The Council of Registered Builders of Nigeria (CORBON) has said that quick action is needed to transform the country’s rivers from threats into strategic economic assets.
The group recently shared that floodplain mismanagement is the main reason why flooding is never-ending across Nigeria.
Speaking during an interview, the council’s Chairman, Dr Samson Opaluwah, spoke about the lingering inconvenience seasonal floods have been causing in riverine communities.
