Over seventy-five dead bodies have been retrieved at the Goil Filling Station at the Nkrumah Circle in Accra that caught fire during Wednesday’s torrential rains.
Accra is flooded following torrential rains that continued for several hours.
Hundreds of workers in the capital have been left stranded at their work places as the heavy downpour submerges the city. Most of the principal streets in Accra are flooded and unmotorable as commercial and private vehicles are trapped in the deluge which is above knee level. Most of the drivers have parked their vehicles on the inner and outer pavements to prevent their vehicles from being carried away by the flood. Tables, chairs and broken stalls of sellers could be seen floating on the submerged streets, especially on the Ring Road and Nkrumah Circle. Reports reaching Starrfmonline.com indicate that walls have collapsed at flood-prone areas like Awoshie, Santa Maria, Kwashiebu and Tabora and their surrounding areas and residents are struggling to evacuate their homes for safety. |
