FLOOD COULD CAUSE NIGERIA POTENTIAL DAMAGES

FLOOD COULD CAUSE NIGERIA POTENTIAL DAMAGES   Well, little effort has been put in place in order to help combat the unforeseen flood disaster. Among this is awareness to help people prevent these challenges, building of channel for water passage, drainage and evacuating the living and building along the water path. Despite the effort putting in place people still show nonchalant attitude toward flood awareness program. I would still say that if Nigeria experiences more rainfall that is beyond that of 2012, many lives and property worth millions will be destroy as a result of nonchalant attitude of the people, small size of drainage system and low quality of material for building drainage system and inaction of the leaders.

Introduction ICT and agricultural finance are two separate keywords; before the link could be established, there is need to understand both theoretical and practical working knowledge of both keywords.   Several articles and discussions had been done on the effective of information and communication technology in agriculture sectors. Huge innovations ensuring flow of finance and eliminating barriers mitigating the availability and flow of fund in the value chain had been experienced. Since there is no standard definition of ICT in the ICT sectors, I would like to analyze the acronym “ICT” one after the other related to their functions in the value chain. The word “I” which stand for information is very critical and its availability will help the financial institutions to make relevant decision whether to release funds to the small scale producers or not e.g. records of farm activities, prices of goods, market and fund availability. “C” for communication is the conveyin...
