This does not limited to Lagos Alone. It can happen Anywhere this also happen in some part of Germany last, it even there more developed city. Can we say house built there are not well planned when building them?. This is Due to climate change, the weather is not predictable for now.

I agree with you, but the hype of that area is not worth it. Everything is 0. From security to access road, water, or serenity... It's all messed up.

The situation is seriously pathetic

Soon lagos will be submerged or rather loose a bulk of her land to rising sea levels

Julianaa:
Oba people rushing to the thread to type "Lagos is overhype"

And I ask, is it not? Do you need Oba people to tell you that before you know?

I just pray we won't experience wat happened in Indonesia 16years.

Baawaa:
More money more problem,
Must you stay at lekki

Aje.....


i regreted coming from PH to Lekki....Lekki na name but nothing in terms of rain...na opposite ...

Hmmm

Kweeeke! Kweeke'm o!! Kweeke'm o!!

My mother said the water at Obalende was up to her waist (and mumsie is tall) and I thought she was exaggerating. Now I believe her

Ha

2special:
Where are the Lagos is over hyped, Lagos is slut, I can never live in Lagos....but thousands of people are still coming to stay permanently in that over hyped city, you guys need to redefine some words in which you used to define Lagos...... Lagos is still the centre of excellence....I Love my Lagos...

Can't you just carry you L quietly?
L is for Lagos.

22 years of APC in Lagos this is the result

Baawaa:
More money more problem,
Must you stay at lekki

My guy, even if i have the money sef i still won't live there

Mechanics - time for business.

Indeed there's nothing to brag about in this world. Just a few hours rain, see the level of damage. What if it now rains for a day or 2 consistently?
Lord show us mercy.

Those with the latest cars weren't spared as they abandoned it to find their way home.

Help me stay humble

Ladipo guys licking their lips

Righteousness2:
Anyone who doubts what BABA did in the times of Noah should repent and ask for Mercy.

Folks! What we are seeing now all over the world is " Testing ! Testing" GOD is testing the Mic all over the World.

If you Have hope on Government, technology, your Pocket or whatever, you are totally missed it!
This Ship is Sinking !
The Life Boat is JESUS Christ.
Just as Noah and his family were Saved in the ark. JESUS is set to Harpazo His Children outta here. If you are left behind, it is unfortunate.
All that is Needed a Genuie surrenderness to JESUS Christ.

Bro, Jesus Christ can not save anyone the way you are putting it..
Only genuine repentance can save a soul, be you Hindu, Buddhist, Jew, muslim, pagan whatever..
The almighty God respects all religions, cos all religions are stitched into the same fabric that clothes divinity.
It is Simple. Anyone with much positive spiritual values in their soul would be taken, the rest would be left behind.
Jesus or no Jesus, Buddha or no Buddah.

Pardon my French but you need to quit sounding like a fanatic.

Funny enough Ibeju-Lekki does not suffer this much

Is it that Ibeju-Lekki is higher than Lekki phase 1 down to Ajah elevation wise or what?

lastempero:
Wahala dey for that part of the country i hope proper drainage is constructed to ameliorate all these crazy flooding.

This one goes beyond having a good drainage system, the place is below sea level so they will continue to have this problem

I don't understand pop, is it lekki phase one, or inside the phase one, cos I pass there the next day being Saturday, there is no water, abi name wenting

duchaB:


I agree with you that the power of water knows nothing about...bla bla bla.. esp with very poor drainage on roads.
Cos that Friday was an unfortunate and unforgettable day for me.
As I drove through ozumba Mbadiwe headed towards toll gate, my car got submerged in the flood that the water seeped into it, reaching to almost the gear level...

The earth is in a convulsion wth this kind of rains and floods..

Eiya .....it wasn't funny thou. Hope your car is okay now?

This is really bad! We shouldn't look to the government for everything though.

So effect of global warming is now God testing the microphone to you? Religion is truly the opium of the masses.

You get time de respond to person wey no get sense. The buffoon na educated idiot

Buy house for Lekki don turn to regrets

These are not recent images.

There is no Lekki phase 1 bustop post at that location again.

Just confirmed

Nawa ooh...You kno how many aje wey go don lost....mtchew..

Jakumo:
As global warming melts the polar ice caps, sea levels worldwide will rise, swallowing up coastal cities like Miami Florida, Mumbai, India and Lagos Nigeria. It is so ironic that the most expensive landed property in West Africa is located in places like Lekki, and the fabled Banana Island, yet, in a few short years, most buildings in those low-lying coastal areas of largely "reclaimed" land, are likely to wind up submerged under twenty feet of seawater, where they will become home to grateful fish and assorted other marine life.

It is very odd that Nigeria's moneyed elite are investing so much of their net worth on the purchase and development of reclaimed lagoon sea bed that will soon be part of the sea once again and forever

Global warming kill you there. I bet if science existed in Noah's time they'd say it's the effect of global warming.
Science kill you there. Educated idiot, u cant think for yourself. Like u saw the ice melt.

Not even a single flood at any part in Ikorodu..

I noticed how you avoided the earlier trend about the winners pastors sack because they not able to make money for daddy G.O. I intentionally read most of the comment looking for you particular comment but you were no where to be found. But when it come to creating and inserting fear and intimidating gullible people with any bad or an unfortunate news you will appear from no where like a red headed vulture. In fact guy you and your BABA that did whatever in times of one useless Noah are Idiots!!

You're a big fool for saying that

Only fools live in those area.
Flood every time.

So dis is their so called lekki? Abuja is still d best place to stay, come rain, come shine...

CocoaOla:
Nigeria is an Over priced shitty city/country without good road stable light drainage, and water good honest securities, miscreants politicians

This where the poorest people stay in Dubai

Population of UAE is not up to 1.5'm. Do the maths as regards to per capita and you won't be comparing Nigeria to UAE.
Compare Nigeria's poor Neighborhood with India's or Brazil.

So you sef noticed. I was actually looking for his comment on that thread but the weyrey avoided it. Putting fear in people, what a stupid way to preach. He's a chosen member so I'm not surprised, they are gullible people

Ha ha ha a lot of angry people on Nairaland these days. Enjoy your weekend, and maybe try to get laid. You sound so agitated and upset.

Anyway, I do agree that science is not for everyone, meaning that people who never read are best left to enjoy their bliss. Hope you get better.

Because the elites in Nigeria are hardworking when it comes to making money but when it comes to building legacies with their monies, they're lazy. That's why the vast array of slums in other places in Lagos and other economically viable cities are left alone while everyone is rushing to the underwater environment even though ordinary good drainage system, we cannot construct.

You see, our problem is not just the government, Nigerians themselves are quite poor in thinking when it comes to building good structures for residences etc
