She advised residents to remain vigilant, pay attention to weather and flood warnings, avoid crossing flooded roads and waterways, and relocate to safer areas when necessary. She also appealed to residents to maintain clean surroundings and stop dumping refuse in drainage channels, warning that blocked waterways could worsen flooding and endanger lives and property.
