Enugu Healing River Is A Disaster Waiting To Happen – Experts

 
In any case, medical experts are unanimous in their opinion that epidemics looms in the country if urgent measures were not taken.

In a chat with DailyPost, a medical expert, Dr. Taiwo Fasoranti called on the Enugu State Ministry of Health to intervene before dooms day comes.

“I don’t know what you mean by Miracle Water, although as a Christian, I will not say people should not get miracle from wherever they want.

“However, from the health perspective, what is happening in Nachi is not the right thing to do. People take their bath in the water; people defecate there, people urinate there, all kinds of sicknesses are brought into that water, yet people fetch and drink the same water. I can tell you that the Nachi Water is a ground work for disaster waiting to happen.

“I know that in this environment we have the community health workers, they have the ministry of health; they should take a look at that water; it is not hygienic at all; it is not a good thing to do; it is a stagnant water; it does not flow and in there, you come with your won illness, put it there, somebody else comes, puts his own there. It is really what we call disaster waiting to happen, and when the health implications will come, they may have forgotten their encounter with that dirty water”, Dr. Fasoranti warned.

Also from the Christian perspective, clerics have continued to call for caution, noting that it could be a way of operation by some River goddess.

An evangelist, Ogechukwu Uzuagu described it as part of the signs of end time, as Jesus had warned of a time when people will be running from one place to the other in search of miracles.
