Roving Informant brings to the public, from time to time, commendable developmental projects embarked upon by the government towards enhancing the lives of its people. Likewise, we bring to the fore, situations that needs to be redressed in order to avert inevitable disaster.
Operation "Clean out the drainage around our cities" is our campaign against the dilapidated state of the drainage system, as seen in these pictures from, around Lagos, Nigeria.
Using this medium, we add our voice to this campaign, with the intention to reach out to stake holders at all levels of governance across the country.
The gutters are there alright, but they are either blocked by weed or debris.
Evidently, the problem is not the absence of drainage systems across the states, but our lack of maintenance culture and poor hygiene.
What do we really utilize the sanitation hours every Thursday between the hours of 7 - 10am in market places in Lagos state, and every first, second or last Saturdays of the month on????
There is therefore the urgent need to check flood and diseases by maintaining good hygiene. Not taking good care of what we have equals to 'abuse' of that very thing.
