VIDEO: Lagos Residents cry out as flood ravages communities Heavy flooding has wreaked havoc in the Ijede area of Ikorodu, Lagos State, displacing residents and submerging homes, vehicles, and properties. Several viral videos circulating on social media over the weekend have drawn public attention to the worsening situation, prompting urgent calls for government intervention. In one of the videos, a distressed woman could be heard speaking in Yoruba, pleading for help. “We are in Oko Ope in Ijede. Have mercy on us. This is our community. We can't even enter the house; the flood has damaged everything. I'm not even wearing footwear. Come and save us. Today is 4th of August, 2025. Come and rescue people,” she said. Another video showed the extent of flooding in the area, with homes and vehicles submerged in water. A male resident, lamenting the situation, said: “This is what I’m facing in my area in Ijede. From August 3rd to 4th, Monday morning, inside and outside my house is full of water. Big ocean. See cars inside water.” The Lagos State Government has acknowledged the situation and assured residents that a long-term solution is underway. In a statement, authorities emphasized their commitment to addressing perennial flooding in vulnerable areas across the state. Residents, however, continue to call for immediate relief and expedited infrastructure upgrades to prevent further disasters. Credit: X // tokunbo_wahab, ChuksEricE
