I've missed Hive engagement I have to admit and I have been away for too long which is beyond my control. I am glad I am seeing this now and on time and before busy schedule kicks in, let me just dive right into it.

I have to start up top and say that the government should be held liable for this flooding. It's not rocket science that we need good, proper and effective drainage system. This is not just about places but all across because there was a time I saw and read the news of flooding at Banana Island. As fanciful and expensive that area is, you would feel that side should have the best of everything but no. It should be a standard in every area so much that everyone can have their lives and properties safe.

Another thing I would like to raise is that, it is a collective responsibility. I don't know how people do it that they drop things in drainage. We need to understand that it's a collective responsibility and we shouldn't say it's not our business because whether we like it or not, it might end up affecting us or someone close to us. We need to keep our drainage free. There is a reason why sanitation is being enforced every last Saturday of the month but even the government has eased up on it and the citizens are not playing their parts either. If we don't do our part how then do we expect the government who are not interested in doing anything before to do theirs?

The best we can do it, do our part, hold the government responsible to do theirs and help those who have been affected with the help they need per time. We also need to create awareness on proper drainage because the truth is not everyone knows the repercussion of dumping things anywhere on the road.
