Hundreds of residents were on Sunday afternoon sacked from their homes with vehicles submerged after flash floods affected Ekoro, Ajisebiara-Mecca, Akowonjo, Oko Oba and Egbeda areas of Lagos State.
Many canals overflowed, causing several electric poles to fall, raising fears of possible electrocution.
The rains started around 1:20pm while worshippers were returning from church and other residents going about their businesses.
It was gathered that some residents returned to their homes only to find water everywhere.
Some of the residents were said to have hurriedly moved their wards to safety while others battled to salvage their appliances already swimming in water.
