Mr Mustapha Maihaja, it’s Director-General, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), on Tuesday in Abuja that it was important to bring key stakeholders in disaster management together to chart the way forward toward handling the predictions.

 

“Preparations and planning are key to any successful activity or project. Knowing our role in disaster management, we started our planning since October through November, last year.

 

“So, we have come out with a work plan that guides us on a step-by-step approach to possibilities.

 

“And with the seasonal rainfall prediction released, we will now engage all stakeholders for technical meetings.

 

“The report will be analysed vis a vis the possibilities as far as disaster management is concerned and at the end, we will come out with a disaster management implications and socioeconomic consequences should the floods occur,” he said.

 

The director-general added that the organisation would be airing sensitisation campaigns through radio jingles and television programmes.

 

He added that the organisation had also perfected plans on sensitising flood-prone communities through video clips.

 

“We intend to bring a new approach to sensitising people as we have made plans to go directly to these flood-prone communities with video clips to show them the dangers of staying in these areas in case floods occurs.
