kelvincoll: Forsaken by the Govt? undecided
To think this barely an 8-10hrs rainfall, imagine if it is 7days rain.

Thanks for the update from your area- Ijesha- with pictures to make the story real.
I guess there is no LGA councillor & chairman to ensure the gutters are cleared REGULARLY such that rain water flows freely at times like this

Let's hope others who are also affected will post pictures from their areas.

For those who need to be reminded:

CONSTITUTION OF THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA
1999


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Schedules

Fourth Schedule

Functions of a Local Government Council

1. The main functions of a local government council are as follows:

(f) construction and maintenance of roads, streets, street lightings, drains and other public highways, parks, gardens, open spaces, or such public facilities as may be prescribed from time to time by the House of Assembly of a State;

http://www.waado.org/nigerdelta/ConstitutionalMatters/1999Constitution/FourthSchedule.html

Doing this PROPERLY & REGULARLY will create employment by the LGAs for

- cleaners,
- supervisors,
- managers
- etc

and make the area clean for MORE business and internal revenue generation (IGR) for the LGA through rates, levies, fines, taxes etc.

Are you only talking about Ijesha, at least your chairman is trying. Come to Aguda/Coker you will weep for Lagos. Every street is in dire state.

It is not funny o!!!My neighbour cancelled work for the day & so did his wife. This rain ought to understand that not everyone is married nah!!! My room being directly above the room of this young couple, you guys can only imagine the 'ringing tone' I have had to endure all day in this cold.

Anyways I don't blame the rain. I blame ASUU, cos if not the strike, I would have either been in a lecture now, a practical class or who knows, even listening to the ringing tone produced & directed by me.
