Following many days of intense rains, residential neighborhoods and key roadways in Lagos State’s Ibeju-Lekki district have been inundated with floodwaters.

According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), residential areas in Ibeju-Lekki and other key places flooded as a result of Wednesday’s prolonged downpour.
Epe, Eredo, Bogije, Labora, Abijon, Sangotedo, Awoyaya, and Ibeju-Lekki were among the places impacted.

According to some locals who spoke with NAN, the flooding was caused by rubbish being dumped carelessly in the area, blocking rivers.
