 Presidential candidate of Labour Party, Mr Peter Ubi, has asked the federal government to declare a state of emergency on all flood affected areas across the country. At a visit to Flood Vicent in Ibi Local Government Area of Tarawa State, the presidential hopeful also urged the government to adopt global best practices of desilting all waters to avert a recurrence of this year's flood direct havoc across the nation. What federal governments need to do or what Nigerians need to do to stop this is to ensure that the waters are desiltered, the rivers. If you look at it, they've all been silted and you need to work on them. This is easy, it's done globally all over the world and it is because it's silted, it can no longer hold water, it can no longer hold anything. So you need to do it, controls are being awarded for this and it's not being executed. What the Labour State Government is doing is to see how we can help these people so that those of them that have had their houses were destroyed will help them to see that they rebuild their houses. Some of them that have lost their palm lands were hoping that and we have done some of it. We are hoping that we will help them to see that they recover some of the things that they have lost.
