    The coffee color reminds me of a high concentration of iron in the water. A extreme example of it is Taylor Glacier which looks like blood pouring over the snow into the ocean. The clear spring may be filtered through the soil and comes out clean or there is a clean natural spring underground that produces the clear drinking water.

    • @ChristaFree
      @ChristaFree Před rokem

      I think that's exactly what it is. Natural filters should take care of enough water for the community.
      What's the order? Sand, dirt, then charcoal? That's what I would do, then I'd put a little water tower at my house, or a big one in the middle of town connected to all the houses, because forget having to go get water every day. So much time and energy has to be wasted with simply getting water every day.

    That colour means the river has a high concentration metal in it. That problem can be solve easily by physic . Like this: the metal is heavier than water ,then what u need is filled a container with the water and wait for 3,4,or five hours. The iron (metal) will go down d bottom of the container.

    We see this situation in several places in the Niger Delta. Even deep boreholes have concentrations of ferrous oxide, which has a reddish coffee colour. As for the changing size of the rivers, it's because they are tidal. Most rivers in the Niger Delta are tidal, hence they fill up from the ocean and empty into it, about twice a day.

    I can say that from the source of that river there is evolving of metals underground and this is an advantage to the people because in geography metals are the most producing income materials especially in Africa so the people should make use of those metals underground and sell them to make money .In KENYA,,in a place called LAKE TURKANA people where complaining that petroleum drilling companies in a near town called GILGIL where depositing waste materials and washing their drilling machines in the lake that's why the marine animals where dying and the lake water tasted petroleum ONLY TO FIND THAT near the lake underground there is an occurrence of minerals producing petroleum and other useful materials

    They could build water filters from natural products that the streams could be diverted to, in part, to provide the community clean drinking water and water that won't stain their clothes.
    There's a lot of iron in that water. I wonder what the source of the iron is? Must be a huge deposit to color all the water. I think I saw some copper when you put the camera under water too.
    I'd speculate they're sitting on a very rich mineral deposit of different minerals but a butt load of iron.

    There are some places where strangers are not allowed to inter, and if you a female stranger, you are not allowed to work alone, and as a female you can enter every place, I remember when my female friend break one of there rule where I was there, seriously we have to pay, since then I told myself not to go there again.
    Another thing about this people again is, they live well more than any other community, if they are not first, but they are among the richest community in AKWA IBOM STATE,
    There is no community that has love like this community, they love themself so much,

    No offense intended, but this video raises questions that it should've answered. The rivers rise and fall is no mystery. Just the result of high and low tides of the sea.

So would interviews with the locals on how their lives are impacted by this.

I would suggest finding out the source, like where the elements of pollution come from, whether there is some technology to sieve through the water content, etc. I can't believe there is an abundance of water that cannot be made useful. I believe they come from the tree leaves, the soil even the tree roots themselves. Some biologists/chemists need to study the environment. Go to the source of the water flow, and see where the issue began, I am sure the river started from a particular source like the river Niger, Atlantic ocean, etc, then where exactly is the starting point of the problem?

      @@mustafaakcay202 Okay in the video he made it clear that the water can fill up in hours and currently dry up. I understand that it's normal, there's a lot of ocean dried up in China right now. But it's nothing supernatural.
      Secondly, the water can be useful, if the water is dirty, it depends on the soil itself, probably polluted. The simple thing that can be done is using a" filter" to make the water super clean. Then that doesn't make it as useless as we thought.
      Thirdly, the tap water he stated that the church built that become unstoppable rushing out can be regulated where people can open and close the water. (Or the water is also supernatural?) Or its an unimaginable plumber that did the work?
      Finally, I enjoyed the research and the hard work the researcher put in the video together here on CZcams and I have also subscribed I love adventure. But some stuff ain't supernatural as we thought.

      @@ican6401 This video was never made to be supernatural
      In the video I said I'll survive the rest of the day in this community meaning (I'll highlight how hard it is to get clean water in this community) nothing in this video was said to be supernatural
