Reference:


You can imagine someone like this in a position of authority or in a position of influence or responsibility.

Instead of seeking solutions and being cerebral about challenges their minds just yield to primitive, parochial sentiment that offers nothing positive.


My points remain valid.


Lagos has the smallest landmass of all the 36 states in the federation but has the largest population of over 20 million humans without counting dogs, cats, witches and wizards.


People leave their states and regions and migrate without having any job or accomodations to stay.

They leave their governors to embezzle their state funds while burdening Lagos state government.

And then they come online to join in the mockery of Lagos state as dirty city.

What did you expect?

Most of the people flooding into Lagos aren't even in the taxable bracket. So I wonder what they are bringing with them.

So, speak all the grammar you want, the truth will always be the truth.

Leave the megs city for Lagosians. Go back to your state.

Have you not seen flood in America before? Flood occurs when their is heavy rainfall within a short time and the rate of the rainfall surpasses the rate of drainage. After a few hours, the flood disappears. Go to this same location two hours after the rainfall and see if you'll find the flood.

Yiu might be from Ogun. ...the truth is that flood in NYC is mainly hurricane, tornadoes and weather ...I stay in Lagos also ...Lagos is not well planned

Take a chill, Bros. Even some of the European megacities are often flooded. There's no big deal about that, especially if the city is not much higher than the Sea Level. Some semi-literate minds in Geography and Oceanography wouldn't know this. Flooding isn't always caused by filth and unplanned landscape. Even then, show me which city is planned or is better than Lagos in Nigeria.

I lived up to 7 years in that area.
The PDP has a current federal house of Rep member who grew up in that same location, but no help. APC produced the LCDA chairman and all councillors and still no love from them either. I just hope it's not an issue of the grass suffers when the elephants fight. I really can't decipher the issue with fixing that area's canals, drainage and roads. That area is clearly a shame to behold. O Yes, less I forget, it's under Lagos Central Senatorial district presided over by the APC. The residents require urgent help from above to make life easy and illness free.

How do you want to plan Lagos? Kick some people out, una say no, tear down houses and illegal structure, una frown face. What exactly is government to do? Even with waste disposal our people refuse to do the right thing, I grew up in Mushin, everytime rain fell heavily na national garbage day. You buy pure water, biscuit, na ground the wrapper dey go, do we think all these things won't have consequences?

If dem start locking people up for pollution, na we go still shout say human right......

Op, I grew up in Ijeshatedo. Adesina, ijesho road, Omilani, Omolola, Oke onijo, Sanusi, Erelu, Ilamoye, Akeukewe.... I know all those areas.
Please, this looks like a street off Ijesha road.
Kindly confirm.

Even in the 80s and 90s when I lived at Ijesha, things are not this bad. I went to Duro Oyedoyin while my sister went to Aguntasolo. We lived between Omolabake and Salami street. The roads aren't this bad.
Oh, Lord, Why is our past better than present?

And we have federal rep who is a speaker that comes from that surulere....

Only God can save nigeria
Funny enough, he was around Ojuelegba axis some weeks ago to come eat amala. He said he's only around to come see how things is going and check the locale...

That's by the way, the drainages need to maintained collectively and not just expecting some semi-dead beat government to come down and do that.

Yet GID N Ekenedilichuwu is always filled with refugees from Alaigbo pouring into the overhyped Lagos like sand of the Sahara to slave away their wretched miserable soul.

If anyone as right to complain about Lagos it is definitely not you despicable lot.

Abuja better pass Lagos and this is obviously a case of blocked gutters, some people dump their refuse in the gutters can you imagine? Those cities you are calling are flooded because of rising sea level.
