RESIDENTS have not ceased to cry out over the endless flooding in Egbe-Idimu Local Council Development Area (LCDA) in Alimosho local council due to poor drainage systems, which have allegedly claimed the lives of commuters, residents and school-children.
The report first reached AlimoshoToday through the Double Title Chief of Idimu, Chief Sarumi of Idimu land.
The chief, while reporting the poor state of roads and drainages in Oke-Idimu area of Egbe-Idimu LCDA, bitterly lamented the death of a secondary school girl, Halimat, who was killed by the flood on her way to Olorunfunmi Junior Grammar School.
