There was a video I watched where I saw a food seller literally pouring sacks of refuse into a gutter during rainfall. Based on the person who recorded the video, it was not her first time doing that. She always waits until it is raining before disposing of her refuse.
We often complain about blocked drainage and flooded areas. The same set of people like this woman would come out to lament that the government is not doing anything, but it is not the government disposing of refuse and sewage into the gutters, which ends up blocking the drainage. So, the government is innocent in this, even though they also have a role to play, which is fighting against terrible people like the woman in the video I mentioned above.
That is not all. Traders and buyers also play a big role in drainage blockage. When you buy something on the street and after you finish eating it, you feel the right place to dump the waste is on the street, when it rains, it gets swept off the street into canals and other places. Sometimes, it becomes too much that it blocks the passage where it was discharged into the water channel.
When the water is blocked from flowing freely to its right channel cos of the refuse, it turns into a flood that destroys properties both outside and inside the home. Then, we are quick to put the blame on the government when it is our own doing.
Back to the Hive Learners prompt, the law should apply equally to everyone, regardless of whether the offender is an individual or a company. A company is supposed to face serious charges for polluting or littering the environment because its waste is even more and can damage the health of thousands of citizens. The government should enforce the law justly and not be biased when passing punishment to offenders.
A lot of the problems we are facing in this country are caused by citizens, either as individuals, groups, or organizations. It is people that are killing people. And those blaming the government are not entirely wrong.
The government is in charge of our welfare. They should be the ones to put law enforcers in place so that citizens will stop misbehaving and doing things that cause damage to other people's health. If the government keeps taking things lightly, people will keep doing it. But once severe punishment is put in place and one or a few people are punished, others will learn from it, comport themselves, and stop doing terrible things.
The world and the people is dying, and it is terrible people that caused this, they don't care about others health as long as they are benefiting from it...
