Benue State Government has distributed life jackets to ferry operators and passengers on the River Buruku jetty in Buruku Local Government Area of the state.

The life jackets were distributed by Governor Hyacinth Alia to prepare ahead of the impending 2024 flood and to eradicate the issue of losing lives in the River Buruku.

Governor Alia, represented by the acting executive secretary of the Benue State Emergency Management Agency, BSEMA, James Iorpuu, appealed to the people of Buruku to make judicious use of the jackets to avoid loss of life in the impending 2024 flood and should any accident occur while crossing the river.

Iorpuu said the National Emergency Management Agency, NEMA, had earlier informed Benue State of the impending flood and to respond to their alert, BSEMA has swung into action to avoid disasters that will cost lives.

He said Governor Alia has carefully selected the people in Buruku Local Government Area to help him deliver to the good people of Benue State.
