So you think what flood victims need is your empty promise? Desperation paaa bi this? I thought you would go with relieving items to help these victims but no. As usual of a Ghanaian politician, promise as much as you can to prove that you care. Lord have mercy!!!
A beg wai... no serious mind will vote for such a concert man. Ayawaso West, we mean business that is why will always vote for serious men and women and not Jokers .
The answer is an interconnected and well drained Accra. Plots should be properly serviced with roads and gutters before land is sold. Don't build on water ways, and building plans must be approved. Property rates should be used to support development. It boils down to land management, many in Accra do not have indentures bcos of chiefs to enable them get proper permits with inspections to ensure the right things are done. It is a horrible circus. In Canada, after a heavy hurricane, I was surprised to see the roads were very dry within an hour of so much water because of good drains. Even that the Air force and Navy were on emergency stand by to save lives
Ahhhhhh, who said that? Dumelo? This will NEVER win you elections? Go and sleep!
Does he think we are on set shooting illusions anaa? anukwa!! Get serious
When Dr. K.A Busia attempted constructing underground storm water drainage systemsin Ghana beginning with Accra, the opposition then convinced some Ghanaians that he was indirectly diverting the sea water to Kumasi in Ashanti . Some Ghanaians fell for the trickery of the opposition. This explains the poor nature of our drainage systems 978155
Hahahahaha there they go again with empty promises. As an MP you have no clout to change anything!! All you can do is to lobby the finance minister to hopefully add your constituency challenges to the long list of other challenges from other constituencies. Will you have the courage to pull down houses that are wrongly sited if even it belongs to a member of your party or a financier of your party? Have you worked out how much it will cost to resolve the problem and compared it with other pressing issues? The problems of Ghana are huge and the rot started from as far back the days of independence therefore it will take a long time to resolve most of the problems as well as a change in the mindset and attitudes of the Ghanaian. Empty promises rather makes people distrustful in the long run.
MR ACTOR ARE YOU SAYING AFTER YOU HAD BECOME AN MP BEFORE THE FLOODING WILL BE A THING OF THE PAST? MASTER BE SERIOUS. BUT WHEN IS THAT GOING TO HAPPEN? IF YOU CAN SEE A PORTRUDING TREE ENTERING INTO AN EYE YET SAID NO, YOU WILL NOT REMOVE IT UNTILL IT ENTERS INTO AN INNOCENT EYE. THERE IS A VISIBLE PROBLEM WHICH REQUIRES URGENT ATTENTION AND YOU CAN. KINDLY HELP NOW THAN UNTILL YOU BECOME AN MP
I am npp, but politics aside, this gentleman is serious. He means business. I will vote nana and vote for dumelo as my MP. The woman is no where to be found in this flood situation. She is always complaining of sickness. She was minding her business and was forced to stand. Chief kuffour could have done better.
