Yesterday, the Lagos State Commissioner for Environment, Dr Babatunde Adejare and the EFAD (Emergency Flood Abatement Department) rescue team paid a working visit to the Lekki Peninsula axis of Lagos state due to the massive floods which hit the area.

Meanwhile, the Lagos State Government has appealed to residents of Lagos living in flood-prone areas to relocate in the aftermath of incessant heavy rainfall within the metropolis in order to avert loss of lives and properties.

Commissioner for the Environment, Dr. Samuel Adejare, in a statement also warned all residents in the State of the consequences of the continuous heavy rainfall being experienced in most parts of Lagos on lives and properties.

Adejare noted that rainfall was bound to disrupt normal activities as well as have an untoward effect on landed properties, roads and environment.

He implored all Lagosians to, as much as possible, stay indoors during rainfall, except it is important to their safety and livelihood.

“You are implored as much as possible to stay indoors unless it is essential to your safety and livelihood. However, we strongly advise those who live in lowland and close to water bodies to move upland,” he said.

He added that officers from the Ministry had been deployed to coastal areas and sites that were susceptible to flooding as part of efforts to protect the lives and properties of the citizens.

Just take a look at those furcking pretenders on yellow rain boots, if they tell you the amount they purchased those boots, you'll be shocked.

A flood is coming that will sweep away all nigerian politicians and anyone that has ever held nigerian masses hostage politically, economically or socially. The day of reckoning is almost here.

How to identify career politicians

Doctor go put stethoscope for neck
Lawyer go wear wig for head
Security go carry two way radio
Engineer go wear hard hat
Politician go carry belle for front

The money meant for the water drainage in Lagos state, is still with the Central Bank of Lagos.

Ordinary one day Flood, you guys are already parading and showing sympathy.

We read a lot about badoo gang killing and maiming people in Ikorodu for over months, without any show of concern from you.

Are they not lagosians as well...

Biased government Mr. Ambode is running

Kukuma buy canoe

Hate filled. Gosh! Get a detox fast.

That Marrafûçking fat idiot should be made to lie down in the fûçking water and use as a fûçking floater..The mugcunt been sitting indoor filling up his fûçking septic tank of a Tummy!! Fat idiot

Nothing will be done after his visit.

This is clearly beyond the commissioner, the Truth is that Lagos Island requires an ecological Marshall Plan now that will require International , national and state govts inputs to make a difference...We need help

na wa oo

Did he bring rescue boat to save them?

Ok

Pot bellies everywhere
