I live in a small village in Kwara State; you can call it a developing area because a small number of people reside there. Some factors seem discouraging because if you are looking for a stress-free transportation scheme, my environment isn't a good choice, but aside from that, we have a good 24-hour power supply, and I guess that is the most important factor to someone like me who spends roughly 21 hours online.

The bad habit people exhibit in my environment is building a house without a proper drainage system. I would have called it ignorance, but to my disappointment, many of the residents are educated; they are quite aware of the importance of drainage, yet they don't give proper attention to it. This lack of proper drainage causes flooding during the rainy season and also causes damage to the untarred roads.

During the rainy season, the water dug up the ground and made the water stagnant, which is ruining the transportation routes in my environment. The two streets in my environment didn't have good roads; it's very difficult to get a car across to the main road just because the road is bad. While driving, you have to be extra careful not to damage your car.

It has become so bad that even walking freely during the rainy season seems impossible as you will be walking into water all around.

The reason why it is deteriorating is because people think it is the government's responsibility to provide everything we need, which is not possible. We need to take responsibility for ourselves as residents of an environment. Unless we do this, it will be difficult to live in a stress-free environment.
Thanks for your time.
