Flood caused by heavy rain on Wednesday has submerged Shadia Estate in Sholuyi, Gbagada, Lagos, leaving residents in distress.
An X user who identifies as #MyGbagada shared a video of the flooding on X.com showing the extent of the damage.
The user captioned the video, “Shadia Estate by the canal (Sholuyi Gbagada )is totally flooded and most houses are submerged because the canal had been stagnant & it’s overflowing back into the road and houses.
“Dear sir #tokunbo_wahab, please help us clear the canals to prevent loss of properties and lives.”
Reacting the Lagos commissioner of environment and water resources, Tokunbo Wahab said the situation would be addressed.
He wrote, “This will be addressed soon.”
