Dickson in a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Daniel Iworiso-Markson attributed the floods to the entire state resting below sea level and surrounded by water.

He‎ however advised Bayelsans to observe environmental best practices by cleaning their surroundings always, particularly drainages so as to allow the free flow of water when it rains.
