instead of u to blame the parents.u put the blame on government.

Blame the parents for not tying the child with rope

The problem with some you irredeemable voluntary slaves is that you have been made to believe that you only deserve bare minimum and your mediocre govt is not responsible for anything.

What a pity.

illiteracy is a disease.with common sense,u should know that Safety comes first.Wells are alternative source of water Incase the normal pipe-borne water develop issues.u don't just conclude that government did not supply water to the area.where I grew up,we operate the two source of water.And my parents never allowed me get close to the wells.what u r supposed to do for urself,u don't wait for someone to do it for u.try and get some safety training Mr.

a reasonable parent will never send their children to fetch water from the wells.

Nehyooh:
So pathetic.
But seven years of age fetching water from the well, looks odd

Too odd. You can imagine the torture the little lad would have been subjected to? A little boy already doing adult chores. He should go and rest. May his soul rest in peace

Jeezuzpick:


They do have raised walls round them.

Kids like to stand on these walls as they fetch water.

Meaning they either raise the walls further or stop kids from going there.
Else another kid will soon drown again.

Can someone explain what the rope is doing on his damn neck?

Do people still use well

When I was living in such a setting (compound with well) I used to pursue kids coming to fetch water.

Some older kids will stand on the raised wall and be fetching, I will shout on them to get down.

All the while doing this and being a parent myself, i severally found myself wondering, but these ones have parents, naa! In fact, it's the parents that sent them to go fetch water!

It's just beyond me.

Ok. Height of negligence on the part of those parents.

Exactly.

I had to find a circumspect way to state it, because, if I wrote such a terse summary, I can come across as insensitive, seeing that the parents just lost a child, but.....it is what it is.

Slurity:
You can even blame the government for failing to impregnate your wife.

that's your problem. If there's accessible water everywhere will that happen to the your boy. And you that the government impregnated your wife what have been the baby achievement.

They suppose throw the boy mother into the well follow the boy because the woman na very stupid person.

Amen o

If the pipe borne water is constantly flowing, such a promising young boy would not die untimely.

GanagiBitrus:
Too bad.
The well most likely had no protective ring around it.

Why will a 7 year old draw water from a well?

Learn to point fingers if you want to make it in life. Check the lifes of whoever deprive joy in blaming the government for everything, they will continue to struggle. Government has faults in many areas yes, but when you make it a culture to always think of who to blame except the victim then you got it wrong. Grow up.

Klington:
The innocent lad lost his precious life out of sheer negligence.

Rip.

A country that no local govt can boast of running tap water after 64yrs.

But some APC Yoruba ronu online nitwits will be quick to gaslight you onto thinking that everything is working fine in Nigeria.

So pathetic..

Easybet1:
My state, Kwara state is too local. Imagine still fetching water from the well in 2023 😡😡😡


Rip

Nothing wrong with that..
The problem is that they didn't raise the well high enough.
We grew up in ajegunle fetching water from the well n having to use apoti or bucket to increase our height

That make it sound dangerous using apoti to increase your height. I schooled in Ilorin and I know how tough it was to get water mostly expecially during dry season.
