disu

Disu, also known as Disu Island, is a small island located off the coast of Nigeria. It is situated in the Lagos Lagoon, a large body of water that separates the island from the mainland of Lagos State. The island is part of the Eti-Osa Local Government Area. Historically, Disu Island has been a traditional fishing community. Its geography is characterized by its low-lying terrain and proximity to the water.

The population of Disu is primarily engaged in fishing and related activities, though there has been some growth in residential development. Access to the island is mainly by boat, as there are no bridges connecting it directly to the mainland. This can make transportation and access to services a challenge for the residents. Like many coastal communities, Disu faces environmental concerns related to pollution and the impacts of climate change, such as rising sea levels. Despite these challenges, the island remains an important part of the local socio-economic fabric. Efforts have been made by local authorities and communities to improve infrastructure and living conditions on the island, focusing on areas like sanitation, power supply, and access to clean water.
