Many stakeholders who have engagements in Amassoma for the first time often ask if the community especially the Niger Delta University, NDU is usually flooded; most of whom are applicants, parents, sponsors, guardians, visitors amongst many others.
It seems there is an overstatement as to what is obtainable here in Amassoma, hence we made this publication to clarify the state of affairs in the community.
Although Amassoma is one of the flood affected communities in Bayelsa State, it is however, not as portrayed outside as many would be applicants/students avoid coming to the University because of fear of flood. Please note that the Niger Delta University is NOT flooded.

There is however, a section of the University that is flooded with water which include the security, EFT, Admissions and library buildings. But this small section of the University being affected by flood does not in anyway affect the University operations as the buildings affected are still accessible at the peak of the flood.
To counter the effect of the flood, the Vice Chancellor, having the needed foresight, had elevated all the roads and buildings affected by the flood. Hence, it is expected that no part of the University would be flooded this year.
The only challenge is that student’s apartments in the town may be flooded and this may affect their learning – something that may necessitate the management to suspend academic activities like in previous sessions (2012, 2018 and 2019 academic session).
It is expected that in this session, NDU will be totally flood free, although, there may be flood in the town.

For now, (September 28th), the main flood haven’t shown its ugly face. Still observing to see the extent it will get to.
