Heavy Rain Wreck Havoc In Lagos Early Monday Morning: 1 Killed
Left: Moremi hall after the down pour today. Right: A large billboard fell on a Camry along Ikoyi/Obalende bridge. Continue to see more of the damage the rain caused in Lagos today.
A teacher at St. Gregory College, Obalende, killed by the mast which collapsed on him.
Thats a picture of what to expect this rainy season. Not forgetting last year's catastrophe. Lagosians and the Government should prepare. Thank God am currently not in Lagos. Wishing them the best this coming rainy season.

Linda Ikeji, what do you want me to give you on Val Day? What do you desire? A pregnancy? A baby? I'm your man. Cum see me in NYC. I will give you a BABY. If you want money, gifts, car, or wedding ring, get lost. Smh.
We are discussing an important issue and you are talking trash. If you dey nyc nko. Rubbish, oponu. Na baby Linda wan chop? Take ur stupid nyc mentality and go hug transformer
I was on the road while it rained, it was a terrifying experience with sharp and heavy objects falling on the road. The rain droped like cubes of sugar. Let's pray against this type of rain because we can't stand the damages.
It was so sad for what happened today. All we need to do everyday b4 we go out from our homes is to ask God to be with us in our going out and in coming in. The person that lost his life never expected it to happen. God Be With Us
Dats my brother teacher,he was a futhermaths teacher, dey said he was d nicest man any1 cud av as a teacher n he jus lost his sister lastweek,now this wat a way 4 his wife 2 celebrate valentine
I watched with dismay as the PS on environmental issues was talking on air yesterday about how they cleared Alexandar,boudillon etc.they didnt think they should mention and show other areas as this above.why?cos the people that live in other areas besides bourdillon areas(tinubus area)arent people?
Yesterday's rain was so so heavy..I forgot something at home in the morning so I quickly drove back to get it, the rain met me on the way home and it was indeed a very funny episode, everywhere became so dark, I had to use full headlights (at 7am), the winds were SO SO strong, I was literally fighting with the winds to close the house gates, when I thought I had one closed, the winds blew the second gate and slammed it hard against the car... At the end of the episode I was so soaked, just had to get into the car n rush back to work like that..
This is so sad. Those that died left their houses not knowing what they would behold...we do not know the day nor the hour...let us just keep praying for God's protection over our lives and our families day in, day out. May the souls of the departed rest in peace. Amen!
It was really terrible. Part of my neighbour's roofing sheets ended up in my compound while the electric poles on my street got broken. It was a real disaster yesterday. When I woke up, I actually thought people were fighting on my roof. The wind was extremely scary!
when ll nigeria become like other develop country like uk,use even gana is better than us,just because of rain somebody lost his life what of does country were it snows every day how may people has it kill shame to nigerian government
WOW! apple you are a big idiot. wow wow! its almost unbelievable. what is your point? that the Nigerian govt should have sent someone to grab the mast that fell on him :S. people die in the snow, floods and that in 1st world countries. trust me i know. so again i ask.... YOUR POINT?
