Part of Accra submerged, many trapped in homes following hours of torrential rains

Hundreds of residents in some parts of the capital city, Accra, are counting their losses as their homes got flooded as a result of Monday night’s downpour.

Areas such as Taifa, Dome, Kaneshie, Tema, among others, were flooded forcing some residents to seek shelter on top of their buildings.

Hundreds of people we understand have been trapped in their homes with several others getting stuck on their way to safety.

Sources say all efforts to get support from NADMO have proven futile.

According to the reports a group of men tried to rescue some trapped people at Osu but the rescuing mission was getting daunting because they lacked the necessary equipment.
