FG Warns of Lagdo Dam Water Release
The Federal Government has informed Nigerians about upcoming water releases from the Lagdo Dam in Cameroon. According to a statement from Umar Muhammed, Director General of the Nigeria Hydrological Services Agency, controlled releases will begin on September 17, 2023. The flow rate will increase gradually from 100 cubic meters per second to 1,000 cubic meters per second over the next week.
The agency reassured the public that there is no immediate danger of major flooding, as current water levels in the Benue River remain within safe limits. However, states along the Benue River should remain vigilant and prepare for possible impacts. The agency will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates to help mitigate potential flooding risks.
It was reported that bandits were seen in Kwara State and abducted six residents from Rukpete Village.
The incident was reported to have occurred on June 8 at about 11 p.m.
Sources revealed that seven people were initially taken, but an elderly man was later released, leaving six victims in captivity.
The rising cases of insecurity in the country remain quite alarming.
The state of the country is affecting many people, as they believe nowhere is safe, including schools where they keep their children.
It has been reported that some parents have started withdrawing their children from schools in Abuja.
It can be noted that rumours of bandits being sighted near a school triggered panic, causing parents to hurriedly remove their children for safety.
While the reports of bandits have not been confirmed, the school has also issued safety measures to ensure the protection of students within the premises.
It has been rumored that bandits have made their way to Lagos, and allegedly they were spotted in Ibeju-Lekki, where some residents became suspicious of them and reported the matter.
A clip of the group of men went viral online, and many people became concerned. Whether true or not, fear has been sparked among Lagosians as they worry that bandits may already be in the state. Even if the reports remain unconfirmed, many believe it is still a possibility worth paying attention to.
