Exactly. This man IS the kind of leader we need at all level though I suspect his hands are tied especially with the random sand-fillings by powerful people of some areas. He has worked in the US where leaders apologize when needed.
Taking notes is an old secondary school scam to deceive the teacher that you care about your education. Nothing will change but building coastal super highway that will be under water and demolition igbo properties to make way for water to enter the city easily. 😂😂😂Remember when that Oba, ethnic Cleanser said he will throw igbos into the lagoon? Don't worry, #the lagoon is going to your house.

10-12% of Nigeria’s population live in Lagos but some critics aren’t factoring in that there are 35 states whose governors are redundant and lazy. The US has multiple “Lagoses” but Nigerians troop into Lagos at the rate of 10,000 per day from all over Nigeria.
There is need to restore environmental sanitation even if it is once a month like it used to be some years ago, this way waste can be properly managed. I believe lagos state issue is more of a community service.
It happened in some Countries all over the World accepted ; but why can't he compared Our COUNTRY with Good things in those COUNTRIES he mentioned ? If it is only on electricity ?.
I do not accept his explanation and excuses. There is no good drainage structures in Lagos. If there should be high water level from the lagoon or whatever, I see it as blessing that can chanel to produce water in waterworks process and feed back for domestic usage. The Lagos State governments officials do not fully understand what a good structural drainage system is. It seems to me that Lagos State government is not yet in the vision of what is good structural drainage. Domestic waste water and rain water is not flowing through to anywhere they remain stagnat and later evaporated. The removal of illegal structures on canals is a scratch on the surface. Time will tell. YB
It's in UK too. Last Year a Man and his wife drove into the flood caused by flood and drowned. Cos there was a river or stream with high level. It was so sad.
I struggle to applaud the fellow as much as it’s seems he is trying to be responsible by having a conversation about the failures of the government(APC) he works under. “A stich in time saves nine” but what the APC has done after many years of ruling Lagos is what they know how to do best… enrich their pockets and blame others in this case: climate change for their inadequacies and failures. Many Lagosians are educated and exposed, what we want to see is results that speaks for themselves not empty promises and excuses of a failed government.
Let the Lagos state government call Julius beggar construction to handle highways flooding on Ikorodu Road, Agege Motorways, etc, and all these annual flooding will be history. This wonderful construction company handled many deflooding of highways during Alhaji L. Jakande era in lagos state. Also, point of correction of the hardworking Hon.Commissioner of the environment, wet rubbish brought out from drainages, do not have to be dry before being carried to dump site! During Jakande and military eras, these rubbish were taken away immediately - every rubbish, no matter how massive the rubbish that was cleared - within a day or two after removal.
Somebody is trying to build on a portion that was meant to be a road and on my street subsequently caused flooding. Labsca descended and marked the plot, stopped work for a while but we don't know what transpired after the initial gra gra by the state officials the owner has since resumed construction and has completely blocked drainages and our road is seriously flooded now
The property is going to be demolish soon. The nonchalant attitude of most Nigerians is the cause of all this problems. While some criminal so called property developers cartels are benefiting from all this illegal construction on government land meant for drainage.
He had a good explanation of the problem, but as city developer he should be talking about taming nature not embracing nature, else we can just live in the bush!
Lagos state is full of favouritism. Why give approval to people (I'll call your friends and cronies) to sandfill the lagoon while the government is looking elsewhere for solution to flooding. Water must find its level, so stop the deceit, stop the money bags from sand-filling the lagoon and erecting buildings there, e.g. Oworonsoki end of the third mainland bridge.
Lagos is not supposed to be floated because we have rivers,Lagoon and sea around Lagos.Can’t the waters be channeled there?Well it happens everywhere in the world because of global warming.Please put things in place to alleviate this.
I m impressed by his knowledge of the problem and area..Reach out to the storm water experts who are Nigerian Americans in the diaspora. We do this for large cities in the U S
Using climate change and global warming as an excuse by the commissioner is ignorance.....Climate change is man made,it's the result of human activities on nature,not natural.Other countries are building artificial lakes to control erosion and humidity yet lagos state that is actually called lakes is busy sand filling lakes and waterways for estates.Other nations are planting trees to prevent,reduce flooding and climate change, but lagos state government does not understand the importance of planting trees.Nigerian government always using the negative things happening in the west as an excuse,why not build Florida environment and infrastructures in lagos as well then?Thank you.
@@Sholaades5145 lt's not the reality of life,that is a lie.lf you cut down trees indiscriminately and sand filled waterways you should expect flooding,or should l say you should expect the climate to change then.Sand filling waterways that nature meant to act as a collectors when the sea overflows or when it rains and blaming climate change is lack of knowledge.Apart from building drainages,lagos state should plant more trees,ask every home owner to landscape their property and banned the filling of waterways for estates.That is the solution,don't blame it on climate changing.
Didn't Tinubu built Lagos, a mega city full of knuckleheads. This is an apparent display of lack of engineering knowhow on the part of our not-well-versed, half-baked engineers. Why are they badly constructed structures sinking and others fell flat on their faces...corruption is at the root of these structural debacles.
Criticise with an open mind. This is not Lagos or Nigeria problem, it's global. The world is at your finger tips, make use of the social media positively not with a biased mind.
How convenient to blame to global warming on everything. Lagos Island area has been flooding every July of each year once there is a decent amount of rain for as long as I can remember.
The issue is that majority (not all) of us are corruptible/corrupt. We will allow improper things when financially beneficial. Most will rather buy Mercedes g wagons than ensure allocated money goes to infrastructure maintenance. Until that majority becomes a minority, nothing will change enough to make the needed difference. Even Westerners know this about us and some exploit it. Go see the 1920's based movie titled "Mr. Johnson". We (including myself) need to stop making improper or substandard things ok even if it benefits us. Otherwise, we will only keep complaining for generations.
Which part of demolition city do you live? After demolishing igbo properties that where built on waterways? Who gave approval to convert flood plains, catchment areas for housing? Who gave approval to sand fill waterlogs areas? Yes we have climate change and environmental impact issues Locust president decided to build new coastal super highway to some village called calabar another coastal city. This super highway will be under water. Chief Alhaji Tinubu, the jargaban of Lagos himself alone gave approval. We should not forget what he said about climate change and environmental issues during the campaign, we have the evidence on video 😢😢. This Locust have indeed come to devour. Congratulations maga city the bride of Asiwaju of Chicago. Ignorance is the worst thing to happen to anyone. 😂😂😂😂 please where is dr betta? I hear she is still collecting her minimum wage of 7mN per month. To be a sidechic pays well 😂😂😂

@solomon9947 as you write you are also biased, thank God Almighty for social media and access. If not rich mind like you could have feed us junk news. Lazy and wicked people make excuses for everything. Who gave approval to sand-fill natural flood plains and who sold land on waterways, who collected the taxes paid and other fees? Who demolished the big building that was built to block water from coming into the city from the lagoon? Money answer to all but also the roots of all evil. Solo do you by any chance live near a transformer 🤔 go and hug it. We're the world. The Borrowing Locust is 100% responsible.😛😛😝
You don't need to watch them. And mind you, it takes one werey to identify another, in other words, you are definitely a werey too 😂😂😂😂. Don't come for me o 🤣

It's the way the commissioner is so attentive, patient and calm in his responses.
Embark on a campaign to reduce the waste! Too much plastic is causing a lot of harm
I cab almost guarantee you that this guy iswell trained professional and maybe US trained. We are taught to serve the people
Exactly. This man IS the kind of leader we need at all level though I suspect his hands are tied especially with the random sand-fillings by powerful people of some areas. He has worked in the US where leaders apologize when needed.

I also like that he's taking note.
I hope work is been done in these places.
Well done sisters ❤
