This is tragic.

We are buffeted on every side, Hunger, epidemics, cult killings, bokoharam, flooding and a missing President.

Is there any hope in sight?

Will it get worse before it gets better?

The rate at which we experience flood this year is scary!


People need to stop dumping refuse into canals, which blocks free flow of drainages!

Ekun omi indeed!

Though, God may be angry with Nigerians but he has vowed not to destroy us with flood again, our carelessness and the poor maintenance culture we have in this country is what is causing all these. So many Nigerians are fond of blocking drainages with refuse!

Hope NEMA is prepared to deal with this crisis unfolding. While the embittered ones celebrate these loses we pray for the best.

Our hygiene is very very poor. Go to parts of Lagos, people throw refuse in drainages,in most part of Lagos refuse collectors have stopped working. How do you explain this.
Thank God rainbow, a sign that God is still mindful.

Not only in Lagos, my brother! It happens in almost every part of the country! Nigerians are special breed of people, they're the ones that will cause problems and still be complaining of the problems caused by them!

It's good as we're learning the hard way, maybe, just maybe, that will trigger positive changes in the perpetrators!

Our Safety & Heath orientation very backward.Even among the so called educated folks. May God help all of us.

Isn't it strange but sad how healthy people just get killed by floods just like that.

While terminally sick Buhari whose death everyone is expecting is still kicking.
Re: 20 Persons Killed In Suleja Flood by jchioma: 9:08pm On Jul 09, 2017
What? 20 souls gone just like that? I hope the emergency response service will rise up to their responsibility before more lives are destroyed.

Didn't they see the flood coming to run to safety?
Re: 20 Persons Killed In Suleja Flood by Goahead(m): 9:09pm On Jul 09, 2017
The gods are definitely angry... Lagos is now turning into one giant Makoko slum. North, that have never been proned to heavy rainfalls is now the epicenter of the ravaging rage of the gods.

Rest in peace to the dead and to the limp-dick sucker in London mortuary.

Re: 20 Persons Killed In Suleja Flood by Jeezuzpick(m): 9:09pm On Jul 09, 2017
Na waa o.

So much water in a hilly town. Possibly brought about by a total lack of or blocked drainage channels.
Re: 20 Persons Killed In Suleja Flood by Nobody: 9:10pm On Jul 09, 2017

Re: 20 Persons Killed In Suleja Flood by Nobody: 9:10pm On Jul 09, 2017
This years rain is massive! We are having our fair share here in Lagos. I just hope they are found alive.

Op there's a difference between the english words "missing" and "killed" undecided

I refuse to adhere to the bolded, to say that's the reason for the heavy flood.

I think it is bad drainage plan from beginning, or that area is very close to a river.
