Accra floods caused by choked gutters; 'It's really sad' - AMA

Head of Public Affairs at the Accra Metropolitan Assembly [AMA], Gilbert Nii Ankrah says recent floods across the city are caused by mere negligence of the citizenry.

According to him, “major” cause of the floods in Accra is caused by filth – something he accused the citizens of.

“It’s really sad. This is a major problem we [AMA] are worried about,” he said in an interview with NEAT FM’s morning show ‘Ghana Montie’.

Perennial flooding that occurs in some parts of the city has been a major problem yet to be solved by any government.

Recent downpours have seen the city flooded and rending many homeless.
