Viewers Corner’s correspondent who visited Enugu state (Nigeria) gathered information that some miracle seeking individuals were seen bathing and drinking water from a dirty and smelling lake at Nachi community in Udi Local Government Area of Enugu state in Nigeria which they believed can make them rich and also cure all sorts of sicknesses. This is very surprising and unbelievable at this present time to see that in a country like Nigeria, some people are still thinking and believing on these sorts of things. No matter what any individual thinks or believes regarding this issue, we (Viewers Corner) are looking at it from the medical/health point of view, we also believe that such lake can only create problems for whoever that is bathing or drinking water from that source because they may be lots of dangerous bacteria that can cause real health problems which anyone can easily contact as he or she baths or drink from that lake. Therefore, we (Viewers Corner) are calling on the Nigerian authorities to kindly close that lake if they have not done so because the long run effect of anyone drinking or bathing in such lake may be infected with different kinds of dangerous diseases and if it happens to be a contagious one then it would spread among the citizens of the country which we pray does not happen.
Government should not keep silent and allow people to use such smelling and dirty lake, please more educational/health awareness campaign should be introduced in Nigeria which we are advising the authorities to carry out using all the social media outfits in Nigeria so that the citizens of the country (Nigeria) would know that bathing or drinking water from such lake or any other miracle lake as they claimed is dangerous to one’s health and can lead to death. This is just an appeal from Viewers Corner and we would always give advice when it is necessary because health is wealth.
