The greatest threat to stormwater infrastructure is waste, and plastic waste remains one of the leading causes of flooding worldwide.

Recycling alone is not enough. The real solution is to reduce plastic production and hold producers accountable for the waste they create.

[EdoFEWMA @EdoStateFEWMA]

Climate change has evolved from a future threat into an immediate flooding crisis.

Mitigating this risk requires urgent action from each of us such as, preserving natural wetlands, accelerating tree planting initiatives, and upholding urban planning regulations.

Happy New Month.

A Flood-free Edo is possible.

Clogged drainages are not just an eyesore, but a major cause of flooding. So as the weekend kicks off, dispose wastes responsibly to safeguard our communities.

Climate change stewardship is a shared responsibility whose benefits should be enjoyed by all people, irrespective of their social status, ethnicity, cultural background, or religious affiliation.

Today, we do not just celebrate a system of government; we celebrate ourselves, our resilience, our stories, and the vibrant tapestry of cultures that makes us who we are.

Clear drains mean safer streets.

As we mark World Environment Day, we urge residents to kindly dispose of waste properly and keep drainage pathways clear to ensure the free flow of rainwater, for a resilient Edo State.

Kindly report any scrap collectors or individuals removing manhole covers from our roadways because when the next heavy downpour hits, the stormwater network will not be able to channel the water away, causing immediate street flooding and residential flooding.

Happy Children's day.
Let's teach our children to be Stormwater Stewards.

[EdoFEWMA @EdoStateFEWMA]

Please immediately report any scrap collectors or individuals removing manhole covers from our roadways. Manhole covers are vital components of our flood control infrastructure. When stolen for scrap iron, these open shafts become severe public safety hazards.

We live on a planet where air pollution has become the greatest environmental health risk, claiming over 8.1 million lives every year. But the smoke in our skies and the heat on our planet are deeply connected.

[EdoFEWMA @EdoStateFEWMA]

Edo State’s soil profile is characterized by high erodibility, making it vulnerable to rapid degradation upon the exposure of the topsoil. 
By deploying vegetative cover like trees and deep-rooted vetiver grass, the soil can be protected from environmental stressors.
