Nigeria really needs a much better drainage system. Dont get me wrong, this too does happen in developed countries with superb drains, and having a better drainage system will not entirely rule out flooding but will minimize the devastating effect. Our people also need to be educated, cos most of us don't even know the importance of a good and unclogged drain. Failure to do these and more, and we'll just be going round in circles. My honest 2 cents.

Chai! The poor people. I've been seeing flooding but this looks like a hurricane scene. All their possessions must be damaged and they are all at very high risk of waterborne diseases and other infections. Too bad. I wonder what relief efforts have been put in place.

This is REALLY bad. I never gave it much thought until now. A picture really does say a thousand words.

What relief efforts are in place? Does anyone know?

Of course, but what did these goats plan doing or do when they were fore-warned by NEMA months ago....NOTHING....apart from Fashola!

you are correct. The problem of Nigeria is created by Nigerians . Irrespective of those in power, we are who we are very lawless people. Always expecting the government to Do everything for us without us doing our quota. Till we learn to discipline ourselves, all this would continue. Where i stay presently, drainages were actually created and quite deep ones for that matter but what people living around here do is that, they pour the refuse into the drainage now the drainages are filled up to the brim. Just imagine what would happen if the whole place becomes flooded.. U can just imagine!

This is really bad. But I doubt if the Govt is to blame. This is a natural disaster and no govt can stop Such. The only Responsibilty of the government is to manage the crisis and provide adequate and immediate help to the people. NEMA, work don land o!
God, please help and protect your Children.

I was once enlightened that there are three things one should learn and know how to do in this 21st century we are in :
1. Drive a car
2. Operate a computer
3. Know how to swim

At least 70'/, of the Earth is water

This is terrible. No wonder the Senate is urging President GEJ to submit a supplementary budget that would address the immediate needs of victims of flooding in
parts of the country.
