NIGERIA. Lagos, Shomolu. Palm Groove. 04 December 2022. Palm Groove road in Shomolu LGA. The Local Government Area of Shomolu is particularly affected by overcrowding and poor sanitary infrastructures. With Nigerian population expected to double in the next two decades, the situation should not change any time soon. While maternal mortality dropped in the last years, natality rate remains high (2020: 5,2 children/women, World Bank), especially teenage pregnancy).
