Are you ready for the rainy season?

For many Nigerians, the rainy season is both a blessing and a challenge.

On the positive side, the rainwater helps to replenish soil nutrients and water reserves, which is essential for all agricultural activities. The rains also often bring much-needed respite from the hot, dry conditions that precede the rainy season, thus making daily life more comfortable. And, crucially, the rainwater is an important source of water for drinking, cooking and all other household needs, particularly for those living in rural areas where access to water may be limited.

On the flipside however, the rainy season brings its challenges with flooding, diseases such as malaria, and other waterborne illnesses.

So, while the rainy season brings much-needed rain for agriculture and cooling, it also poses challenges that need to be managed, and you need to be ready for it.
