The Federal Government, through the Minister of Water Resources, Mr Suleiman Adamu, has said that the Lagdo Dam in Cameroon was not responsible for the flooding that has devastated parts of Nigeria.
This is just as the government said no fewer than 4,885 households were affected by the recent flooding in Ogun
Adamu made this known during the 2023 budget defence of the ministry before the Senate in Abuja on Wednesday.
The minister attributed the flood to water flowing from tributaries of the River Benue like the River Katsina-Ala and others into the River Benue due to downpour.
