Residents of Odo Afa, along Oke-Oko–Isawo Road, Ikorodu, are battling tough times after heavy rainfall. With the flyover bridge construction still incomplete, the area has become nearly impassable.
In a display of resilience, locals have turned to makeshift solutions, even using a ladder as a bridge to cross the flooded zone.
Long queues now form daily as residents navigate this improvised lifeline.
TVC previously reported that the Federal Ministry of Environment has issued a warning that several locations across 16 states may experience heavy rainfall, likely to result in flooding, between October 4 and October 8, 2025.
