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.

ednut1:


they have a drainage system tho. What we have is gutter to gutter linking to Canada

ekestic1976:


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.

wunmi590:


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

Only God can save nigeria

LagbajaTheBEREAN:

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.

CUMIN:


Rubber stamp reps

nowhere:
Same way FG ignored other states while developing Lagos.

wunmi590:


Can you imagine, chop amala with their money...


Honestly, is not as easy as I want to say it, but at least if the lanlord in that area can collectively contribute money and do somethings the government have abandoned, nah then go enjoy am las las...

Whoyoo08:
Motion won't be easy

The worst disaster in this part of the world is the humans! Check the drainages and na pure water nylon, plastic bottles and all sorts of trash go full am. Why flooding no go happen.

liasmiram2567:



Hey man , Hon Gbajabiamila represents Surulere constituency 1 and Ijeshatedo is in Constituency 2.The representative is Hon.Soyinka(Pdp). It should be noted that those streets should normally be taken care if by the itire/Ikate LCDA

LagbajaTheBEREAN:

Exactly.

I'm afraid, the seemingly absence of maintenance culture/I don't care attitude may likely spell doom at the end for most Nigerians

Revolva:
Ijeshatedo residents battled heavy floods this morning after a 6-hour rainfall submerged various parts of the community.

The streets affected were mostly, ilamoye street,omolabanke street, and doyin oyeduro street, and a host of nearby streets, which were swept by the early morning rainfall that led to the floods and could be observed and verified that the major cause of the water on the streets was due to the bad drainage system and the bad road network which the itire ikate LCDA has failed to upgrade and put in proper conditions, also resulting in too many bad roads in the LCDA .

The rain also forced many residents to stay indoors, as the streets have been totally flooded and residents could not move out without entering the dirty waters to get across, so as to get to their destination.

Franklyspeakin:
Is this not under Joe ibokwe the noise maker?

TripleOh7:


What a lame response.

Can you list exactly how and when the Federal government developed Lagos.

So it's no longer the Igbos that developed Lagos, it is now the federal government?

You've got jokes.

Your own state governors don't collect monthly allocation cum security votes from the center right?

wunmi590:


You are right about the lack of maintenance culture of some Nigerian...

But I have cone to understand that, if people do things with their money, they tend to take care of it more...

Believe me, if the lanlord can contribute and maintain the areas and eradicate the flood by getting drainage they would maintain it more better....

If you are conversant with Lekki, that's what most of the lanlords in the street does and it pays off

LagbajaTheBEREAN:

Your second paragraph is spot on but I guess some folks over there are waiting for Joe Igbokwe or better Femi to come do something for them.

I really hope the few sensible ones will take cue from those one at Lekki.

All the money received from us by those in government is for what please?
For looting and sharing only

You can't deny it. Lagos isn't the only Yoruba land ...why are others not attractive? Abi na only Lagos get water bodies? Put Fed might down East and South South and watch. Your case is having your cake and eating it too!

TripleOh7:


Why are others not attractive

Yeye.

How many other Yoruba states have you actually been to?

Maybe you should leave home and travel a bit.

Because u pay tax(es) does that mean u should degrade your environment? The Govt of Lagos is trying with d PSP(LAWMA) Initiative. But regressive pple like u supporting ills in the society will never let this country go.

If u traveled abroad, cld u say because u pay tax u can mess up d environment? Orderliness starts with the mindset of us caring for our environment and OTHERS(PEOPLE).
