So, we have to create conditions of resilience. In this sense, the Government will issue regular warnings to keep the population informed and prepared for weather conditions that may not be favourable to life, production or infrastructure,\u201d the head of state stated.<\/p>\n<p>President Nyusi warned that forecasts indicate that the country will once again \u201crecord the \u2018El Nino\u0303\u2019 phenomenon\u201d, which \u201ccould bring normal rains with a tendency to above normal in the centre and north of the country, and normal rains with a tendency to below normal, which could lead to some outbreaks of drought in the southern region\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis requires us all to be cautious and prepared to face this challenge caused by climate change. Let us organise ourselves. I call on you to save and reserve water for consumption and for our livestock,\u201d he further warned.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is an appeal that I make to the entire country. Therefore, let us be attentive and follow the guidelines to mitigate the impact, avoiding or minimising damage and losses, including human lives, on the one hand, on the other, that we carry out adequate management and responsibility for water, especially in times of scarcity,\u201d he added in the same message.<\/p>\n<p>Mozambique is considered one of the countries most severely affected by climate change in the world, cyclically facing floods and tropical cyclones during the rainy season, which runs between October and April.<\/p>\n<p>The 2018-2019 rainy season in Mozambique was one of the most severe in living memory. Seven hundred and fourteen people died, including 648 victims of cyclones Idai and Kenneth, two of the biggest ever to hit the country.<\/p>\n<p>In the first quarter of last year, intense rains and the passage of Cyclone Freddy caused 306 deaths, affecting more than 1.3 million people in the country and destroying 236,000 homes and 3,200 classrooms, according to official figures.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
