Friday’s torrential rainfall in various parts of Lagos and Ogun State has led to flood incidents in the two states.
This was confirmed by some celebrities who shared videos on their Twitter accounts.
Residents were forced to stay indoors or seek makeshift shelters while in transit as various streets were covered in floodwater. The heavy rain also slowed the free flow of traffic, creating gridlocks in many parts of the Lagos metropolis.
Some of the affected areas are Marina, Lekki, Agege, Iju Road, Victoria Island, Oshodi, Ilupeju, Ogudu, Ketu and Magboro among other parts of the states.
