Ranking member on the parliament works and housing committee Vincent Oppong Asamoah has bemoaned the government failure to implement effective measures to curb flooding in Accra.
He contends that, the government has not adequately resourced the sector ministry to address the flooding situation.
His comment comes on the back of warnings from the Ghana Meteorological Agency that there will be more rains in the coming weeks.
Last week, some parts of Accra was flooded during a downpour. The rain which lasted for about four hours left its mark on areas like Kaneshie, the worst hit after the downpour. Some of the areas which were heavily affected are Kwame Nkrumah Circle, Spintex Road, Tetteh Quarshe, Fiesta Royal and Nsawam Road.
Speaking to Ahotor news, Vincent Oppong Asamoah urged people residing in flood prone areas to relocate.
