It is as though we are determined to be foolish in this country.

Draining Lagos is not complicated.

These problems have solutions! The trouble is that if things worked in Nigeria, the politicians and administrators would only have their salaries to take home

No more overbloated contracts and 60/40 kickbacks!

How do you drain an area like Lekki? Opened to your suggestion!

Drainages should be re- assessed and waste management fully reviewed and implemented.

You've got plenty sense there sir. Some people profit where there is chaos. Unfortunately for us as a nation, we have not started real development.

SalamRushdie:
That portion has always been like that for years and every small rain makes it fill up , it will clear up in hours as it drains into the spillway right across the road there

You have a good point!

The thread is filled-up with laymen who have no iota of what a coastal area like Lekki is made of

Look up Sustainable Urban Drainage (SUD)

After spending several millions to acquire a property in Lekki, one has to put up with this every undecidedtime it rains?

Ok, then go and put up a structure in Ikorodu and wait for the Bado gang and other cult idiots to come and wipe away your family, you'd tell me which trade off is better. Note, am not supporting the ineffectiveness of the bad governance in Nigeria across board, its not just Lekki side.
