Popular Comic actor in the popular Papa Ajasco TV series, Pa James, is currently not in a good mood as his house was seriously damaged by the heavy downpour yesterday.
According to his son Samuel Ajirebi who shared the story on his Instagram page, he said the situation has got him thinking if we still have a government in this country.
He wrote:
S E R I O U S L Y S A D RIGHT NOW ❗️❗️❗️ I get to think at times that “are we sure we have a government in this country?”. Look at what I met on going to visit my family today. A flooded house due to the overflowing canal behind our street. To make matters worse, no one was at home save my dad, so the old man and I had to be saving properties and scooping water out of the house!
This year makes it ten years of the repeated and consistent occurrence of this with severe damages done annually to properties, at times leading to temporary displacement! Letters have been written, tv appearances made, press releases written, still,l no significant step taken by the government to channel the overrunning Canal… This is not a sympathy plea for anything, but a call to The state and local government authorities of Lagos ( @akinwunmiambode and @jidesanwoolu ) Oke Odo LGA respectively to please wake up to your responsibility and stop making citizens suffer in neglect! We need Governmental intervention in Oke Isagun Community of Oke Odo LGA!
We lose properties! We lose rest whenever we see rain signs! Tonight is going to be a partial prayer moment for families because it must not rain tonight… No house for us to sleep in anymore!
This is sad and heartbreaking!
