The Ghana Meteorological Agency (GMeT) has warned Ghanaians of more rains across both coastal and inland areas in the coming days.
According to the GmeT, residents must be alert and stay away from flood-prone communities.
Joseph Tetteh Portuphy, the Deputy Director in charge of Forecasting at GmeT, explains that further rains are expected.
He cautioned that places already saturated trigger flooding in vulnerable communities.
Speaking to Citi News, the Deputy Director in charge of Forecasting at GmeT stated, “Over the coast and inland areas… but for us on the eastern coast, since it is a system that is passing, later in the day it will come down. Places are already flooded. Any little rain that comes again will flood the places. So we should be cautious and avoid places that are already saturated and already flooded”.
“We should also make sure that they stay tuned to the weather information. As I said, we are still in June. And until we get out of June, we should expect more of these rains to come,” he added.
In other news, Dennis Miracles Aboagye, the Director of Communications for the Bawumia Campaign Team, has said the John Mahama government has no clear-cut roadmap to solve the Accra floods.
The NPP communicator disclosed that Mahama, who has been president before, experienced the most devastating flood disasters this country has seen in its history.
He argued that after the June 3 disaster, Mahama set up a committee, indicating that he was re-engineering Accra, but nothing happened.
Speaking on JoyNews’ AM Show on Monday, Dennis Miracles Aboagye explained, “A country entrusts its resources, freedoms, and rights to a select few so that they can guide the people and lead them towards prosperity, growth, and safety”.
“So when the leaders we have given that responsibility are merely lamenting to us, it becomes a serious problem.”
“They have failed to tell the people of this country what their roadmap is in solving flooding in Accra. A clear-cut roadmap. We are in a hopeless situation. This government should not pretend as if they just came into office and all of a sudden they are realising how Accra is,” he stated.
Dennis Miracles Aboagye added, “Our president has been president before. In fact, one of the most devastating flood disasters this country has seen in its history happened under his presidency during his first term”.
“His Excellency John Dramani Mahama, immediately after the June 3 disaster, set up a committee. In fact, he indicated that he was re-engineering Accra. What happened?” he asked.
He further added, “One of the reasons why a lot of Ghanaians went to vote for His Excellency John Dramani Mahama was because they felt that he would have learned something from the experience he had in the past”.
Eight years in opposition, you come into office with experience. In fact, His Excellency said during the campaign period that we want experience. It was one of his mantras, and a lot of people bought into it.
People were very hopeful. A 1.7 million vote difference speaks a lot. It is a huge mandate”, he observed.
“A president that some people believed in and voted for on the back of your experience, you spend one and a half years out of your few years in office identifying hotspots. That is where the problem is”, he said.
“Tell the people what your roadmap is in ensuring that, moving forward, when it rains for 30 minutes, they will be able to get to their homes. That’s what they want to hear”, he stressed.
Meanwhile, the Greater Accra Regional Minister, Linda Ocloo, has shockingly claimed that she has tackled flooding in the Greater Accra Region.
Linda Ocloo, speaking in an interview with Asaase Radio, claimed that she had already tackled the Accra flooding long before the flooding began.
According to Linda Ocloo, she did a lot of demolition at the Ramsar site, which led to a lot of people hating him.
Speaking on Asaase Radio, Linda Ocloo stated, “I have tackled flooding within the Greater Accra Region. I tackled this way back before we started experiencing this flooding in Greater Accra.
I have also tackled issues about flooding, knowing very well that some of the buildings at Ramsar sites will be affected when it rains. I went on, and I did a lot of demolition, and you could see I have a lot of people who hate me because of this demolition exercise”.
A resident of East Legon Hills has shared a distressing account of the impact of today's heavy downpour, revealing that flooding in her area has left her and her daughter stranded at home.
