On 23rd October 2024, Hon. Nnamdi Ezechi, representing Ndokwa/Ukwuani Federal Constituency, presented a motion of urgent public importance before the House of Representatives, calling for immediate federal intervention to address the ongoing flooding crisis in his constituency. The motion focused on the severe flooding affecting Ndokwa East, Ndokwa West, and Ukwuani Local Government Areas of Delta State.

Hon. Ezechi emphasized that the 2024 flooding has begun earlier than anticipated, affecting key communities such as Utchi, Abala, Okpai, Beneku, and Aboh, among others. He highlighted the devastating impact of the flooding on homes, farmlands, schools, and essential public infrastructure.

In response, the House resolved to urge the Federal Government through NIHSA to conduct an immediate technical assessment; call on NEMA to deliver urgent relief materials; mandate the Ecological Fund Office to release funds for erosion and flood control in the affected LGAs; and direct relevant House Committees to oversee the implementation of flood mitigation strategies.
