Lagos state government is appealing to residents living in low lying areas to relocate to higher grounds following hours of torrential rainfall in the state.
In a statement signed by the commissioner for Environment, Tokunbo Wahab, he explained that Lagos has experienced about 9 hours of rainfall since the early hours of Wednesday.
Mr. Wahab explained that the flash floods which inundated areas like Iyana Oworo linking the Third Mainland and several other areas will recede once the rains abate and the level of the lagoon goes down.
The Commissioner added that the State has also deployed officials of the Emergency Flood Abatement Gang to major black spots including Iyana Oworo which has been cleared of all blockages.
He also urged residents to desist from wading through floods with their vehicles, as it takes only a feet of flowing water with high tide to sweep away a vehicle irrespective of the number of occupants.
He also urged residents to regularly clean and maintain the tertiary drains in front of their tenements and refrain from dumping refuse in the drains for the collective good of everyone.
