This is how it should always be, whether the communicating vessels are also clean.

In 2026 we should find better ways of doing away with open gutters in our bit towns and cities for crying out loud!!!

👍

@KOBBYYTAKYI Neat. We did this ourselves; we didn’t wait for anyone.

All those rainfalls from Akuapem come to Accra. You’re living on a mountain, so stop that.

Ignorance. The water at Akuapem runs down to Accra.

When you say it they’ll come and tell you leadership should enforce cleanliness. So you the adult running your home or shop can’t see your gutters need to be clean? Smh

Just like where I’m from, Akosombo. Sometimes too I think law enforcement should be bold enough to prosecute individuals found guilty of littering and pollution. We tend to look away when people litter describing it has a minor offense, until disaster.

Can you tell us how Italians handle their drainage system and if we can employ same method in Ghana?

In addition, such communication vessels have sense of direction suchlike sewer system to carry the water and treat it so it can be discharged into hydroelectric or other systems. I remember 2004 when my colleagues and I established water and sanitation int. Organisation one of our Swedish funders visited us and went to Accra with him, his first comment upon seeing this open drains he said ‘Ghana has no infrastructure’. Everyday he said to me, ‘no infrastructure’. At the time, I laugh over it. But now I know and understood the implication for poverty and underdevelopment!

Thank you for sharing my video Sir. Akuapem is a peaceful and beautiful place with many tourist attractions, cool weather, and breathtaking views. I warmly invite you to visit Akuapem and experience its unique beauty and hospitality for yourself.

A little bit inaccurate. The accra flood was suspected to be accumulated water from various parts of the region, and also the akuapim mountain range, all trying to enter the sea True. waste in our gutters are not helping. But proper remapping of our drainage system is necessary

1. This means the problem is NOT the people DIRECTLY, but the government and the governance system The same Ghanaians live in Accra as on the Akuapem mountains What folk dont know is, as recently as the 70s and early 80s, Akuapems banished citizens who dirtied the environment..

Almost 80% gutters in Ghana 🇬🇭 are not deep and there are no slop they just build it just like that and leave it

Water flow can be controlled We need proper drainage system connections in Accra

Here is Akuapem, discipline dey here, people will beat you like a thief if you leave a bucket of refuse anywhere you like 👍

Why are roads so often constructed without sidewalks? Even when drainage gutters are included, they're frequently left uncovered(makes it easy for people to dump in em). If those gutters were properly covered, they could double as safe sidewalks for pedestrians.

Nsuo no ba Accra 😂😂

Yes, if we even must keep them as open-drains. But the greatest question is; "To which end is it flowing?"

But please cover it to prevent blockage from rubbish.

I personally think our drains should be covered.

Love how educative you are with your page

The commentary is on point ✌️

Majority of akuapen is tarred with less sand… majority of the flooded areas come with sand which tends to block the drainage

Okuapeman is the neatest place in Ghana

You are missing the point , this be few drop p water

At this point the mountain [Akuapem] runoff is what's coming to Accra nò

This is not Accra. @consoleghana the trash thing is done by the GA’s if you want me to say it loud and clear. Everyone in Ghana knows this. Watch the comments, they’re the ones who insults

The ga people no go agree make Accra Dey so ooo

Akuapim is siting on high level. Water runs down to Accra.

Well the people needs to keep up with it and clean after themselves

If wanna stay wanna hometown,Accra will forever be clean , everybody wakes up. I’m coming to Accra.

@BigDaddyCee7 Well done guys

Akuapim is on a highland, Accra is in a valley. These are two different terrains

Hmmm… chairman, I heard some are saying we should move the capital out (which would make any difference) btw Maybe we should move it to Akwapim and see something Our crisis is human x engineering
