ressway.
Decrying that the situation was affecting his business, the resident appealed to the Lagos State Government to come to their aid. Another resident, Mrs Bunmi Awosanya, said due to the flooding, she and her family had vacated their house on Saturday. One of the residents, Mr Yinka Olumuyiwa, also vacated the estate on Saturday, saying he was tired of the situation.
Badejo attributed the flooding of the 300-home estate to the overflowing of the Ogun River as a result of the opening of the Abeokuta Dam in Ogun State and the Asejire Dam in Osun State.He said because the estate was about 0.9m above sea level, the area had always become prone to flooding every year the dams were opened. He said this year’s flooding was the worst residents had witnessed.
“We’ve been having this bad experience in the past three weeks. It’s a sad situation and we need government’s intervention urgently. We appeal to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu to come to our aid,” he said. “At one of the blocks, a house has been completed and furnished but the owner cannot move in because of floods. It is saddening,” he said.
