Following the recent flooding incident in Borno State, the Federal Government has approved the setting up of a technical committee to review all existing dams in the country.
Minister of Information and National Orientation, Ibrahim Mohammed, disclosed this on Monday after the Federal Executive Council, FEC, meeting presided over by President Bola Tinubu.
He said the FEC approved the technical committee in order to enable the country mitigate issues that necessitate flooding in the country.
According to the Information Minister, the government is not unmindful that some of the dams which were constructed over some decades might be in need of maintenance, hence the need for the technical committee to review their durability.
