Unidentified green plants are seen on the river while the water body has given way.
The Kara cattle market community under
the bridge along the Lagos-Ibadan expressway has become a Mecca of some
sort with residents of the community and passers-by trooping to see the
dried section of the river which once provided water for the Kara cattle
and ram market.
Traffic in bound Lagos slowed down and Road Safety officials tried to make light the gridlock.

There were initial suspicion that this
could be water hyacinth but the surface of what used to be the flowing
river hard become a firm ground.
Some people were seen testing the
solidity of the green that has taken over the waterway by walking across
the river and some found it a ready-made recreation ground.
Surprisingly, on the other side of the Kara Bridge, the river was seen flowing freely.
According to our source:
i have not seen anything like this in my life!!! there is water on the other end of the bridge and here is as dry as if water as never touched here.
Its a shock even in this rainy season!!!
Environmentalists have, however, warned
that residents keep off the blocked channel for the risks of it opening
up unexpectedly and advised relevant authorities find a means of
clearing the plants.
