This current Nigeria Flood is something we have not experienced before this is extremely terrible the amount I've lost properties and business increases daily as the flood damage areas near Rivers, And water environment.

I'm currently in Asaba, Delta State Nigeria. Asaba being state capital of delta State is one-sided covered with river niger bridge which is linked from anambra state, onitsha.

I traveled last month only for me to come back this month And all my friends living close to the mini river close to the river Niger already packed out the flood chase them away damaging their business and prosperity. Though when the mini river is kinda far from the houses but when the flood came it was extremely terrible and it merge with River Niger with the force it covered the bushes around and push in to the local areas and building towards the mini forest.

  **The First House I Visited**

This is the first house I visited and I must confess is really terrible I checked around the house no one is currently staying there they are packed out because of how bad the flood is. The compound is surrounded by water and I look into the water I could even see those little fingers growing into a fish inside the mini water in the compound.

The next compound I visited the flood there was massive and I was not able to enter into the compound.

Here there is no way to go into the compound the only means of transportation here is through boat I had to enter the boat to cross over and took some pictures of the flooded environment.

Now This is the only means of transportation here. I was able to review these two compounds and I will be going in details in my next review.
I just hope everything get better so soon so those that left their homes and businesses because of the flood can come back soon and continue their normal life.

I saw some random news in internet that Cameroon is about to release another water according to them they said we should be ready I just hope this is a joke because the damage is extremely terrible and the government is just trying their best which is not enough though.

Thank you for going through my post see you on the next review this coming week stay tuned.

Sort:  

I doubt the government is trying their best, because if they were, this would have been stopped in no time. This is terrible to imagine or even experience, I stay in the eastern part of Nigeria and I just hope we’re safe. I’m sorry for your loss and I hope everything would be better soonest.

The government has not done anything special though just that they sound some warning earlier without even preventing or preparing for them.. They just wish the citizens had their way out already, those that don't have where to run to stayed back till the very damage occurs and now their are push to various primary schools and reserved areas in stadium to stay that's not appropriate .. Though I was affected thank you for caring.

It is terrible what's happening there and the times that are yet to come won't be easy either.

I see you're planning to report about the flood, so I'd like to suggest Rant, Complain, Talk community for this type of topics next time as OCD is for topics that don't fit in any other community and should be used when you don't find a niche community for your post.

We have different communities on Hive and we're encouraging users to post in the right community based on the topic of the post.

Here's a guide I put together to help you learn about how communities work and why you should use them -> Communities Explained - Newbie Guide. I also put together a list of communities, which is not complete, there are much more communities on Hive, but it will help you get started.

Once you posted your post in the right community, you can then cross post it to OCD community. Here's a guide about cross posting.

Please don't delete any post with the purpose of reposting it in another community as that can be considered abuse! Leave this post here, you'll get it right next time.

Thank you very much I just went through the reference links and the community you suggested I think that's the best I will also be using the cross post method thank you very much.
