Some people want to live in the ocean. let them go ahead and enjoy the beautiful and dangerous place. one day when the ocean will be tired of being pushed around, it will react in the most devastating way. hoping we will be able to contain it

Hello Tosin {nairanaijanews},

Believe it or not, this is Emma Abimbola Cole street in Lekki Phase 1 in Lagos. And no, it's not sometime in rainy July, it's the evening of 6th of January 2016..

The spot has been waterlogged throughout the harmattan and I don't know why. I'm getting pretty frustrated with it, because the road beneath the flood has degraded and is now very bad. We hear it has something to do with a leakage of pipes from the water board which is very close to the bad spot. Whatever it is, we the residents of the neighbourhood are quite frustrated with it, it's been so since I moved here almost two years now.

Please, publish this and shame the right authority into doing their job (it's a shame that that is the tactic tax-paying citizens have to resort to for basic amenities in Nigeria). I'd be truly grateful if you do. Thanks

Not unexpected. Its bound to happen and if care is not taken get worse.

What do you expect when you build on reclaimed land at a time when global warming is worsening and ocean volume is rising as the ice caps melts!

I'm sorry they've not seen anything yet!

My advice: Relocate to safer higher grounds!

yes, this should be expected, look at the drainage blocked with grass, during environmental day non of the residence come out for cleaning, everybody is claiming to be big men and women. then where to you expect the flood to flow to when the drainage is blocked?

Icon4s:
This may have something to do with the the continued rise in Sea level.Several other parts of Lekki are experiencing something similar.

If nature sustains the current rate of rise in Sea level over 50% of Lekki and Victoria Island mayb submereged in the next 20yrs -30yrs.

Successive Lagos state governments may spend large resources battling this ecological change.
