Tomorrow over 100,000 Ghanaians in the Greater Accra region will wake up before 6am to trek early to the junction or lorry station to queue for a bus to take them as close to their work destinations as possible. Some are coming from recently flooded homes and others will have to battle jumping over mud and puddles or else have stained shoes.

Our minister will be sleeping as she is duly tired from carrying all the heavy weight of her award as best performing regional minister in Ghana.

I’ve observed three cycles in every new government we get.

First phase is when they are new and have some goodwill. In this phase, they try to protect this goodwill for as long as they can so they try to do as many seemingly nice things in the interest of citizens and pander a lot to populist sentiments.

Phase 2 is when scandals start brewing and the realities of the country’s foundational shortcomings start getting out of hand. The goodwill starts wearing off, and so they start trying too hard to protect the goodwill which sometimes leads to unnecessary mistakes.

Phase 3 which is the phase I dread the most is when shit truly hits the fan, and they know they’ve lost all the goodwill. And so they shamelessly loot and loot because what else is there to lose.

@n_friggo Right after the rains, sellers will push land deals, and people who don't know better will rush to buy. We never learn

@enokay69 Politicians would fear us if we formed a Neutral group that cant be bought with positions, money or promises. The difference between our two great political parties is "Time". None of them is worth defending

@realKenAgyapong Are we still talking about flooding here? I'm lost

[Jay Sam @britty_sam]

@barkervogues Yet, our minister has chosen a non-confrontational stance. Hehe. Their businesses here should offer those 1000 people repatriated employment. That's the bare minimum

[Nana B. @koboateng]

@Maukeni_ The bar is so low it shocks me how this government is still finding ways to lower it

[FAYALORRRD @faya_lorrrd]

We appointed nation leaders not knowing all along they wanted to be celebrities so bad.
Award shows for ministers?
Who the fuck do they think they are?

[Quame Jnr @quame_jnr1]

The more time I spend here, the angrier I get.
The capital city floods whenever it rains. Citizens are stranded daily because of transportation. Water bodies are being destroyed by galamsey. Yet the ministers responsible for these sectors are being celebrated as top performers.

[Jay Sam @britty_sam]

@realKenAgyapong Humans, by nature, are undisciplined. That’s why we document laws and elect sensible leaders to strictly enforce them. The question is, are the leaders strictly enforcing the laws or playing politics with them? JJ’s kalabule was a painful exercise, but it yielded good results.

If it is confirmed BIG EVENTS GHANA informed attendees to sponsor for 50,000 GHS or buy a table for 25,000 GHS, the President should institute an investigation and every state head or Minister/Deputy who paid justify or get sacked

Governance is serious business not for Jokers

[Jay Sam @britty_sam]

@MartinaMensah1 Exactly. We are hypocrites. It is a must to retaliate

[Jay Sam @britty_sam]

@koboateng I wish we could form a neutral group and make it so strong that politicians would have no option but to fear us because we are the majority. I wish we could put greed aside and think of real change. A bad leader should know no peace. Amen.

Ghana flooding is not a new problem. We’ve been talking about flooding for decades yet every rainy season homes flood, roads flood, businesses suffer, and lives are sometimes lost.

The money too has not been small.

Government said GH¢450 million had been spent on flood control since 2018. The World Bank also gave Ghana $200 million for GARID, then added another $150,000,00 (one hundred and fifty million dollars)

GARID is the Greater Accra Resilient and Integrated Development Project. In simple terms, it is a big Accra flood-control and sanitation project, especially around the Odaw River Basin.

So that is GH¢450m plus $350 million connected to flood prevention.

If hundreds of millions have gone into flood control and Accra is still flooding badly in 2026, what exactly did we get for the money?
