Through this contest of neighborhood watch, I would like to share what is happening in my community so that viewers can understand what's going on. So before I proceed, I would like to invite @olixwrite, @tanwa, and @abisolami to participate in this contest.

That day, after coming out from the just-concluded Juma'at prayer, my elder brother and I witnessed this scenario because a mini water tank lorry fell down on the road. As a result, one of the metal parts removed from each other when the motor was in motion, and the driver told me he saw that thing with his own eyes.

We also thank God for saving his life because no one died at the scene, and the tank was not fully loaded with water, which is why the accident was not worse than this. I asked the driver what the next step was, and he said he would look for people to help him lift the lorry. After that, we saw that people had already helped him do that. He called a mechanic to help repair the damage so that it could move again.

Another thing that I also witnessed in the community is the collapsed of the small bridge made with wood, so that people can make uses of it on a daily basis. This occur as a result of heavy flood that pass through it, since that day it has not been repair up to this moment. Although there are other route we can pass through but it's not advisable for children and older people. Even young people often find it difficult due to the stress they would pass through in order to climb the small hill that are also present around the place.

Conclusion

The driver with this mini truck must take caution and should not over speed next time because over speed sometime can lead to fatal accident, and similarly this bridge must be quickly repair by the members of the community because government cannot do everything for us and it would be better to use concrete cement in order for the bridge to last longer.
