The Lagos state government has warned that more strong winds would accompany heavy rainfall this year as predicted by its in-house meteorologists.

The government therefore warns residents in the state to be more cautious and vigilant, as there were indications. The warning is coming a week after a heavy rainstorm destroyed properties across the state and killed a number of people.

The Commissioner for Environment, Mr Tunji Bello made this known on Wednesday, at a town hall meeting where he warned that the more violent rainstorm has been predicted for the year and he warned anyone who abuses the environment will be considered “an enemy of the state and would be treated as such.”
