…Demolishes Lekki structures on drainage channels
By Olasunkanmi Akoni
The Lagos State Government has maintained that the ongoing interventions on drainage channels, wetlands and floodplains have significantly reduced the impact of heavy rainfall despite the effects of climate change, even as it cautioned critics against politicking.
State Commissioner for the Environment and Water Resources, Tokunbo Wahab, stated this yesterday in an interview with newsmen after inspecting drainage channels and flood-prone areas at Oniru, Chevron Drive, Agungi-Ajiran, Freedom Road and Orange Island.
