Nigerian coastal community reels from ocean surge that swept away

Fishermen attempt to move a boat away from the shoreline in Itamarun, one of the coastal communities where villages have been affected by ocean surge, in Nigeria July 8, 2025. The coastal communities have been severely affected by shoreline erosion, which locals attribute to dredging activities along the Ibeju-Lekki coastline. REUTERS/Sodiq Adelakun
