Bayelsa Government Lambasts Humanitarian Affairs Minister For Excluding State From List Of 10 Most Flooded Nigerian States Welcome to Gboard clipboard, any text you copy will be saved here.

In a statement issued on Thursday, Mr. Ayiba Duba, Commissioner for Information, Orientation and Strategy said the minister’s claim is disheartening but not surprising.


In a statement issued on Thursday, Mr. Ayiba Duba, Commissioner for Information, Orientation and Strategy said the minister’s claim is disheartening but not surprising.

According to Mr Duba, the slow response to the humanitarian crisis arising from the flood despite the President’s directive for her to come to the aid of the state confirms that the federal ministry and its agencies have abandoned their responsibilities and are not interested in managing the disaster.



She had claimed that only four local government areas of the state were impacted by the unprecedented flood.







He said, “She was obviously relying on bogus data in contradiction of the clear reality that every local government in the state is impacted by the flood in varying degrees.







“The way the minister has treated our state is so unfortunate that our people are beginning to doubt that we are part of Nigeria. She sat comfortably in Abuja to determine the most flooded!



“Is it not curious that since the devastation occasioned by the flood occurred a month ago, no representative of the Federal Government has visited our state to assess the situation?



“The Federal Government has not shown the minutest of empathy since this monumental devastation hit our state. And we are asking, is Bayelsa State still part of Nigeria? Are we only important when it is time to exploit the resources in our land?



“If the humanitarian minister is sincere, let her tell Nigerians the relief materials brought to the state and who received them.



“The minister and Indeed the Federal Government are not fair to our people who have undergone the trauma of losing loved ones, homes and livelihood.







“In fact, the minister’s bogus data with which she came to the conclusion that Bayelsa was not even one of the ten most impacted contradict basic science, common sense, concern and kindness.



“How can a state up North, Jigawa, be worst impacted when indeed Bayelsa State has the unfortunate responsibility of receiving the flood water that ran through more than 15 states?”



“The data used by the federal ministry to arrive at the conclusion is suspect and erroneous. How was it arrived at? By sitting in an office and conjuring figures? By the reality on the ground, over 300 communities were impacted by the flood and almost a million people were displaced from their homes, many of them losing their livelihood, in Bayelsa State. And no other state in the Federation is so impacted.



“If the minister is desirous of doing a good job, she should leave her cosy office in Abuja and come to Bayelsa State to ascertain the truth, even as the flood began to recede,” Duba added.

When you understand that the IDP camp is actually a channel through which the politicians gain money from the individuals on behalf of the victims of certain occurrences. But the money is actually embezzled by the politicians while the people suffer. PLEASE IF YOU HAVE ANYTHING FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE IDP CAMPS, KINDLY FIND A WAY OF GIVING THE MATERIALS DIRECTLY TO THEM. Some states don't believe that the COVID-19 palliatives were sent to them. Whereas some people are now rice merchants because of COVID-19 rice. Poverty is actually a deadly disease.
