President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has approved N108 billion to help Nigeria’s 36 states deal with natural disasters like floods and droughts. Each state will get N3 billion to improve their emergency response and protect people in times of crisis.
Each of the 36 states in Nigeria will receive N3 billion from the total N108 billion. This money will help states prepare better for disasters and respond faster when they happen. The funds will be used to help communities affected by floods, rebuild damaged roads and buildings, and protect people from future disasters.
Nigeria faces many natural disasters, especially floods, which damage homes, destroy farms, and make people lose their businesses. Without enough money, states find it hard to recover quickly and help the people affected. President Tinubu’s plan to provide funds will allow states to better handle emergencies.
The N3 billion for each state will also help them prepare for future disasters. The money can be used to build stronger roads, better drainage systems, and improve town planning. With better preparation, communities will suffer less damage when disasters strike.
For the everyday person, this funding brings hope. Many people lose their homes and livelihoods when natural disasters happen. These funds will allow the government to provide faster relief, help rebuild damaged areas, and get people back to their normal lives.
President Tinubu’s approval of N108 billion for disaster relief is a great step towards helping states prepare and respond to natural disasters. With N3 billion each, states can improve their response systems, protect their citizens, and create a safer Nigeria for the future.
