    The Nigeria Hydrological Services Agency (NIHSA) has announced a slight decrease in River Benue’s water levels in recent days, lowering the risk of severe flooding.

    NIHSA’s Director-General, Mr Umar Mohammed, disclosed this in a statement issued on Saturday in Abuja.

    Mohammed reaffirmed the agency’s commitment to monitoring the water levels of the nation’s major rivers and tributaries, as part of its overall flood management strategy in Nigeria.

    He urged citizens to remain vigilant due to unpredictable climate conditions and to continue observing flood preparedness protocols.




    “NIHSA is working closely with the authorities and management of Lagdo Dam regarding water releases, and the agency is committed to monitoring water levels at critical stations,” he said.

    Recall that NIHSA’s 2024 Annual Flood Outlook revealed that 148 Local Government Areas across 31 states are at high risk of flooding.

    The affected states include Adamawa, Akwa-Ibom, Anambra, Bauchi, Bayelsa, Benue, Borno, Cross River, Delta, Ebonyi, Edo, Imo, Jigawa, Kaduna, Kano, Katsina and Kebbi.

    Others are Kogi, Kwara, Lagos, Nasarawa, Niger, Ogun, Ondo, Osun, Oyo, Plateau, Rivers, Sokoto, Taraba and Yobe.
