The Delta State Government has urged residents to prioritize emergency preparedness, emphasizing that small decisions made ahead of time can help save lives during critical situations.

According to the advisory, keeping important emergency contacts readily available and knowing where to seek help during crises are key steps toward improving safety and response.

The government noted that preparedness should not be seen as a one-time action but as a daily habit that strengthens confidence and resilience in communities. By staying informed, equipping homes with basic safety knowledge, and supporting community awareness, residents can help build a culture where people are ready and responsive when emergencies arise.

Authorities encouraged the public to take advantage of available emergency services and keep the relevant hotlines within reach.
