People in authority should check where and from whom owners of those lands bought them. Rev. Agyin Asare is not the commander he is speaking out of pain I think. otherwise that will bring problems.

The blood of the innocent will never be washed away so these feeble bullshit attempts to shift the blame will never fly. Bull shit will kill you one day Mr Finance minister, that's what happens when you surround yourself with pepeni toilet carriers all day. How many projects have you and your cronies frustrated so that you can collect bribe money in advance ? In this particular case you are talking about the Conti group who paid up but what about the rest who didnt ? We know about the high rise project which included sewage and drainage systems for much of Accra and didnt cause debt or should we mention the railway project which also have the same together with optical cables and other infrastructure . We are aware of at least 4 other projects that would have solved this problem but under this NDC corrupt govt will never see the light of day . Yes we told you we have gathered evidence of your wickedness and cruelty together with your Anti Akan agenda and plan to release these facts to the media 2 to 3 months before the elections globally so when the time comes none of you will have anywhere to hide . Yes we have all the documents and data .We shall not only remove you from there but make sure you all go to jail . Ass for JJ we shall lynch him and hang him by his balls for all to see as he has no respect for his betters and talks shit about murdered mills .this ayigbe sorry ass attempt to back track on his stupid statements , some one should tell him stupidity is not considered constructive criticisms but is simple skinpain . Mils will always be the better man because he is a Fanti and Akan deep thinker and intellectual and JJ nothing but a yes sir massa bugu buga retarded idiot bastard. Bad luck and pestilence will be on our heads until we get rid of this pepeni/ayigbe menace

You can pull down all the house and structure in Accra and have no impact. The problem in that there are no proper drainage systems in Accra and a terrible road network. Pulling filling stations where huge open gutters predominate that can swallow cars the all your macho, water wash attempts to pacify will fail. Find money to high the best non corrupt engineers and build a proper drainage system. Military style knee jerk reactions are not what we need. We need the best brains to got to work

This disasters is problem to the country and solutions is needed at this time. Former President Rawlings has spoken with his little solution , so is Mr. Nduom and President Mahama, they all suggested that, the structures around the waterways must be demolish . So , my question is, where is Nana Akanfuo Binaddo Buhari? When is he coming out with his ideas? is the demolishing going to affect Nana and his Ashanti/Akyem tribal Npp party's vote in 2016? is Nana Binaddo scaring that the demolishing is going to affect his tribes men and women more so he Nana intentionally quiet over this serious matter bedeviled the Nations that he Nana wanted to rule? when NANA BINADDO will open his mouth and talk? we live to see 2016.

People of La Dadekotopon, redeem your good name by VOTING OUT THIS MISCREANT CALLED AMASA NAMOALE, and send a very decent person who represents and yearns to meet your goals and aspirations.

We have to improve our drainage systems and not demolish houses! Haven `t you heard about Palm Islands? These are houses built on lands retrieved from the sea.There is no overflooding due to very good drainage .Floods occur on lands without houses.What is the sense in demolishing houses?We have overflooding here in Europe too but no houses are pulled down.The drainage systems get upgraded and this is what we have to do.Not more than a year ago, Texas was overflooded. Were houses demolished? No, because that isn`t the solution. It is only good drainage that can solve such problems.

Hi,
May I say that the problem is not to do with people building in water ways.It is to do with lack of proper drainage system. The AMA must embark on projects of constructing the drainage system and conserving the water with proper underground reservoirs. this is called water harvesting. what the government must do is source the loan and bring in a company like British water company 'Thames Water'to advise them to get it done. GHANA must wake up it is about time.May I say again the problem is not the buildings. The minister must stop the demolitions.

Look at this stupid so called bishop joining this cliché where city and central governments run to anytime there is flooding. How many houses in Accra have been built on waterways? The problem is simply authorities failure to provide infrastructure, that is, proper and adequate drainage, period! Houses on waterways is a fine way of hearding their inefficiencies and ineffectiveness.

This is not about buildings on waterways. It is about a drainage system. It doesn't have anything to do with waterways at all.
Are we suggesting that, by demolishing buildings on waterways, there will be no drains to carry the rain water from the floods and the flood water would just be flowing on the so-called waterways to wherever it needs to go?
It is about drains and has always been about a drainage system and the subtle attempt to make it about people building on waterways being the cause shows an egregious failure of leadership further compounded by the fact that, leadership is lacking in the institutions that have been tasked with issuing the right permits for planned and proper construction.
It is not about buildings on waterways. It is about the drainage system which does not exist.
If the so-called leaders were to have the ability, just any ability to think and plan, they would have constructed the underground drainage system what they call sewers first, before any surface construction.
Flood waters cannot be flowing on waterways without drains most especially in a city. On the hillside in less crowded and further flung areas away from sprawling urban centers and communities, one can talk about waterways and not in sprawling urban centers which are unplanned with no drainage system.

The man has proffered a solution instead of behaving like some pastors and catholic bishops conference who just blamed the president and stopped short of adding anything constructive. The suggestions he made must be considered on merit and positives taken out of it. He called for the prosecution of those giving out the lands and the demolition of the buildings. It makes sense. The people insulting him are the ones who have built on waterways and are scared their houses will be pulled down. Be prepared because they will be pulled down no matter what they do.

And then finally, he said, "And if I had all the Bulldozer in the world, I'd take it and Demolish some buildings on the waterways and throw it into the river."

To put up a building in Accra one must go through approval process by paying several fees to different departments inclusively, Lands, Town & Country Planning, etc. I hope this Bishop knew about it. Where is "Accra master plan"? Check the approved drawings for those areas and see whose autographs authorized them to build in the water-ways. This Bishop and others must defined themselves intellectuality and intelligent enough to know and tell the truth. The government is too corrupt they only care about money for themselves.

I feel sad with all the engineers we have in our country, the only solution to the annual flood we have been experiencing in Accra most is demolition. to me that's lazy mans engineering advice. yes people might have made mistake in putting up buildings in water ways but can't those people be fined and the town n country planning think of finding alternative way of creating channels for water during raining seasons. I get a little angry when the only solution our engineers can proposed is demolition. we seem to forget what one goes through if you want to do the correct thing, just apply for a building permit and its like you've done what is not permitted . the frustration and time wasting you will GI through unless you pay bribe ant the same time price of materials and labour are rising up each day. Mr. president , instead of demolition our districts and municipal s should be replanned and the construction of drainage taken serious.

You all think about yourselves. For the demolition i do i derstand you but that will be too harsh. Those AMA officials should not have allowed them to put up those structures. The whole country is in a mess.

We sympathise with all those affected by the flooding, but I personally feel the problem is largely to planning authorities and the departments dealing with that office given planning rights and permission for people to build.I'm sure there are SURVEYORS with the correct qualifications to determine the water plains. Surprisingly the have not been mentioned.

I agree with the pastor,Mahama has to be talked to.His mentality about governance is bad, why should we sympathize with law breakers? If so them we should do same for arm robbers and rapeist,Dan Abodakpi was paddon for stealing,Tsatsu was freed from jail all because they re too rich to be imprisoned but the ordinary man ll be made to serve his or her full sentence, other re thrown in remand without being heard, we re paying for the wrongs and injustice againt the
innocent.

Typical Ghanaian attitude.Just demolish without any plans in place to accommodate affected households, to put them in the Streets.A 4th World Country indeed!

This is not insulting each other over pastors and the clergy but rather we should find solutions to the problem.my heart goes out to those who lost their dearest ones,may God keep them safe for us.1)where is the monies earmarked for greater Accra's drainage projects?2)why was the money not released for that purpose?why are our leaders greedy like that?God is watching! Those culprits should be very careful.A young boy saw it in a dream,told them(Ghanaians)but refused to listen because he was a minor but we should be careful because more death is on the way said that little boy!Ireat my case.go to facebook!!

I SINCERELY EXPRESS M CONDOLENCE TO THE VICTIMS AND FAMILIES. I STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT WHAT PAST GOVERNMENT FAILED T DO IS IGNITING RSESULT. DISATER COME WEN THE GOVERNMENT IS UNPREPARED. MY QUESTION IS, IS GHANA PREPARED TO HANDLE DISASTER.IS FILW SERVICE EQUIPED WITH ALL NECESSARY EQUIPMENT TO HANDLE DISASTER.GREEDINES IS A SIN IN THE EYES OF GOD. RICH PEOPLE IN GHANA DOSENT HELP THE POOR. IS TIME FOR THE RICH TO STEP IN TO IMPROVE GHANA. BORROWING FROM INTRNATIONAL BODIES BRING IN MORE DEBT. ITS TIME TO HELP.INDIVIDUALS ARE RICH IN GHANA BUT THEY DONT D NOTHNG TO GHANA. ONE ERSON CAN TAKE GHANA'S PROBLEM AND FIX IT.IF THE GOVERNMENT IS NOT DOING, THE WELTHY PEOPLE N GHANA SHOULD STEP IN TO HELP IN OTHER TO BRING AWARENESS TO THE GOVERMENT.. PALIAMENT WAKE UP AND ACT NOW. NKRUMAH WE MISS U. GANAIANS HOULD FOREGET POLITICAL PARTIES AND USSEHER IN TO HELP. I BELIEVE THERE SHLD BE A REFERENDUM IN GHANA. THINGS ARE GOING POORLY IN GHANA. ALL PASTERS AND PROPHET SHOULD SUSPEND THEI TRIP ABROAD AND CALL FOR NATIONL FAST. MAY BE GOD WILL HEAR THEIR CRY AND REDEEM GHANA.ITS TIME
