Weeks of monsoon rains have been wreaking havoc across East Africa. Tanzania is reporting at least 150 dead from floods and landslides. The government in Kenya says the extreme weather there has now claimed at least 70 lives since mid-March. Severe flooding has forced thousands from their homes.

I guess i should be more clear some people think am crazy am God the father of Jesus Christ i was reborn on earth on 12/23/1989 at the Panama canal am 25% shashane American Indian and 25% shashane middle eastern Indian i made the earth this new group reported this area was having droughts 2 years ago in 2021 and 2022 show i made some clouds and programed them to bring you water to end the drought they have a max carry capacity of 1 miles of 6 feet of water and program to drop 3 to 6 inch's of water per 1/25 of a mile over time the flood happen due to a result of the government using cloud seeding to force all 1 mile of 6 feet of water from the cloud. in sort the flood would have never happened if the government of Africa never used the cloud seeding on my clouds i programed to help drought affected area's in 2022 i made the's and program them to help all drought affected area's. the people who used the cloud seeding on the clouds are to blame for this flood.

We either experience severe flooding or extreme heat. What a world we live in.

@DemPilafian

According to the UN Food and Agriculture Organization, deforestation in Tanzania causes a loss of 470,000 hectares of forest a year.

Climate Change makes flooding worse, but the root cause of these floods is deforestation.

@sandrasandrabp4dm

Sorry for the people’s who lost their life’ their governments need to do more to help the people’s straggle

@eugeniabarsukova

At least 150 in Tanzania and at least 70 in Kenya is not "dozens", it's hundreds killed.

The poor needs help first world!

Build an expensive train connection and get your feet wet!

@andrewillemse2031

Yet people continue to deny climate change and how it's affecting us and the environment around us, unless we do more to combat climate change these weather events will only get worse and governmenta has a responsibility to not only reduce their carbon emissions, but to adapt their cities to prevent mass death from climate change.

I've spend the last two months in Mwanza, Tanzania doing environmental education projects at schools. That includes forming school clubs that build up tree nurseries and plant trees on school grounds. The shift in weather patterns here is astounding. We are already about one month late with the next generation of trees because, believe it or not, there was just too much rain this April to start a new batch.

cloud seeding is a deadly tool it forces all the rain to leave a cloud in 1 go which make flooding.
if used the wrong way it can be used as a weapon of war to kill people cloud seeding is a deadly tool in the wrong hands it can be used as a weapon of war.
Now I set up rain to fall on all places where there are droughts that i could fine 2 years ago i setup changes to the weather on earth for all the's places to get 3 to 6 inch's of rain per a storm and the clouds where post to drop 3 to 6 inch's per every 1/25 of a mile should it could not cause flooding.
if some one use's cloud seeding to force the rain out the cloud then it will drop all the rain the cloud is holding enough to flood an area due to its post to stop the drought area's.
if flooding has happened in Africa then some one has used cloud seeding on my storm system to make it flood.
if some one used cloud seeding on one my clouds to help drought areas each cloud has around 6 feet of water in them that could cover 1 mile but they are only post to drop 3 to 6 inch's per 1/ 25 of a mile show it would not flood the ares. if this has happened then the group who did the cloud seeding is responsible for any deaths.
i set this up to run on auto pilot in 2022 to stop all droughts in Africa. and other areas of the world.
dont use's cloud seeding and it wont flood.

@magaretekwin3659

There should always be a plan t to relocate and assist poor people living in poor conditions around the city. Telling them to move to higher grounds during fatal flooding conditions like this is like telling them they're on their own and no one cares. Governments in Africa need to start prioritizing and investing millions to fight poverty, improve services for their citizens, especially the poor, and create effective Emergency Management Agencies to address needs in times of disasters. Otherwise, what's the point of having government and all its pomp and glamour profiling around.

@justwatchingnews.9733

2 years ago they side they needed rain now they dont want rain make up your mines. most of Africa was in a drought and side they wanted rain 2 years ago now you want no rain make up your mines. you can have a drought or rain you cant have both. which due you want.
all i did was alter the weather a bite to stop the drought from happenings.
I can stop it from happening again but you will have droughts again.
you side you needed rain 2 years ago show i gave you what you asked for i changed the settings on some of the earth's weather patterns its been mostly running on auto pilot i can charge it back but if i due Africa will have Droughts again. I charged it a bite show you would not have Droughts any more. it wont flood all the time just for the first few years tell the ground learns how to hold water again.
its only post to drop 3 inch's of rain per each storm in Africa its what i set it up for if its dropping more then it should then some one used cloud seeding . it was only post to drop 3 inch's per 1/25 of a mile.

@uknowamsaying

Africans must change themselves and solve their problems. Change your totalitarian system to democracy.

@blazer9547

They didn't fix the dams even though a university warned

@wamarite

The county govt is to blame with poor urban planning and incompetent visionless leadership.
