It was earlier reported today that water hyacinth has taken over the Ikorodu Water Terminal which makes it difficult to boats to navigate the waters.

We have it on good authority that the Lagos State Government through the Lagos State Waterways Authority (LASWA) has commenced clearing of the water hyacinth. Pegging of the ferry route channel commenced last week and manual clearing has already started at the Ipakodo terminal also called Ikorodu Terminal.

Nice one..

See more of the clearing of the waterways below...

Weldone gidi....

Good
If this happened in Imo, Ihedioha would blame Okorocha for the growth of the weeds.

If na Abia, Ikpeazu would give Abians kerosene to drink. Hungry Abians would then deny that there are no weeds there.

If it were in Enugu, Ugwuanyi would get to the river bank and start crying.

In Ebonyi, Umahi would employ 4 labourers to cut the weeds and appoint 23 Special Assistants and 15 Senior Special Assistants over the "project".

If in Anambra, Obiano would print his face on Ankara, wear the Ankara to the site, pluck a single leaf, sign an MOU. By tomorrow, you would see a big signboard of "Willie is Working".

Ok

Great

They should be careful of pythons, though.

Nigeria self. Why use manual method

This is a welcome development.

God bless Lagos State government.

God bless Federal Republic of Nigeria

Eko oni baje
Lagos is working.

Ah.. Can they tell us how much was allocated for it..

They probably let it over grow so they can allocate fund for it.. Fund that will be embellezed

Very very bad road and even worst waterways. Sanwoolu, which way. Wake up and do something

98% of lagos is a sorry slum

Hh

Which method should they use? Are u not a Nigerian

Won't it pose health risk to those doing it manually? Nigerians with always cutting corners,I'm sure they are trying to cut cost

Is there not a machine that can do this work faster and effectively? Why must we be doing like cavemen everytime?

I hope they also clear the people who go there to shit and dump waste

Good
What about the water hyacinth machine bought for this purpose in 2016?

Just because it is called waterways doesn't mean that it is water that is clean enough. Look at that man that is almost submerged in it, I hope he remembers to take antibiotics.

Yet you modafvckers continue crowding the place.

I think you mean women will come out in force to say, no water hyacinth here.!

Ok, there should be a modern way of clearing water Hyacinth instead of manual approach.
Lagos is too big for this manual approach.

They need to adopt a more strategic approach. The hyacinth are seasonal. So it is better to find the seeds after this exercise

Hmmmmm! Succulent something you got
