Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo of Kogi state has urged the federal government to come to the aid of the state in tackling the menace of insecurity and incessant flooding ravaging some parts of the state.
This was contained in a statement on Friday by Ismaila Isah, Special Adviser to the Governor on Media, who quoted Governor Ododo to have made the call when he received a delegation of the Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission, RMAFC at the Government House, Lokoja.
According to the Kogi helsman, the state is in urgent need of improved financial intervention from the federal government to address challenges of insecurity and flooding.
He further stressed that the problems of insecurity and perennial flooding could have an adverse effect on the federal capital Abuja and other neighbouring states if left unabated.
