Hajiya Zainab Suleiman-Saidu, Head of Operations, National Emergency Management Agency, NEMA, Minna Operations Office, says disaster management is everybody’s business and not just the business of Federal Government agencies.

Suleiman-Saidu said this on Tuesday at a one-day stakeholders’ workshop on Sustainable Waste Management and Flood Preparedness held at Kwara State Library, Ilorin. According to her, flood preparedness and waste management require a collaborative effort from governments, the private sector and local communities to build resilience against natural disasters.

She said with the increasing frequency and severity of floods due to climate change, proactive measures are essential. “Disaster management is not just the business of NEMA or government agencies. It is everybody’s business. “We must put our heads together to manage the disaster in 2024. We must show concern and stop showing negligence. “Flood preparedness is very vital for safeguarding lives and property.
