The Harmattan season has come and gone and it was great, now the heat
is here and Nigerians aren’t finding it funny. After the heat comes the
rains. The feeling during raining season for Nigerians is more like
mixed feelings. From messy environments owing to bad roads and bad
drainage systems to getting stuck in traffic on a raining week day, most
Nigerians have many reasons to wish the rains away.
INFORMATION NIGERIA has put together some other reasons why many Nigerians dread raining season…
Malaria: The Nigerian environment encourages
mosquitos to breed. This is all thanks to stagnant waters in gutters or
drains. These get even more common during raining season. The aftermath
of a prevalence of mosquito is malaria which you get after being bitten
by mosquito.
Markets: Sellers usually record lesser sales because
their potential customers couldn’t make it to the market because of
rain. This means sellers find it a whole lot more difficult to meet
their financial obligations.
Flood: During raining seasons, rivers over flow
their banks and the result of that is flood. People who leave in
riverine areas are always apprehensive, when the rains are about to
come.
Drying clothes: This may sound like a trivial matter
but anyone who has ever dried their clothes for a whole week wouldn’t
think it. It takes a whole lot longer for clothes to dry during raining
season because the weather is always cool and almost never hot.
Event: People getting married or having any other
ceremony during raining season commission men of God to pray against
rain on their selected date. These especially apply to the lot who
cannot afford event centres and have to resort to open fields.
