How do you respect water?


No matter how good you're as a swimmer,never swim without a life guard in sight.Don't get carried away by the calmness and ambience of water.Water is a deadly foe.

Ok. Having a lifeguard on standby is an added safety feature, though many good swimmers will find it practically impossible to employ a lifeguard in their private home swimming pools, to be on standby when they are swimming.

The calmness and tranquility of a river is just a facade, the real demons are lurking beneath it's surface, even tho I'm a good swimmer, I no dey ever tempt my village people for river.
People don't know this, I was born in a riverine area and I laughed at people saying "If you don't know how to swim, avoid water"

Whether you know how to swim or not, kindly avoid water.

You can't predict water, you don't know the point of current. The top can appear calm, but there's a full force of current blowing below.
Once you get caught up, nothing can save you.

Swimming is 10x energy consuming and exhausting than running.
The energy you burned while running for an hour, is what you burn when swimming for just 45s.

No matter how peaceful or serene any water body may appear, including a swimming pool, never take the risk of swimming except you are a confirmed swimmer.

RIP to the dead.

Water has allure.


If the victim fall, it swallows them alive.



Some water cannot be swam even if you can swim, because current too strong, both surface level and undercurrent.



Moral of the story is respect yourself and respect water by leaving it alone, unless u are fish.



p.s. some river have crocodile, python big fish

If you are not an Ogun State indigene, do not swim in the Ogun River or any of it's tributaries for any reason.

Yes, we have to open locked gates to get access to the pool side
