Central News Agency (CNA Lagos, July 1, Comprehensive Foreign News) Nigeria's commercial capital, Lagos, has been severely flooded due to several hours of continuous heavy rainfall yesterday. The Nigerian meteorological agency has also warned of more rainfall in the coming days. According to AFP, Nigeria experiences heavy rainfall annually from May to November, often leading to dangerous floods.
