A lady has shared her frightening experience after getting trapped in floodwaters in Lagos, warning people against assuming such situations could never happen to them.
The Terrifying Ordeal
According to her, she was already close to her destination after entering a keke (tricycle) when the flooding suddenly worsened and the vehicle stopped in the middle of the water, leaving her with no easy way out.
She said her biggest fear was electrocution, while people around also warned about holes in the water, forcing her to carefully follow people who looked familiar with the route.
No Easy Way Out
Reacting to comments from people saying they would have turned back, she said life sometimes leaves people with no choice, adding that even cars could break down in such conditions. She, however, vowed never to visit Lagos Island during rainy season again.
The incident serves as a stark reminder of the dangers posed by flooding in Lagos, especially during the rainy season, and the importance of heeding weather warnings.
