Speaking in Abuja at the 2021 Seasonal Climate Prediction (SCP), Minister of Aviation, Hadi Sirika, made the disclosure on the severe dry spells. He urged farmers to embark on “soil-moisture conservation techniques” to reduce chances of crop failure during the period, Daily Sun reports.

While maintaining that climate change may bring big damage to farming and other ventures, and also cause famine, Sirika tasked the states to adhere to the forecast by the Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NIMET) in order to prevent bad consequences.

He gave the states as: Kebbi Sokoto Zamfara Katsina Yobe Borno He gave the local government areas and communities to be affected as:

He gave the local government areas and communities to be affected as:

Shinkafi Birnin Magaji Maradun Zurmi Zamfara Kaita Mashi Mai’Adua Katsina Dutsi Daura Baure Zango Katsina Gwiwa Arewa Dandi Birnin Kebbi Argungu, Augie Kebbi Illela Gada Tangaza Gudu Sabon Birni Sokoto Yankwashi Gumel Birniwa Sule-Tankarkar, Guri Kiri Kasama Jigawa Machina Nguru Yusufari Yunusari Karasuwa Barde Jakusko Geidam Yobe and Abadam Mobbar Kukawa Guzamala Gubio Nganzai Monguno Borno state

Meanwhile, with coronavirus taking a dangerous curve on the country, the presidential task force on Monday, February 1, announced the list of five states and 22 local government areas in Nigeria with a large spread of the COVID-19 infection.

Addressing pressmen during a media briefing in Abuja, the national coordinator of the PTF, Dr Sani Aliyu, warned Nigerians against travelling to the affected states. According to him, the high-burdened states and LGAs contribute to 95% of the daily infection.

He gave the states as Yobe, Jigawa, Zamfara, Kebbi and Kogi. “These local government areas which are mostly in the cities or the state capitals contribute over 95 per cent of the epidemic, particularly new cases in the country.”
