But then, it's kinda ironical as a nation to become [much] more serious in solving and/or finding solution(s) to the poor working conditions in this country [only] when a public figure dies.
The pretence here is to witness apparent seriousness from people 'bolting away' in subsequent days after moments of 'chastising' the appropriate quarters and the false hopes strategically received from [them] to 'soothe our headache', regardless of the distress which emanates from problems at hand, with issues becoming quiet and and less relevant at the end of the day.
[Lemme use trending topics such as the inadequacy and unworkability of Ambulances, and other relevant topics like the poor drainages and roads as a case study.]
Let's say, an [unpopular] public figure should die over this headache, will there be a similar outcry and speed to solving such problems? Certainly No! [This is where the prominence theory sets in here.]
Come on! It is ironic, isn't it?
As a wake up call, Heads, in charge of our various Institutions shouldn't wait for a national tragic to 'pop its head' before we see likeable solutions and improvement on our drainage systems, roads, health facilities, schools, markets centres, sanitation and much more.
It'll be prudent enough to listen to the [cry] of people and fix their problems, than to wait for a tragedy to happen before we sit upright. And before, committees are set to investigate the overwhelming tragic occurrences in this country, we need be mindful that, our poor attitudes, [when changed] could 'arrest' them instantly.

d. Creating a space for your pets like as a dog bed or cat tower.

4. Clean Pets’ Stains Immediately
One of several ways to protect furniture from pet chewing & pet urine is by cleaning pets’ stains as soon as possible.

Make padding of paper towels and place it on the soiled area and stand on it for a few minutes before moving the padding.

6. Close off Certain Rooms
One of the ways to pet proof your furniture is by restricting your pets from entering your living room or where you have valuable furniture.
