It is a well known fact in every developing Country . they are besieged with a lot of problems .Paramount among the problems is our culture .this very important because Africa is full of culture and tradition that are gradually disappearing in to the oblivion these days .This is because of the advent of white culture .We should be very proud of our cultural heritage and there fore keep its flag flying .In traditional societies, our culture prevails but in the urban areas,little or nothing about our culture is practiced. As a result of our culture that is dwindling down,We hear the most abominable crimes among the youths in urban cities.Many thing that could not be practiced in rural areas become the order of the day in the cities .Many young men and even women are daily convicted for one crimes or the other .These are a few of the culprits who want to dance to tune of the many million so called sophisticated elite .Many youth from whom much expected under the canopy of being labelled civilized destroy property worth thousands of naira during one from of protest or the other .School children leave school unannounced for streets to do a lot of havoc.Some of them having failed to get employment because of their lack of solid educational back ground , eventually turn out to be delinquents .Another amenity that constitute a problem to Nation is electricity with out electricity,our industries both small and big would not be able function both small and big there will be general low production of goods .Life itself would be boring and the occupants of the so called air conditioned rooms would regret ever being born.This would all so affect our our general welfare because the follow of water itself would cease . this is because the water-pumping engine is dependent on electricity supply. All aspects of social life in terms stereo sets, television, cinema houses, video sets and the like would be packed up by force. Also,devastating is the issue of inadequately water supply. Water is one of the very essentials for the survival of man. one would go on for days without food but, no one lasts twenty four hours without water. for this reason, therefore, one of the areas of life the government should give more priority attention, is the provision of adequate water supply. This could be easily done through pipes and taps which should be in every nook and corner of every street. water is normally used for various daily activities including washing, cooking and most importantly, drinking. Lack of good supply of water could even bring diseases and spread epidemics in the whole country. Due to shortage of good water, cholera, dysentery, guinea worm and other types could break out and as a result, the citizens would not be able to go about their normal duty, we were all bye-witness of the cholera out break that claimed the lives of millions Nigerians some years ago. If people are forced to drink impure water, this normally results. such diseases also increase mortality rates in no time at all. In order to make this country a healthy one of which we should be proud, it is necessary for the government to pay special and immediate attention to social and cultural aspects of the economy pointed out in this article.
