The residents of Ga Central Municipality have marched in protest against the recurring flooding that has plagued the community for years. They argue that the issue has been exacerbated by inadequate and poorly maintained drainage systems, leading to property destruction, family displacement, and significant losses during heavy rains.
The protesters plan to deliver a petition to the Ga Central Municipal Assembly, urging the assembly to take immediate action to tackle the municipality's ongoing drainage issues. They are also urging the government and relevant authorities to rehabilitate, expand, and improve the existing drainage network to mitigate the risk of flooding and safeguard lives and property.
The residents maintain that they need tangible action, not just empty promises, as flooding continues to pose a persistent threat to their communities. They are therefore demanding a comprehensive and lasting solution to their drainage woes to prevent further destruction during intense downpours.
