Tahir in an interview with newsmen on the recent flooding in Jigawa, Kano and some parts of northern Nigeria, expressed worry over the magnitude of the flood in 2022, which resulted in the loss of lives and destruction of properties.

He said although Nigerians believe in the acts of God when disasters occur, global warming remains a worldwide phenomenon. He said the lakes act as reservoirs for surplus waters from rainfall that provide much-needed relief from intense heat and act as a consistent supply for underground lakes and aid in erosion control.
