Flooding is becoming more threat to Nigeria. with
the kind of pictures we see from sango ota. Why is Nigeria like this? Is there no single law on town planning.

In more responsible nations, only licensed real estate companies are allowed to build. And the follow the standard.

That is the only way out for Nigeria

For you to tackle flooding, you first have to solve the problem of waste management.

It become difficult to solve the problem of waste disposal when you can't access the houses.

That's what we experience here in Umuahia.

Waste disposing trucks are supposed to move round and pickup wastes from houses, but because there's no good road network, the asked people to take the wastes to designated points. Some people are lazy to get to the point, so the dump it anywhere.

Also Umuahia has not been experiencing flood because it has a good drainage system.

The government should really give attention to town planning, if not one day flood will start destroying us like the days of Noah.

and when the government wants to give attention to town planning, the community leaders decline, or the citizens cry foul of demolishing.

Check Dubai in 1984 and today. Government has to override all these village rubbish if we are going to survive
