In a report published by The Guardian Nigeria News, the experts have highlighted the need for early intervention to mitigate the impact of disasters in the country.

The Nextier team, made up of experts in various fields, emphasized that early action is crucial to prevent further tragedies. They pointed out that the Nigerian government and relevant authorities must prioritize disaster risk reduction and preparedness strategies.

‘We have seen the devastating effects of disasters on communities across the country. It is essential that we take proactive measures to minimize the impact of future disasters,’ said one of the experts.

The experts also stressed the importance of investing in early warning systems and evacuation plans, particularly in vulnerable areas. They highlighted that such measures could significantly reduce the number of casualties in the event of a disaster.
