Cape Coast and Accra flood again after heavy rains

1st October, 2021
The rains started around 10 pm on September 30 and continued to the morning of October 1st.
Many parts of the country have experienced heavy rainfall with some regions enduring up to 6-hours of the downpour on Friday, October 1.
The rains broke down walls, entered people's houses, and destroyed properties. Hostels on the Campus of the University of Cape Coast got flooded and students who had exams had difficulties getting to their venues. This is not new as it happens most times it rains on the University Campus. In a short interview with some students and members of the community, this issue is a course by the lack of drainage systems by the house and hostel owners and please with the appropriate authorities to take action and solve this issue before it gets worse.
Outside the university campus, the cape coast teaching hospital was not spared with rains and dead plants making their way into the Covid19 treatment center and other wards leaving patients on admission stranded while health personnel struggle to attend to them.
Roads have been rendered impassable with their resultant heavy traffic in the capital, Accra.
The areas affected include Kaneshie First Light, Dansoman Junction among other adjoining areas. Some schools affected by the flood have been forced to shut down.
