RE: Hive-Naija Weekend Engagement #44 - "FLOODING IN NIGERIA"

Truth be told the government are supposed to ensure that lives and properties of it's citizens are secured. But we all are aware how wickedness, greediness and selfishness has encroached into our government today. This so disheartening, I am sure that someone somewhere in the government is happy over that disaster that struck those affected area.

For long I have shifted my hope from the government. Those people there are humans, some with wicked motives. The earlier we forget about them and turn to God for help the better. I am saying this with bitterness in heart, seeing how lives and properties were wasted. If we have responsible government , things like this should not be happening. what has happened has happened already but it should serve as a lesson to us all. We shouldn't wait for the government before we do what is right. There are many little things we over look and push the responsibility to the government that has affected us a lot. Whatever is within our power to do, let us do it and forget this government of a thing. If we live in riverine areas we should not wait for anyone to coerced us to keep the drainages clean. If it is something very expensive , we can do community contribution to have that met. That issue of banana island, if that area gets flooded I won't blame the government but the people living there. With all the money they have, they still want the government check the environment for them?

If we have a good government fine, the case is different but we know how our country is. This time around it is flood we don't know what might happen next, and where. Don't feel as if this affected a far place and it wouldn't come to you. Let us be vigilant and be good citizens, I am not in anyway supporting the government, all I am trying to say is that, it is high time we arise and secure ourselves. The government is weak and we all know it, they can't take care of us anymore.

To all those that are injured and lost their prosperities may the lord strengthen them and open doors for them to . May the souls of those that passed away rest in peace. Let's never give up, when there is life, there is always hope.
