 Now, an U.S. governor, Charles Soludo, has called on the federal government and all the development partners to come to the rescue of the state. Lamenting that between 30 to 40 percent of its land is threatened by erosion and their ecological problems. Soludo, who stated this when he visited Vice President Yemio Shimbajo at the State House in Abuja, said that erosion had become a state of emergency, an estate and that even the state's entire budget for 10 consecutive years would not be enough to remedy the situation. He said only an immediate intervention from the federal government and development partners could save the situation.
