The first major rain in 2022 in Ibadan recorded some losses due to the heavy wind that came with the rain.
At Challenge Area, a fence collapsed on some vehicles, while some parts of a hotel under construction at the Elewura Area of Challenge collapsed on the building beside it.
At Agbowo Area of Ibadan, Radio Nigeria correspondent, however, reports that some parts of the road linking the U.I main gate with Agbowo Express were flooded with refuse while residents struggled to evacuate them.
Radio Nigeria observed that the channelization project along the river separating Orogun and Agbowo Areas enhanced the free flow of the river that would have resulted in flooding in the past.
