Perhaps you\u2019ve seen the #Accrafloods pictures, the conclusive proof that our beloved city is managed by incompetents and is unworthy to be called a capital city.<\/p>\n
Barely a week after the Metropolitan Chief Executive [MCE] of Accra, Oko Vanerpuije, President John Dramani Mahama and religious and traditional leaders gathered to remember victims of the June 3 flood and fire that killed more than 150 Ghanaians and destroyed property worth thousands of cedis in Accra, the entire city was submerged after a few hours of rainfall.<\/p>\n
Ahead of that ceremony, the MCE, Oko Vanderpuije declared at a presser that the city of Accra will never see such floods again. His words were: \u201cThat is my assurance to the people of Accra and indeed the whole nation that the people\u2019s capital is ever safe than before.\u201d<\/p>\n
