Makoko Slum in Lagos- Daily Mail UK’s reports


According to Daily mail UK Growing up in shacks built on murky water in the midst of filth; men, women and children struggle through life each day.

Their canoes drift on the water as piles of rubbish float outside their shacks.
Shabby shacks on stilts, floating waste and rickety boats fill the expanse of murky water.
But for the thousands of poor people forced to live in Nigeria’s infamous Makoko slum in Lagos, this is their home.
Every day life for the many fishermen and their families revolves around paddling and rowing through the filthy, oily water in the slum – but this does not stop the young children from beaming when they see a camera.

Do you remember when I posted a similar story on this,here is a recap, in case you missed it.
