Sad story. A N.aked live wire on the ground? What does our nepa even do?

OK

Come on PARENTS!!!! A live wire falls on the floor and NEPA is called, and in the mean time, you FORBID your kids to go close to that area.

Rip to the kid, the little boy has just died because of the poor governance of another man.

We should always speak out evil is done to other people because it might come back to hunt us.

How is this poor governance?! No car was available to fix the issue (probably dealing with another emergency), is that so difficult to understand?! Stop comparing Africa to the west where such issues are dealt with on the spot.

Its not bad governance, it is the same ignorance that you portray in your post that killed that poor boy. Drop the pity blame ... "Oh poor us" and instead educate your damn kids to not play around fallen electrical wires. Or do you also want the gov to raise your damn kids too?!?!
Arrant Nonsense!

But of course, because in your mind there is only ONE emergency per day, so there is ALWAYS a car available for YOUR emergency, right?

Typical African man reasoning abstractly...I wasn't playing "the poor us game" you were.

Why would a live wire fall and be left there? The scenario was an avoidable environmental hazard Which the government needs to tackle but failed and therefore needs to take blame for it!!! Government should start taking responsibilities in this country. and by so doing we can all move forward.

Let this kinda thing happen in America and you will see how many people that will sue them and how they will apologize for their shortcomings.

Live wire fall everywhere,especially during heavy windy weather, but the difference is that other places deal with it faster.

But any wise parent would tell their kids not to play around d that fallen wire while waiting for repairs.... So sorry, but let the irresponsible parent take some of the blame too here
