For many Nigerians, the seasonal rains no longer signal renewal but dread. Annual flooding has become a devastating reality, displacing communities, destroying livelihoods, damaging critical infrastructure, and claiming lives. The causes are complex—a combination of intense rainfall, inadequate drainage, uncontrolled urbanization, and the effects of climate change. While a holistic solution requires multi-sectoral collaboration, civil engineers are on the front lines, armed with the expertise and tools to lead the charge. At Seftop Engineering Limited, we believe that by moving from reactive measures to proactive, technology-driven strategies, we can build a more resilient Nigeria.
