Nigeria’s Flood Management Challenges: A Call to Action
Our Country Nigeria is facing a lot of problems as we speak. A few days ago, one of my episodes in the writing challenge talks about Waste generation and how Rural and Urban migration is one of the contribution factors. I also strengthen the consequences of how people in our society mismanage waste and what is likely to occur thereafter. I tried to admonish the government to set up thorough enforcement through the Environmental Health Practitioner and how Health Education is also important. It is also worthwhile to ensure that all standards are in place for good sanitation and to prevent further environmental hazards.
All these being said, after my navigation towards the detriments of this illlact and ill-behavior of the people and the government finds no fault in it or behaves nonchalantly, then consequences like such, which occur in borno that submerge an entire city will persist if further action are not taken.It is worthwhile that, proper drainage should be provided that will contain the volume of water that is allocated to it.
This will prevent flooding and other potential flooding. Flooding should not be an environmental problem nowadays. We should be prepared for flooding and this should not be associated as a result of man's activity or refusal to ensure all procedures are met.
I really hope to draft more but there is no time.
