Social media users have shared photos of parts of the Mainland area of Lagos, including Somolu, Isolo, and Surulere flooded on Saturday morning.
The flood has forced residents to stay in their homes, unable to cast their votes in the Local Government Chairmanship elections.
See the photos and videos below:

For those mocking Island/Lekki dwellers for floods, my neighbours in Isolo, Mainland have been flooded out of their homes. Lost everything.
