About this trap
Alimosho floods quickly. NEMA named it among the Lagos areas at risk of flash floods in its 2026 outlook, and after heavy rain in September 2025 streets in Shasha-Bameke and Egbeda were inundated, with blocked drains part of the cause. Locals check the sky before leaving, stay off low side streets during and just after a downpour, and wait for water to recede instead of wading through it. Keep your phone and documents in a waterproof pouch from April to October.
