Lagos Flood-The irony of living in the so called good environment




I don’t normally do this but this is something that should be looked into fast……sometimes when it rains in Victoria Garden City,the water dries off within 3to 4hours,apart from the last catastrophe few years back we had that people lost their lives, leakagesin homes in some part of Lagos.In VGC the flood  took one month to dry off completely especially at the exit entrance,the heavy traffic it caused, left many cars damaged,even jeeps broke down.

There was a promise that they will resolve these issues,but from the looks of things we are back to square one...

What triggered everything this morning was when I had gotten ready for church service, I got an alert from 
VGC maintenance department on my phone stating flooding areas are high…..unbelievable……as I took 3mins drive to see if there was a way I could get out of the estate and make my way to church…unfortunately I met this photo above

Then I went online to see what the rest of Lagos was


...see what Nigerians are going through...... in Agege motor road,Mushin, Abule egba, Iju,vgc, Onipan, Ketu, Oshodi, Agege, Yaba,just to mention a few.

    The way and manner these developers encroach the ocean, in search of land to build on is one of the reasons why Lagos cannot solve this flooding crises, I just hope we don't experience something more sinister than this in future.......Eko Atlantic City is a clear example of what i'm talking about....people should fear God ooooooo

    @oghale what has God got to do with this,the poor structure on Nigerian roads are the reasons for such, if proper foundation and adequate measures were taken from the foundation, will not find such an eye saw images
