oh, dem no get drainage like Lagos eh.

Pls don't panic, GEJ is on top of the situation

Same story everywhere, Lagos, Abuja and every other corner.

Still not as bad Lagos and Ibadan floods.

who we go ask?

Yeah, why the panic folks. Surely, we all know and believe that 'GEJ is on top of the situation'. So very much on top!!! lol

no proper drainage in centre abuja, na WA OO!!!

NIJA REMAINS NIJA

I am usually critical of Naija but if these pictures show us the worst of the effects of the rain, then it is a non issue! Blown down trees is not the fault of the government and the roads are not flooded, just a lot of water which will can be expected during torrential rainfalls and it probably cleared in an hour or two.

Ridiculous. Nice city, nice building, nice garden but POOR drainage.

Yes, GEJ is on top of the situation while the citizens are below it!

Dis kind of grammatical construction makes one to lose interest in some threads,u beta stick to hausa,@least u dnt get pple pissd off

hopefully they will spend more money (and brains) in building the nuclear plants,

those areas are not residential

This is an evidence of the type of government that we have in Nigeria

The water clears less than 30minutes after the rainfall,

Everybody is just mentioning GEJ, IS there no minister in ranks for environment??


Nobody from the environmental ministry has escalated any issue of non availability of fund to carry out their functions, yet we all point fingers to GeJ all the time. He has a Cabinet, and I think Federalism has to do with collective responsibility right from the federal level to the local govt.levels. Besides let question the minister of FCT on this

Haba, Abuja too? This is depressing, when will we start getting things right in this country?

@pinkrex, you are 1000% right

who will save Nigeria

Heeeeeyyy!!!!!  is that garki? ?
wonders shall never end.

Unless the gutters have been blocked from way outside the city or by debris due to wind.
kai ! !

well sha they will fix it soon enough.
Big man's city plus seat of govt.
they will fix it, whatever it is.

Yeah, just like Yar'dua, OBJ, Abubakar, Abacha, IBB, Buhari, and all the other rogues who have 'ruled' Nigeria.
The basic design plan for Abuja is faulty according to Awolowo, the problem didn't even start today.
Apart from this avoidable flood, don't forget too that the city planners also forget that people who live there would need adequate water supply, etc.

What has the Flood in Abuja got to do with GEJ? Most of you need to grow up. If the volume of water due to rainfall is more than the capacity the drainage can accommodate, then the road will be over-flooded.

Developed countries like China, US, Japan e.t.c. have experienced terrible floods this year.

GEJ uprooted the trees too.

Soon we will hear that GEJ made you not to satisfy your w, fe if you are married at all. Stupid!

so did our satellites inform us of an impending HURRICANE or TYPHOON as some people want to believe occurred in the pictures, ?

wowo2:

so did our satellites inform us of an impending HURRICANE or TYPHOON as some people want to believe occurred in the pictures, ?

Even if the satellites informed you, what would you have done?
At highs you'll have an emergency response team ready, or can you measure the accurate falls and also estimate its damages?

You slow poke people are too irrational for my liking, you just wait to criticise everything in a blunt manner, haba!

there is still hope

pinkrex:

Assuming u are correct,
was the Ministers for Environment appointed by me or u?
Does the Environ Minister report to u and I?

Even at that, if the Minister of environ does something good, who will take the credit
if not GEJ and FG?

Don't you know the procedures?

We vote GEJ into power

He nominates people for his cabinet

They go through senate clearing

Senate clears whoever they deem fit

Jonathan appoints him.

He appoints his own team up to the local level.



Lets for once hold this people from the lower level, they might take advantage of our blames on the central level most times.
