Lagos Is Ready For Flood by EkoAtlantic: 1:23pm On May 13, 2013

Lagos State Ministry of Environment said on Sunday it had put in place measures to reduce to the barest minimum, incidences of flooding in the state. This is contained in a statement signed by the Ministry's Public Relations Officer, Mr Fola Adeyemi. The Statement was sent to Daily Times of Nigeria.

The statement said the Commissioner for Environment, Mr Tunji Bello, monitored the mid-rain cleaning programme embarked upon by the Drainage Maintenance Office and Emergency Flood Abatement Unit of the ministry. The ministry assured Lagos residents that the state government would sustain its all-year maintenance and cleaning programmes.

It said that this would ensure that major canals and channels were kept clean to allow free flow and discharge of water whenever it rains.
``It will be recalled that the Lagos State Government alerted Lagos residents earlier in the year that the state is to experience rains of high intensity with accompanied thunderstorms.

``We have put in place deliberate preventive plans and programmes to ensure that the incidence of flooding is reduced to the barest minimum,” the statement said.
