Our government really need to do something about this issue of lack of water because if it continues like this it will lead to something else, water is a free gift and people should have access to the best of it which is clean water.
What do you expect the government to do for you? Get a borehole and dig pure water in every houses? Please tell me.
I think is is right time we stop calling the government for everything, and things that we can provide for ourselves. Without the government, many private individuals can provide clean water for people who dont have access to it. It doesn't cost so much that a private individual cannot afford to do it. At the same time, personally we should dig a bore hole, and get clean water for ourselves, it wont kill us if we do it and stop waiting for the government. Its our health that at risk not theirs.
Agbamoni you are from Nigeria so I believe you know a state called bayelsa in Nigeria and the reason you are saying that is not everything the government should provide for us is because you have not been to places like this, in bayelsa even if you dig a borehole the water won't be clean because of the oil spillage that is happening in bayelsa always there water is already contaminated and to get a clean and manageable water you can at least bath you will spend huge amount of money because you will have to dig very dipper and you will be using 3 to 4 tank, that is how it works in bayelsa, in the place I was in bayelsa it was government that built the borehole and we use 3 tank they pour sand in the first and second tank to help fitter the oil in that water, now when we are pumping the water it goes to the first one from the first one to the second one and from the second one to the third one being the last.
What am I trying to say without the help of government in bayelsa in providing clean water the people can't have a clean water because it's too expensive.
