Rainfall exposes drainage flaws at Kaneshie, environs
ACCRA, April 27, Ghanadot/GNA – A
three-hour downpour on Sunday rendered parts
of Kaneshie and its environs flooded while residents
pedestrians and motorists were marooned and waited patiently
for the floods to subside.
Many homes, petrol service stations, storage facilities and
the main Kaneshie market road, Obetsebi Lamptey circle and
the Odaw drainage were dangerous areas to tread as flood
waters rose to waist level .
When the Ghana News Agency’s photo journalists got there,
pedestrians and motorist were struggling to navigate the
little dry spots and least affected landscapes to reach
their various destinations.
Around the Kaneshie market area, market women, shoppers and
commuters had to run for cover whilst many from church
services had to struggle to join the nearest “trotro” buses
to whisk them away to safety.
