THE Nigeria meteorological Agency, NiMET, predicted heavy rainfall in thirteen states in the coming days. NiMET in a statement released today June 19 said the affected states could experience flash floods on roads, bridges and low-lying areas which can disrupt vehicular traffic.
The predicted states are Niger, Plateau, Benue, Kaduna, Taraba, Delta and Imo. Others are Cross River, Akwa Ibom, Rivers, Bayelsa, Ekiti and Osun states.
Moderate to Heavy rainfall is also anticipated over parts of Zamfara, Kano, Borno, Gombe, Adamawa, Kogi, Kwara, Nasarawa, Ogun, Oyo, Ondo, Lagos, Edo, Enugu, Ebonyi and Anambra states.
