Major flooding has struck numerous areas across Lagos this Wednesday morning, July 3rd.

Heavy rainfall commenced in the early hours and has persisted without respite.

Areas such as Lekki, Ajah, and Ikoyi on the Island are submerged, while locations on the mainland including Gbagada, Surulere, Ikeja, and Iyana-Oworo are also severely affected.

Many residents woke to find floodwaters invading their homes.

Lagosians have taken to social media platforms like Twitter (X) to share accounts of the flooding affecting virtually every neighborhood in the city.

All five top trending topics on X are flood-related, reflecting the widespread impact.

The flooding has disrupted daily routines, with many workers unable to commute to work and consequently reaching out to human resources departments (HR) to report their absence. This has caused “Dear HR” to trend on X.

Concerned residents are calling for government intervention, with “State of Emergency” trending as they urge authorities to declare a state of emergency to address the flooding crisis in Lagos.
