The delta state government has failed woefully in the discharge of his duty. But delta state indigenes are good swimmers so I am convinced beyond reasonable doubt that they will survive the flood
Lagos don't dey experience flood years b4 delta.
What about tsunami, earthquake etc They are called natural disasters and govts have been sounding out warning since.
Stop being mischievious

Rising sea level... it is predicted that in another 50years... 2/3 of the world will be under water.

The Earth is just readjusting to human distortions... Reasons people like Elon Musk are planing on relocating to mars.

This is aslo in the Bible

Say what you know and stop these hasty conclusions...most of these communities like uzere especially araya and emede are kilometers away from a water bodies.......this is a natural disaster and i jope the fulani NERMA responds immediately to amiliorate the sufferngs of the people of ISOKOLAND AND NIGERDELTA AS A WHOLE...we saw responding to flood victims in jigawa State same days ago.
Nigerdelta communities in such predicament must be accorded with same gesture from NERMA.

The bulk of their oil money is shared to northern states not minding the environmental problem in their community.

If Nigeria is restructured it will enable these community to benefit from crude oil exploration in their region.

I doubt a flood of this magnitude could have been prevented. The area might have been below sea level. The river probably broke its banks and no amount of canals would have stopped that.
