave me brain and God also gave me the grace and authority to declare. I use both.

when I see statements like this, I get really annoyed. I am a Christian too,and I know the verse that says "wisdom is the principal thing, in all thy getting, get understanding". It will happen, and if they refuse to leave, they will be swallowed by flood, because even God doesn't tolerate foolishness, people would rather pray and fast instead of using their common sense to do things, to me I see it praying amiss and don't forget "faith without work is...", the work here is using your sense to do the right thing by listening to the warning

If you are a Christian and the statement
It will not happen in Jesus mighty name
makes you annoyed, then check you Christianity.

It will not happen. In Jesus name and nobody will be swallowed by flood. You want to go against the declaration? Please with things like this, back-off. On the checks, you need it. not because of this post.

Are u kidding me?? The officials says they should go to temporary place to be safe and u are.....

Your statement is just heart breaking...assuming you were Lot in the bible,U would have remained in Sodom because the fire would never happen....

I kid you not. The officials have said their own based on what they feel or know. Am I not at liberty to say my own too? Sorry dear my statement can't be heart breaking. Besides, this is not the case of Lot. I believe in my declaration. It was in the name of Jesus.

Adebayor1:
Following intense rainfall and rise in water level, the National Emergency Management Agency, NEMA, has advised communities along the river Niger to evacuate immediately to safer ground as a result of the likelihood of floods that may occur, any moment from now.
Director General of NEMA, Muhammad Sani Sidi who gave the advice on Saturday said the agency has received alerts of the flood from information given by the authorities in the Republic of Niger that the present water level in the river had reached a point that may result in the flood that could be compared with the unfortunate experience of 2012.

He said “Niger Basin Authority (NBA) notified Nigeria that rainy season, which started in the Middle Niger (Burkina Faso and Niger Republic) in June, 2016, has led to a gradual rise of the level of River Niger in Niamey, Niger Republic. This high level of water in Niger Republic is already spreading to Benin Republic, and invariably, to Nigeria”.

He disclosed that the level of water in all the hydrological monitoring stations across the country, as at Friday August, 2016, had already exceeded the corresponding values at that time, which was an alarming situation that required the prompt and coordinated action of all governments and stakeholders.

“If the heavy rainfall continues in intensity and duration within these regions of the River Niger, it is imminent that flood situation similar to that of the year 2012 may occur”, he added.m

The NEMA DG then called on all stakeholders to take necessary actions in line with their various mandates.

He added that, “The states and local government are to ensure observance with the threat in order to avert imminent loss of lives and properties that might certainly arise in the event of flood.”

Sidi identified the states along the river Niger belts as being the most vulnerable as well as those along its major tributaries that includes Benue river belts, the confluence states and downstream to the Atlantic Coast.

NEMA Zonal and Operation offices, he noted, have been instructed to continue with advocacy visit to the state governments and also urged the state to utilize the flood vulnerability maps given to them earlier by NEMA to identify safer ground for temporary shelters in time of evacuation as well as reviewing all their contingency plans.

I am not gonna debate my Christianity with you, and I don't serve you either, I choose to use the bible as my guide not a human being,so if you disagree with my comment, why don't you counter it with bible verses like I did and yes I have a problem with lazy Christians who think God is a magician, and let me guess, the likes made you feel the urge to quote me,take note of this comment, and when the Niger eventually overflows and meets them there,you will understand "thou shall not tempt the Lord your God".

Don't mind them, to them everything is politics
If affected by this advice, the people asking this silly questions will finish moving and then come to Nairaland to ask people to ignore it
Because they need manufactured crises to score political points against the government
