The Lagos State Government has warned residents in flood-prone areas like Ajegunle (Ajilete axis), Majidun in Ikorodu, and parts of the Lekki corridor to relocate to higher ground as heavy rainfall continues.
Environment Commissioner Tokunbo Wahab, speaking on Channels TV, said the warning is due to Lagos’ coastal nature and the growing impact of climate change, which heightens the risk of flash flooding.
He reassured that areas like Epe, Mushin, and Ikeja are safe but urged residents in Isheri OPIC to stay alert.
