Have the governors, Senators and Representatives concerned requested for declaration of state of emergency in their domains?

Obi is not smart….. on original flood.

Many countries are going through a lot too. Obi not let your garagara destroy things. I’m afraid for you if you enter. Boko-haram and bandit will show you pepper with this dying economy.

What has Tinubu done or said about the flood issues?

I'm ashamed how many of you are displaying ignorance. You needn't be a fan of the man to reason well. Funny how low thinkers are the ones badmouthing a solution provider, just because their political god wants to be president too.

Young people!! Future generation. This country has been hijacked by the elites oo. We better wake up on time. We better do things in the interest of the common man instead of heroworshipping old corrupt power seekers responsible for the mess we're already drowning in. How many of them elites are even affected by this flood. Hasn't GEJ long fled Otueke on chopper on hearing the flood was getting close his mansion?

Let's be open-minded and encourage people that mean well for the common man. For me, Peter Obi one such. All we're seeing of him now the same empathy for suffering people. If you see a man that can't be comfortable until his people are rescued, you'll know.

Peter Obi is one of us. He's not the typical Nigerian politician. He feels our pains and eats our food. He'll genuinely work for the good of the masses, and that's why most politicians are against him. The things he says tells you he has fallen out with the hijackers of our democracy (if he was ever in their good books before now). They won't support him except the few that mean well for our dear country. The only encouragement Peter Obi needs now is your support. Let's be his structure. He needs us to be able to help us, for a better Nigeria.

May God prosper Nigeria under the administration of Peter Obi, the incoming president of Nigeria, in Jesus' Name. Amen

You don't understand the reason for declaring a State of Emergency hence you can't decode Peter Obi's statement.

A State of Emergency enables a President or Governor to shift funds appropriated for some other ministries and projects without breaking the law. A budget is a law passed by the Parliament and signed by the Executive. It's an impeachable offence to spend money not budgeted by the Parliament.

Lol states should be able to be able to declare there own states of emergency. Alot of people act like declaring a state emergency makes magic happen.

State of emergency allows the federal government take charge. State government alone cannot tackle the problem, the FG heavy presence is needed. How can 33 states of the country be experiencing flooding and the President has not decleared state of emergency, no warning alert?

APC and Buhari will remain the worst government President Nigeria ever had.

Vote wisely

So many kids here on nairaland like the two above. Declaring an event a state of emergency doesn't mean declaring the state lawless, it simply means declaring the event a national interest which needs to be accorded urgent response.

Your hate for OBi is killing your sense of human sympathy. People are suffering.

Kindly read this report below on the cause of the flood and tell me if this shouldn't be declared a state of emergency.

https://www.pulse.ng/news/local/why-a-dam-in-cameroon-causes-devastating-floods-in-nigeria-every-year/py1twye?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=daily-2022-10-11

The governments have long denied your insinuations on the cause of flooding. Flooding is a global problem and mainly a result of global warming and climate change. It is not solved by taking pictures inside the flood or stopping campaigns. Obi swam inside flood with glee in Anambra state, they are still experiencing the floods, even worse. All he could do was post pictures of giving his people 24 loaves and asking for state of emergency like a kid. Is this how he wants to be misbehaving and erratic as president?
Re: Declare State Of Emergency On Flood-ravaged States - Obi Tells FG by Jnkay: 10:32am On Oct 27, 2022
The flood is still coming and it might continue to kill and destroy. So there is a need for emergency in every overflooded state (State of emergency) to ensure rescue mission, volunteers and safety of lives.

They're already allowed to take charge. It's like you guys don't remember the previous times states of emergency were declared. It's baffling how quickly you guys forget. If it's about money they can release funds. If NIMET didn't give warning that is failure on that agency.

Re: Declare State Of Emergency On Flood-ravaged States - Obi Tells FG by Mazzkenny: 11:57am On Oct 27, 2022
The governors should be the ones that would declare a state of emergency if need be. Then, can call the federal government for help if they don't have enough resources.

Many of you here sound so ignorant and petty. Peter Obi understands the situation more than you do having been in charge previously.
Obi has called for the dredging of both the Niger and Benue rivers to give them more depths to hold more water. Of the rivers have been dredged long ago, some of the water flowing into people's homes would've been retained.
Desilting is another measure he has recommended as this will clear the rivers of dirts and particles and allow them more space to hold water.
It's a shame many you make comments here without understanding the issues

Everybody knows about dredging and desilting, it is not an Obi idea or call. We all saw the futility of his swimming in floods in Anambra as governor for 8 years. Flooding is still an annual occurrence and worse there. It's so bad that Obi avoided the place as much as possible forgetting that charity begins at home. After much dragging, he went there to post about 24loaves of bread. A stingy billionaire that can't give shishi to his own people.

Lol. I mean state of emergency has nothing to do with fund. It means Federal government should take over. Anyway we have no Federal government. I cannot imagine Nigeria is in this sort of hell and Buhari has the audacity to travel out. What are the chances that a military take over is not in the offing?

I mean Nigeria is very fragile and to those who elected Buhari for whatever reason, this is what you get for being myopic and stupid.

2023 is at the corner, you all should vote wisely

Your solution to this problem is to give the federal government more power? Again what magic will the preform no that they have this vaunted power you guys are cheerleader for? You already told me they're incompetent. What miracle did they preform last time in the other sector they declared emergency in? These aren't rhetorical questions please educate me.

They are suppose to mobilise all agencies, draw attention of international and humanitarian aids, show that it is a serious crises. Even media houses are not talking about it because Federal government do not take it serious.

What does that do, it brings about galvanising people to come to aid
