Enough of this nonsense of a short man. The average height of the Ghanaian is 5 feet plus. Azumah Nelson who achieved so much for Ghana is a very short man. Abedi Pele is a short man also.Where were the tallers ? At the global level Napoleon, Queen Victoria, Queen Elizabeth II, Mike Tyson etc were all short people and yet achieved so much for their country, where where the tallers? You call Ashantis short but they achieved so much in history and still achieving even more than the 'tallers'. Those who call Nana Addo short are the typical Ghanaians who look malnourished - kwashiokor !

I thought they sweep the streets each morning. But you don't see them doing that. 3yrs ago ti was Zoom Lion who was doing that. Each dawn you will see women dressed in their Zoom Lion clothes sweeping and cleaning the streets. After the streets were neat during all this time Zoom Lion was there. Now the Zoom Lion people stopped sweeping and I was told the have been stopped by officials. Now it is ASADU who is taking the bin from people's house front when it use to be Zoom Lion.
What is all this nonsense?

I don't know why people should pay tax to AMA. Is it because they think they owe the Greater Accra Region?

The resident of flooding at Mallam told XYZ News that the flooding happens every year and it is as if the government is not interested to solve the problem permanently.

FUNNY SHIT

This government has no solution to this flooding so we should not raise the issue.

Acquah,sometimes I'm amazed at your reasoning! So you think AMONG other causes,the NO PLANNING+SITING of MANY BUILDINGS in ACCRA doesn't contribute to the water NOT ABLE TO FLOW?? You see,if in Passau the average rainfall is 50lit/m2 and ALL OF A SUDDEN you have 300lit/m2,do you think the SEWAGE can transport all during the SAME period of time ?? Man, DON'T COMMENT on every topic IF you have NO CLUE as to what is RELEVANT!!!

it is not about government doing something but rather people changing their behavior of using our gutters as refuse damp and stopping building on water ways.

Vanderpuije has not got the vision and love for the city than he has for money.

He has failed in all aspects when it comes to decongestion,flood,fire,sanitation just to name a few.

He must go!

God is wonderful. We cry for water and when it falls, we don't know how to collect and store it for at least few days or so. Are we just waiting to be fed all the time and make no effort to be innovative?. We don't want to farm or grow our own vegetables in our backyards or buy them cheaper from the country sides instead we yearn for chicken and fried rice, spend our leisure time just bathing in the sun at the beach or spending our little earnings on imported goods. The attitude must change. We must help ourselves and seriously, too much of waiting to be fed by the government or society should be a past thing.

If it were to be about gay issue, every stupid Ghanaian would have commented, but important issues such as this and there's not much attention, Ghana is really backwards
