Vigilant Report: Meet the communities in Abeokuta where water is the biggest challenge
13 November 2017
by Hameed Folorunsho
Some communities in Abeokuta have rescind their hope in the ability of government to provide for them good pipe borne water. Residents of some communities in Abeokuta now sees the hardship they experience in getting water especially when the rain stops as part of their daily lives. In Abeokuta, it is not new to see people with their buckets and other containers in the morning fighting hard to get water from alternative sources, such as well, stream, privately owned boreholes, and some even pay as high as 50 naira to get a twenty five liters of water.
In the Sabo community of Abeokuta North LG, our reporter found out that at the Sabo Primary Health Center, there exist two boreholes, one is out-rightly damaged while the other is not serving the community. Walking some meters away, there exist another borehole which is totally out of use. As it was noted by one of the community members, it has been over 12 years since the Sabo community had access to pipe borne water from the state water corporation. This has necessitated the need for people living in this community to seek alternative sources of water for their use, part of which is Well, Rain, Stream and privately owned boreholes. People buy a 25 litres from private boreholes at twenty naira to fifty naira

However, how could we communicate?
Have you ever thought about publishing an e-book or guest authoring on other websites?
I have a blog centered on the same topics you discuss and
would really like to have you share some stories/information.
I know my viewers would value your work. If you’re even remotely interested, feel
free to shoot me an e-mail.
Today, I went to the beach front with my children.
I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4
year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the
shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to tell someone!
I think that what you said made a bunch of sense. But, consider this, suppose you typed a catchier post title?
I ain’t saying your content isn’t good., however suppose you added a post title
to possibly grab a person’s attention? I mean Vigilant Report: See what people in Abeokuta go through
to get water – YMonitor is a little vanilla.
You ought to look at Yahoo’s home page and watch how they create post headlines to
grab people interested. You might try adding a video or
a picture or two to get readers interested about
everything’ve written. Just my opinion, it would bring
your blog a little livelier.
What’s up colleagues, how is all, and what you desire to say on the topic of
this post, in my view its actually amazing for me.
