The governor also confirmed that structures on waterways will be removed. He specifically mentioned the main road at Olodo, where habitants had already moved out of their houses. He promised that his govt will enumerate such properties & relocate those people and continue to work with those in flood prone areas to ensure that they are protected.

Makinde noted that the river is already being dredged under the IUFMP. But observed that the Sawmill Bridge is undersized. He confirmed that he has reached out to Local Government Caretaker Chairman to seek an approval so that work can commence to construct a new bridge.

Heavy equipment was immediately moved to the site and work has since commenced.
