Lambaguhon Area was the first point of impact of the rampaging flood caused by typhoon Sendong.

A group of 15 kindhearted volunteers led by Jeddy Andam from One for Iligan Movement initiated by Iligan Bloggers Society, Inc. went to Purok Adelfa in Lambaguhon Area to give hot arroz caldo, sleeping matte and blanket to about 70 people.

Down ahead was once a house of the Dayaganon family of eight people, seven of them died, one survived, an 11 year old boy.

There were about 40 houses used to stand here, only a quarter remained. During the flooding, only 5 people chose to stay, while the rest fled Purok Adelfa.
