Flood Takes Over Ikorodu Road, Lagos (Photos)

Pools of water accumulate at various locations on the Ikorodu road, Lagos.

Many vehicles are seen navigating through the heavily flooded road around Maryland mall, Ikorodu road in Lagos.

This makes it difficult for residents around the Ikorodu road and those who pass through the road to connect the Lagos Island and environs.

The flood paralyzed commercial activities within the area and transport fares had gone up due to the jidrainfall and bad roads.

Also, the flood swept some debris in its path, causing some drains and drainage channels to become blocked.

Some residents and the road users are calling on the executive governor of Lagos State, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu to urgently come to their rescue.

By last weekend in Lagos, residents of Surulere, and parts of Lekki and Ajah, were faced with untold hardships as some roads and household valuables were submerged in flood.

The torrential rainfall which started around 5:00am in parts of the metropolis left many roads and neighbourhoods flooded, NAN reports.
