Some residents in the video could be heard saying people had climbed their rooftops to escape death.
Exposed!! Popular Abuja doctor revealed how men can naturally and permanently cure poor erection, quick ejaculation, small and shameful manhood without side effects. Even if you are hypertensive or diabetic . Stop the use of hard drugs for sex!! It kills!
The videos suggest people could have been trapped in their homes.
The rain began around dawn and continued to pound the city at 3pm when this report was being filed.
It started drizzling in some parts of the nation’s capital in the early hours until it grew into heavy downpour for many hours after most residents had gone to work.
A similar situation could have played out in the Gwagwalada and Bwari area council, which have a history of flooding in the city.
Trademore has a yearly history of flooding, with human casualties.
In 2021, at least three persons died in the estate from a flood disaster.
To mitigate the impact of flood, the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) demolished 30 houses in the estate in 2023.
