very few men are victims of domestic violence. Women always bear the brunt of a man's anger


No matter what a woman says or does, a man should never hit her, a man is physically stronger than a woman so hitting her will inflict serious physical damage, whereas a woman may not cause any real harm to a man.

Op the husband in your write Up should have quietly left the compound and go relax somewhere until he was sure his wife had calmed down. when a woman is angry she throws all reason and caution to the wind, it therefore falls on the man to be understanding and reasonable


Engaging in a fisticuffs with a woman is wrong and should be condemned.

I've tried to understand this issue in Asaba and I think there are several problems, and not all of it is government's fault:

1. The primary issue is that Asaba is down hill, relative to everywhere else in the region. All of the rain - from Ogwashi, Igbusa, Isele-Azagba, Okpanam - eventually runs down towards the Niger River and goes through Asaba on its way, overwhelming any drainage designed to handle only that city's rainfall.

2. There is a lot of uncovered, unprotected land in and around Asaba. A lot of the roads are also unpaved, or heavily damaged, which exposes the soil to runoff. This means a lot of erosion from uphill ends up clogging Asaba drains. We need to pave more, plant grass and build retaining walls that prevent all that sand from flowing down. Even on the Asaba-Benin-Lagos expressway, you'll see lots of clay soil coming down into the highway in several places.

3. Residents think it's a good idea to throw their garbage into the flowing water which further clogs up the drainage

4. Since the Niger river rises significantly during the rainy season, the water table rises with it, slowing or even preventing drainage down hill.

5. As we learned in primary school, clay is almost impervious to water, which means unlike many places, the water doesn't drain into the ground as quickly; couple this with the already full water-table, and you have standing water for days.

These are all surmountable - and not unique to Asaba - but I just wanted to provide a little more insight that goes beyond abusing government. In my opinion government needs to understand the unique conditions of rain/water table/soil type in Delta, and hire bright people who can solve it.
