Residents in downstream areas have had to evacuate due to flooding
According to Minister Pemmy Majodina, the people who are complaining should blame themselves because they crowd their floodline.
They shouldn't be there and shouldn't have constructed their properties, the best course of action for them is to leave or risk being washed away.
Since they posed a risk to both themselves and the dam, they were supposed to be arrested.
