Shatta Wale offers help, Kwadwo Sheldon declines

After Kwadwo Sheldon's post showing the damage of Sunday's rains to his apartment, he received offers from some concerned citizens, including Ghanaian musician Shatta Wale.

The dancehall star asked him to reach out in case he needed any support, but this was taken the wrong way by the YouTuber, who told him to invest in taking care of his mother instead.

We Dey here wey your old girl come dey chat say she no get place sleep but you dey want to help who? GTFOH!" he wrote.

Over 3,000 people affected

3,000 individuals at Odawna Sahara in the Greater Accra Region have been affected by flooding as a result of Sunday's heavy downpour, the National Disaster Management Organisation (NADMO) has confirmed.

In an interview with Joy News, the Director of NADMO for the Korle Klottey Municipal Assembly, Hendrick Noble Kinnah, blamed the havoc caused by the rains in part on poor waste disposal practices.

Heavy rainfall expected

The Ghana Meteorological Agency (GMet) has also warned that more rain is expected in June 2025.

In an interview with TV3 on May 19, Frederick Cudjoe, a meteorologist with the Central Analysis and Forecast Office of GMet, disclosed that the country is gradually entering the peak of the rainfall season.

He disclosed that, based on the agency’s assessment, more rain is expected in the eastern part of the country, especially between April and June this year.

He urged authorities and residents to begin desilting gutters and clearing structures in waterways.

AMA to embark on decongestion exercise

The Accra Metropolitan Assembly (AMA), in partnership with the Korle Klottey Municipal Assembly, will also start a major decongestion exercise in Accra’s Central Business District (CBD) today, Tuesday, May 20, 2025.

The decongestion exercise forms part of efforts to improve sanitation in the nation’s capital.
