Barely two weeks before the commencement of heavy rainfall, the Lagos State Government has warned residents living on flood plains of major rivers and drainage channels to be on the alert and ready to relocate to higher grounds when the need arises.
The State Commissioner for the Environment and Water Resources, Mr. Tokunbo Wahab gave the warning during a press conference at Ikeja, on Seasonal Climate Predictions (SCP) to annually alert Lagosians of the predicted rainfall patterns and its socio-economic implications for the people of the State.
While highlighting the flood plains areas such as Owode, Iwaya, Makoko, Badia, Ijora, Isaalu, Pota, Shibiri, among others, the Commissioner stated that the state government would continue to notify such residents at the appropriate time.
