Observation on Ongoing Road Redevelopment at Berger end of Lagos-Ibadan expressway.

Our attention has been drawn to the ongoing project as captioned above.  We envisage future drainage conflict which may shorten the life span of the project.
This shall largely be caused by differential size of the drainage channel between old and new drainage channels in the system.
This shall result to terminal conflict problem resulting to flood at 2 different points along gulf course club and towards Omole phase 2 and Olowora Community.
The increase storm water capacity of the new drainage channel shall generate storm water that the old channel and disposing canal cannot adequately handled thus generating delay which may result to massive flooding.
We use this medium to appeal to relevant authorities to look into this advocacy.

Oyan Dam Flooding it's basin in Ogun and Lagos States

Recently, in a telephone interview with Ogun State Commissioner for environment on the above subject matter, the honourable commissioner opined that nothing can be done to help residents affected by the flood since they have been warned ahead of time.
However,  we formed an opinion that, since prevention is always better than cure, it may be very irresponsible of government to put up excuse in a matter that is entirely within the jurisdiction of the state.
A lot of landuse abuse have been going on along this river basin for many years without any reaction by relevant state agencies.
Development control along these river basin has been in non existence.
We don't know yet of any public domain where information on development guide,  zonning regulations or master plan,  can be publicly obtained.
Stream Setback has been continually violated for years without state intervention in these affected areas.
We strongly believe that if the state had been up and doing in its responsibility, the impact of flooding would have been minimal.

Environmental Misuse

Our camera captured,  grazing is being been done on ornamental grass planted on road divider along Ladipo area of Agege Motor Way.

The landscape elements on this road divider have been left unattended to lately. We call on concerned Authority to please see to this.
Yours in Ideal environment.
