Heavy Rains, Rising Waters: Flooding Affects Parts of Abuja Campus, Uniport.
As heavy rainfall continues across Rivers State, parts of the University of Port Harcourtβs Abuja Campus have also experienced flooding, affecting movement around some sections of the campus.
Our correspondent observed the situation around Dan Etete Drive, Ofrima Roundabout, UPWA International School, etc where accumulated water covered parts of the roadway and made movement more difficult for students and other road users.
Reports reaching us indicate that the Vice Chancellor, Prof. Chike R. Princewill Chike, was on a tour of some affected parts of the campus to assess the situation.
The flooding comes amid the heavy rains being experienced across Rivers State, with several communities and locations also recording varying degrees of flooding.
While the situation has temporarily affected movement in parts of the campus, students continue with their academic activities and ongoing examinations.
We will continue to monitor developments.
