It will likely overflow its bank and affect people living in the area. We advise that they relocate temporarily until the water level goes down&#8221;<br \/>\nIt would be recalled that around September 2012, flood ravaged some parts of the oil producing communities in the riverine areas thereby rendering thousands homeless while few died. The federal government was forced to give Imo state N400m to soothe the nerves of people affected by the natural disaster.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The National Emergency
