Two people were today feared dead amid rainfall, which caused heavy flooding at the Trademore Estate in Lugbe along the Nnamdi Azikiwe Airport Road.

 

The estate, which is home to several civil servants and other categories of people has been perennially affected by flooding.

 

A resident of the area who made a video of the flood could be heard calling on the Federal Government and the Federal Capital Territory FCT Minister, NYESOM WIKE, for help, adding that two people had been swept away by the flood.
