Chai! My people, Lagos people don dey waka again o! Na Mrs. Oluwabukola Adeyemo, dem Executive Secretary of Water Resources wey carry serious message come meet residents.

She yarn yesterday for Epe Local Government Secretariat, dey warn everybody say make dem no drink untreated water. She sabi say water no be just water; na life, but if e no clean, e fit turn to silent killer wey go serve cholera, typhoid fever, and diarrhoea on top your plate. Wetin you go tell your mama when dem carry comot your belle because of dirty water? Abeg, no be small matter o.

Oluwabukola no leave any stone unturned as she dey talk say Lagos dey surrounded by water, but e no mean say all of dem fit enter mouth jare. Na because of the plenty salt, heavy metals, and other bad minerals wey dey enter the water, proper treatment dey necessary. You go see some residents dey rely on boreholes and shallow wells as their main water source, and some of dem dey drill am close to septic tanks! God abeg, no be joke matter wey dis one be o.

As with all these wahala wey dey happen, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu don show say him dey work on am by partnering with the Ministry of the Environment and Water Resources. Dem don invest plenty money to make sure say pipeline water dey reach every corner for Lagos. One of their recent achievements na Akilo Water Works for Ogba wey fit produce one million gallons of water everyday! Chai, wetin no go make person dance for this news?

For the Epe axis, dem dey plan to upgrade some water facilities wey dey fit supply up to five million gallons a day. That na serious level wey everybody go enjoy clean water and no go dey fear any wahala.

And no be only water matter dey disturb Lagos for the moment. My guy Stephen Ogundipe wey be spokesperson for the Lagos State House of Assembly don also drop warning about fuel wahala wey people dey cause. E dey vex say people dey scoop fuel from tanker wey don fall for Tincan Liverpool Bridge. Wetin dey worry dem wey no fit hold body and wait for dem to rescue dem? E go call bad market.

When you sabi say fuel na highly flammable thing, why you go put your life for danger just to carry small fuel? Na serious talk. Ogundipe don advise community leaders and unions say make dem dey inform people on top these fuel spillage wahala and how e fit lead to serious fire outbreak. Na this kind early warning wey go save lives.

E remind people say fuel scooping no be just dangerous; e dey illegal too! If they catch you, na serious gbege you go collect. Ogundipe don tell make everybody alert authorities once dem see any fuel spill, say safety first, na so we go fit build better Lagos wey dey safe for everybody.

So my people, make we shine our eyes and no put ourselves for problem. Life no get duplicate, e no dey after all these small money wey we dey rush for. Make we drink clean water and avoid any wahala wey no go make our belle dey sweet!
