OUR SOCIAL ISSUES...

IT IS NOT TOO LATE......... THE MOMENT I SAW THE CLAUDS FORMING THIS MORNING, I BEGUN ASKING MYSELF IF WE ARE READY AS A NATION FOR THIS YEAR'S RAINS? I THEN BEGUN THINKING OF WHAT WE HAVE DONE AS A NATION TO PREVENT THE FLOODS THIS YEAR IN CASE WE HAVE SIMILAR RAIN AS WE HAD LAST YEAR. UNFORTUNATELY, WE HAVE DONE NOTHING MEANINGFUL APART FROM OUR USUAL TALKING TO PREVENT THE FLOODS. THEN I ASK, IS THIS HOW BAD WE CAN BE AS A PEOPLE? WHY SHOULD WE ALWAYS BE FACED BY THESAME PROBLEM EVERY YEAR AND YET DO NOTHING THAN SHARE RELIEVE ITEAMS AFTER PEOPLE HAVE BEEN TAKEN AND PROPERTIES HAS BEEN DISTROYED BY FLOOD. WE ALL ARE AWARE OF THE SOLUTION BUT OUR PROBLEM IS, THE CITY AUTHORITIES DONT HAVE THE POLITICAL WILL TO DEMOLISH "THAT BUILDING" ON THE WATER WAY JUST BECAUSE OF THE FEAR OF LOOSING POWER OR FOR THE FEAR OF BEING VOTE OUT. BILL COSBY ONCE SAID"I DONT KNOW THE KEY TO SUCCESS, BUT THE KEY TO FAILURE IS TRYING TO PLEASE EVERYBODY. IT IS NEVER TOO LATE, WE CAN STIILL ACT NOW, LETS ACT NOW TO SAVE THE LIVES AND PROPERTIES THAT WOULD BE LOST IF THE RAINS SETS IN. INFACT, WE ARE MADE AWARE THAT THIS YEAR, THE RAINS ARE GOING TO BE MORE SERIOUS THAN IT WAS LAST YEAR. NB: IF YOU AREA LIVING IN A FLOOD PRONE ARE, ADVICE YOURSELF AND RELOCATE BEFORE THE HEAVY RAINS SETS IN.. A STICH IN TIME,.............
