The permanent secretary of the ministry, Richard Pheelangwah, in a statement on Monday, said the minister, Prof. Joseph Utsev, had direct communication with the Lagdo Dam manager, Mr. Ahmad Bivoung, on Monday, who confirmed that the dam was currently at a low level of 2.06 metres and no water had been released.

He said the ministry is currently in constant communication with Cameroonian authorities and assures the public that any official release of water will be promptly communicated.

The minister urged the public to disregard false reports and remain calm while continuing to observe flood safety and preparedness measures that were earlier issued.

Utsev also advised communities receiving early warning signals, particularly in Lokoja (Kogi State), Wurobokki (Adamawa State), and Makurdi (Benue State), to maintain them and consult the NIHSA Flood Dashboard for reliable, up-to-date information.
