Flint deserves clean water. Come on man.

How do you sue investment banks instead of the city government that made the decisions that caused this, and the government agencies that have squandered the relief money?

Nigerians need you ,Youth life’s are at risk ,our Government don’t want a future for us Nigeria We were given not so standard education ,and still yet never wanting us too suceed or live a better life EndSarznow EndSARSImmediately EndSARSProtest

All of those having anything to do with the poisoning of those innocent people need to be charged snd locked away something as simple as adding one chemical could have prevented this travesty.

Lawsuit is bull manure. Simply lawyers looking for a Payday from liability insurers. Case should be dismissed immediately.

Can't wait to hear how this turns out in 2-4 years, if the people of Flint last that long.
