“There was a torrential downpour on Monday evening and again on Wednesday night, which led to flooding and some buildings submerged in water, forcing residents to temporarily flee their homes, one of the affected residents Mr Blessing Oladele said.
Oladele told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Ado Ekiti on Thursday that the rainfall led to the Elemi stream overflowing its banks, which resulted in fast-flowing flood that submerged some houses in the area.
“It affected about ten buildings and we would have recorded casualties , but for the fact that we quickly ran out of our buildings with our wives and children to seek refuge in safe neighbouring houses.
