NEMA, NSCDC partner to tackle election, flood emergencies

NEMA said in a statement issued in Abuja on Friday that the partnership would ensure improved service delivery in the areas of disaster management.

It said the agreement was signed in Abuja by the Director-General, NEMA, Mustapha Ahmed, and Commandant-General, NSCDC, Abubakar Audi, at the NSCDC headquarters. Ahmed said the MoU was a step in the right direction towards the better provision of safety, security and dignity of Nigerians before, during and after a sudden onset of disasters and emergencies.

He was quoted as saying, “The partnership has become imperative as we make a renewed resolve to confront the growing complexity of disaster and the attendant humanitarian outcomes in Nigeria driven by conflicts and powered by extreme weather and climatic events.” Ahmed said the MoU would further drive a well-coordinated and stronger partnership between both agencies “for the management of disasters, especially as we start preparation for this year’s annual floods and any possible eventuality that might arise during the upcoming general elections in Nigeria in less than a month from now.”
