Photo: Alpha beach overflow this morning

Here's a pic of the surrounding areas of Alpha Beach. There was a beach overflow this morning. Ocean View Estate is seriously effected including surrounding houses. Squatters around the beach have been rendered homeless. Are the people who live around this area in any danger...? Could it get worse than this? See more photos after the cut...

      This is the result of what they are doing at the bar beach. U guys should go to bar beach and see what is happening there. So what do they expect that will happen here before , when dey don turn bar beach to land the water will definitely disturb the pple living here now.

    If this happened to homes not necessarily close to the beach, Imagine what will one day happen to that Eko atlantic project? God forbid.
    BTW, Lekki has some really bad drainage systems that need to be fixed. Even after raining, you still see stagnant water in some places.

    I laugh when I see property being sold for huge money on the island and lekki knowing how many meters below sea level it is.Time magazine published an article some years ago about the folly of land being highly priced in an area where a sudden rise(in centimeters ) of the sea level could submerge large portions of it overnight.my two cents,it will only get worse,land on the mainland is underpriced;but not for long.

    I am not against riches or someone living in affluence but we do it most times in ignorance. people started blocking beaches and other water body to build houses without recourse to proper drainage system. this is just d beginning . I cannot buy a houses in those area at lekki where they reclaimed land without planning for drainage. some day some time , like new York city and part of new jersey palava last yr ,water go vex and all will go under.

    FYI: To those that dont realize... most of the houses on that road were built long before the relatively recent rapid encroachment of the waters. The shoreline was quite a distance away from the last house on the road, until recently. This *IS* a federal govt responsibility, & its not just abt alpha beach, its the entire Island that is at stake. The reason for the recent surge is debatable, but a lot has been said abt projects such as Eko atlantic.
