This is why I laugh when some people compare Isheri North to Lekki in terms of flood. Don't act on hearsay, buy a plot in Isheri North now before it's too late. |

0b10010011: What can be done? Ever heard of canals? Levees? Dams? Even pump systems? How do you think countries like the Netherlands that are below sea level stop flooding. How do the people of Venice live on water? There are a thousand and one coastal cities around the world whose streets don't get flooded after a few hours of rain. Those that do is often due to more extreme conditions like hurricanes and severe storms. Lagos streets get flooded after just a few hours of continuous rain because of woefully inadequate drainage infrastructure. Let's not deceive ourselves. 13 Likes 1 Share |

The usual traffic alone is annoying. Everybody is running to Lekki, making the landlords richer with zero difference with the houses on the mainland. The day you realise home is where the comfort it, that's when you'll know that Lekki is just a name. Give me security and comfort and I'm good. 1 Like |

Obi1kenobi: If you familiar with Lekki, the flood will clear in hours. As for the countries you mention, do they have heavy liquefied down pour like that of lagos. No! The channel and canals you mentioned re there. It's just an unavoidable scenario! Its all round bounded by water and you can't just forcefully channel. You have to be patient. Areas like park view, Banana, Osborne foreshore will continue to be like that cos of human encroachment is a point I was expecting. Lagos still has a lot of land mass and it keeps concentrating on a spot! 2 Likes |

0b10010011: the clown said other coastal regions gets flooded after a few millimeters of rainfall the riff raffs we see on nairaland, some islands are visa free u can start from there so u wont make misguided ignorant remarks again. am sure u consider open shallow gutters as an effective drainage system |

High water table, poor planning and poor drainage system re the cause. Imagine me removing my shoe, rolling up my trousers just to go to my office in lekki? |

0b10010011: That it clears in few hours is precisely evidence that rather than ecological challenges, it's infrastructural challenges that cause flooding here. The kind of challenges that have sacked communities like New Orleans would wipe Lagos off the map. Nigeria is a lucky country. I shudder to think what would happen if this country had tsunamis, earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, cyclones etc. We would have gone extinct by now. The scenario is not "unavoidable" at all. Build expansive, closed, underground drainage systems that are integrated with municipal water treatment and supply faciities, and adequate channels, canals etc which drain out into the ocean and you'll see a stop to flooding. Keep digging 2-feet deep, open gutters flowing nowhere and blocked by garbage and waste and you'll keep getting floods. 5 Likes |
