Change is inevitable but transformation is a conscious thought.

Incredibly rustic thought process from a ‘lawmaker’

“Mr. President, spend your political capital. It is not meant to be preserved—it is meant to be spent on difficult reforms, unpopular decisions, and standards that come at a cost to enforce.”

— A concerned Ghanaian citizen has issued a heartfelt appeal to President John Dramani Mahama, urging him to use his political capital to make the tough and often unpopular decisions needed to address the country’s longstanding challenges.

In her message, she reminded the President of the confidence many Ghanaians have placed in his leadership, describing him as someone who understands the root causes of the nation’s problems and has a unique opportunity to pursue meaningful reforms without fear of political consequences.

This update should have done 4 things: acknowledge the human cost, reassure citizens that tangible help is underway, communicate immediate actions with clear responsibility, and outline how the country will be better prepared before the next crisis.

You’ve been President of Ghana for 7 out of the last 14 years.

That means you’ve been President for almost every other rainy season since 2012.

You were President during the June 3rd floods that claimed over 150 lives.

How have you still not figured out a solution?

Yesterday there was a WhatsApp screenshot of a lecturer insisting on students showing up to class despite the rains

We know some people braved the rain to go to work because they might have been scared they'd lose their jobs if they didn't show up.

This is a problem

Before the government uses the flooding as an opportunity to award shady contracts, we should account for the hundreds of millions of cedis and dollars already spent, including this and other payments to Zoomlion's sister company, Dredge Masters.

People no longer have time for performative theatrics.

They want results. Ordinary Ghanaians have been taken advantage of for far too long.

[Abeeku. @abeekuacquah]

But do you know what this truly means? NOT A SINGLE ACTION OR PLAN WAS IMPLEMENTED AFTER JUNE 3RD. 11 years later and nothing has changed. Nothing.

[KANI @KOJO_Cue]

Bro. All of your progress in life can be erased with just one downpour of rain. The scenes are heartbreaking.

[Authority Architect @Maukeni_]

‘Stay home, stay safe’ is not a plan when the home isn’t safe.
Ghana needs a national emergency system. Not tied to any party. Not activated by tragedy and abandoned by dry season.
Where is our emergency system?

[Seth Doe Esq @seth_doe22]

Ghana is a place where hybrid work practice is best for corporate workers. Maybe 3 days remote and 2 days in person respectively. The rains, the distance, the cost of transportation, the renting of expensive accommodation just to be close to work; it’s eating into salaries a lot.

[uncle lord @lordtee]

If e be election time like all political parties dey send you text message mention your family tree all for votes. Can’t even get NADMO to send a coordinated text blast to tell people to stay home and assure them of support.

[Manchester City @ManCity]

Back where he belongs 🩵

[Gary Al-Smith @garyalsmith]

More rains coming, per AccuWeather.

Might be a good thing to take a longer view of your plans for the whole day, and possibly tomorrow.

[miss forson @lydiaforson]

When they start demolishing, I don’t want to hear pim!

We all watched the videos of the Greater Accra Regional Minister going around, and people were screaming, cursing and resisting the exercise.

But we also need to hold the institutions responsible accountable. Their job is to ensure people don’t build in waterways and other prohibited areas in the first place.

There’s no way entire structures should go up without anyone noticing until it’s suddenly “too late.” If enforcement had happened when the first block was laid, many of these demolitions wouldn’t be necessary today.

This problem won’t go away until we take a serious stand on doing what’s right!

And it starts with the institutions that standby and watch things get this far.

I just witnessed a tearful reunion on my street.

Some grandparents came to recruit boys to help save their children and grandkids who were trapped a few houses from mine.

We were all cheering as the boys wadded through chest level water with kids on their shoulders to safety

[Sam Attah-Mensah @Sammens]

It's Monday, 29th June. It's been raining for the last 6 hours in Accra. Terrible flooding.
This has exposed the quality of our policy engineering for the last couple of decades.
We can't do the same things and expect different results. Faulty Policy Engineering to blame.

[Gary Al-Smith @garyalsmith]

Every year I say the same thing. Every year I get bashed. But I will say it anyway:

The democracy you people are practising (where every problem cannot be solved unless we take everyone's opinion and "rights") will not allow us to solve big ticket problems like the annual floods. You know it. I know it. Question is: are we willing to break protocol and fix it and damned the consequences?

As you're setting your own records, he is breaking your own records, setting his own records, and breaking his own records.

I might not haved lived in the times of Shakespeare, Aurelius, Alexander the Great or Napoleon - but it has been the honor of my life to call you my GOAT.
