Ebrie Lagoon wasted

2.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

Wafro 662 reviews

The Ebrie lagoon stretches about 100 km’s parallel with the coastline it isn’t the same as it used to be. Completely polluted by the city sewers and constantly used as public toilets. The lagoon is completely wasted, e few years ago a chemical tanker cleaned and dumped its contents in the lagoon, several people were killed and many more became ill.
