The Oyo State Nigeria Erosion and Watershed Management Project (Oyonewmap) has appealed to residents not to ignore early warning messages, as its officials embark on a sensitisation exercise in the state.

The Project Coordinator of Oyo State Nigeria Erosion and Watershed Management Project (Oyonewmap), Tayo Ayoade, said the project will embark on an advocacy and sensitisation programme on early warning and action on flood hazards throughout the State.

Ayoade said this while speaking with journalists during the week in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital.

He stated that the advocacy and sensitisation targeted at all the stakeholders in 33 Local Government Areas will be held in six(6) zones across the State.

“Oyonewmap has improved its information-gathering and dissemination so it can play a stronger early warning role”, he said.

According to Ayoade, the advocacy and sensitisation programme will hold between 16th -24th April 2024 in Iseyin,  Ogbomoso, Ibarapa, Oyo, Saki and Ibadan.

He noted that the programme became necessary to sensitise the residents of Oyo State on steps that can be taken to avert flood disaster.

Ayoade therefore appealed to residents to imbibe the culture of safety and engage in environmentally friendly practices/activities as well ensure that their wastes are properly disposed of to avert flooding and erosion.
