Commissioner North Uraia Rainima states that the safety of all residents in the Northern Division, including farmers and their livelihoods, is a priority.
He has encouraged the public to remain vigilant and take proactive steps to safeguard their families and the communities.
Rainima emphasized that rising water levels have already affected low-lying areas and crossings in recent days.
However, with more rainfall expected, residents in flood-prone areas have been advised to prioritize safety and take proactive measures.
The public and motorists are urged to avoid flooded areas and to not attempt to cross flooded waters and to ensure that children and vulnerable individuals are kept away from hazardous locations.
