If government agencies gave them the planning permission to build then the issue of compensation should be considered. Having said that officials who gave out those permits would have caused the state financial loss if their actions result in the state paying judgement debts and they should be surcharged and/or imprisoned for their crimes. They deserve to be in prison more than chicken thieves or wee smokers. If mahama cannot think of all these things then it might be better to have a dog as president

Well, sidney, many of these homes built in flood-prone zones were put up during the administration of the NPP, NDC, and all past administrations. I onder what you have to say about your NPP's inaction while these homes were going up. If many of these homes are in areas prone to flooding, the government can take action to demolish the homes. The government has to give homeowners proper notice and an opportunity for a hearing before any demolition action can go forward. Further, the government must adequately compensate affected homeowners while also helping them find alternate sites to rebuild.

Is he waiting for this tragedy to happen again and then turn around to blame somebody? The right thing has to be done from now. If the people had permits to build at those places, then the govt has to compensate them before pulling down their houses. If they built without permits, then unfortunately they can't blame nobody for their loss. Regardless, the right thing has to be done. This is not the time for partisan politics.

I agree with you. Assuming those folks even prevail in resisting the Government to retain their Structures, how sensible is it to remain in those buildings to await recurrent disastrous floods, year after year?
Strictly speaking, those without building permits would not have to be compensated by the Government. But we should bear in mind that even if the buildings were on the lands belonging to the people and not in the paths of running water, they might still qualify for some relief by the Government to restore their living.
That is why we have the NADMO. After rescue and other disaster interventions, the organization is supposed to assess the damage and offer assistance for Citizens affected to rebuild their lives. It is therefore not out of place to have the Government provide the affected with new houses in safer places.
It all comes down to availability of funds. Meanwhile, we should know that many might claim their documents to prove the legality of the construction of those buildings might have been destroyed by the floods. While that may not be enough excuse to produce evidence of such legality, the issue then gets more complicated. It could as well be that some permits were given but not recorded formally in proper books by corrupt Officials.
So, the Government must swallow the cost and provide for all owners, regardless of whether or not they built without permits. And then, from that point on, it must strengthen the laws and caution the Public appropriately to refrain from repeating that mistake at their own expense.
As a deterrent, however, the Government may have to provide only part for the cost of those buildings for which no permits could be provided.
But whether or not those owners of buildings on water ways would be paid compensation or not, those buildings must definitely come down, if future floods are to reduced or prevented.
Long Live Ghana!!!

Casely Hayford has become nuisance when it comes to public issues. Casely Hayford like Okoampah Ahoofe speaks without thinking because Akuffo Addo is not president. Everything that comes out from their mouth has political implication. Like ex-president Rawlings said, we need to bulldoze a lot of houses to stop this nonsense of the blame on government. All or most of these houses were built not less than twenty years ago. Casely Hayford, where do you stand for the owners to blame the present government?

Do you relate to Casely Hayford or just a paid up guy who insult people who say anything about Akuffo Addo's ambition to become president? I am not surprise because politicians do politics with fools like you. Your job here does not count. Less than 0.001 Ghanaian voters visit Ghanaweb. Most of them live outside Ghana and have no votes. So you see your stupidity? Let us see what happens in 2016. Ask Okoampah Ahoofe, missing out Akadu Mensema and many others whether their comments and articles on Ghanaweb helped Akuffo Addo in any way. Don't be a fool but get a life because you are being used for nothing. You will be dumped and die foolishly like the Northern regional Chairman Mahama.

If they paid bribes to be allowed to build on water ways then it's their loss but the question is how do you know your land is on a water way. The government should put in place measures to allow for land searches to be made by people who want to buy land. Nobody in their right mind will buy land that they know would be flooded when it rains heavily.

Have we mapped out all the waterways in Accra?
Are the critics of Mr. Caseley Hayford very sure which waterways we are clearing?
The craze to demolish property is bourne out of ignorance. Don't free flowing rivers burst their banks and wreak havoc?
The idea that the flooding of Accra can only be managed by demolishing property in "waterways" is lazy thinking.
Let us think scientific and construct a proper drainage system and stop this primitivity about waterways and bulldozers.
Frankfurt,London,New York and many thriving cities are built on waterways but they are not flooding.
When Mahama cut the sod to deliver a flood free Accra did he say part of the plan was to demolish houses?
Let those hurling abuse at Casely-Hayford think more and insult less.

Yes, I agree with you that authorities are to blame for the recent disaster in Accra, however, I personally think that the people resisting such an attempt is not the best to find solution to the problem, the fact that the authorities overlooked the citing of houses at wrong places does not make it right for the people not to cooperate with effort to reverse the situation in order to solve a major problem, because it is these same people who surfer most during such a catastrophic occurrence, what they need to ensure however is that the needed compensations are paid before allowing the authorities to demolish their houses and establishments

This is one of the political talk and condolence messages so do not worry....nothing will happen to your houses. Even more permits will be issued ....that usually reads...

Mr Casely-Hayford you are very definition of an educated idiot. Have you heard of the saying "two wrongs don't make a right"?

Three contractors were visiting Bole Game Reserve on the same day. One was from Ghana, another from Burkina Fasso, and the third from Ivory Coast.
At the end of the tour, the guard asked them what they did for a living. When they all replied that they were contractors, the guard said, “Hey, we need one of the Buildings to be demolished. Why don’t you guys take a look at it and give me a bid?”
So, to the back Wall they all went to check it out.
First to step up was the Ivorian contractor. He took out his tape measure and pencil, did some measuring and said, “Well I figure the job will run about $900. $400 for materials, $400 for my crew, and $100 profit for me.”
Next was the Burkinabe contractor. He also took out his tape measure and pencil, did some quick figuring and said, “Looks like I can do this job for $700. $300 for materials, $300 for my crew, and $100 profit for me.
Without so much as moving, the Ghana contractor said, “$2,700.”
The guard, incredulous, looked at him and said, “You didn’t even measure like the other guys! How did you come up with such a high figure?”
“Easy,” he said $1,000 for me, $1,000 for you and we hire the guy from Burkina Fasso.”

WHAT DID THE USELESS NDC DO ABOUT THIS SITUATION AFTER 26 YEARS OF USELESS RULE?
HON. PETER ALA ADJETEY WILL NOT STOOP THIS LOW. VOTE AMASA NAMOALE OUT OF PARLIAMENT, AND GET SOMEONE WHO BEFITS THE POSITION.
People of Ghana, Dangerous politicians like Amasa Namoale who have no idea that democracy involves divergent views, but all aimed at one goal; making Ghana better must not be entertain in our country's politics. Amasa Namoale does not know this because he doesn't think about Ghana. For him, it is all about SELFISH AMBITION. Hence, his unpatriotic comments on issues bothering on Wayome and his incessant perpetuation of tribal discrimination. I know the people of La dadekotopon electoral area can do better. The people of La in General have offered one of the best politicians Ghana has ever had in the person of PETER ALA ADJETEY, and I believe they can do it again. Amasa Namoale is far below the standard one expect from a politician from La. I therefore appeal to the people of La dadekotopon to kick this sub-standard parliamentarian out, come 2016, and give us someone who will reflect what they stand for and believe in. May God bless all of you at La dadekotopon, and La in general. NY3 YIWALA DON MINY3MIM3I.

this is one who has never spewed anything responsible or sensible and people are beginning thinking whether if it has ever said something of that nature.
I may be very hast in this, but listen and read from hayford all time, you will be tempted to say more than this if there are more words than I thought. One will wonder how hayford trains his family as a leader of such innocent children. Else God saves them.

Why is it that nobody has been fired yet? Why? We are agree someone or some people failed to do the work they're paid to do. Why are they still occupying their positions? Ghana why? Citizens should resist oppressors rule and demand that heads role. There should be organized massive demonstration across the country demanding that city officials and heads of governmental officials who failed to perform their duties be fired without delay. The Mayor of Accra has said that he's failed the people of Accra. I beg to differ sir. You've failed the people of Ghana not just Accra. He should do the honorable thing and resign his post. Now, to solve this problem and prevent it from happening again has nothing to do with demolishing people's houses built in water ways. Rather, fix the whole damn drainage systems by redirecting all river bodies, lagoons and streams to the sea. There is money at your disposal for work to begin, get to work. Stop blaming citizens you took bribes from and therefore looked the other way when you knew they were building in water ways. Stop putting bandages on the stomach-ache and get to the root of it. Citizens should rise up and demand that the loans this administration has taken from foreign banks and governments for this very purpose be accounted for. Enough is enough!

How many times have we not had this flooding situation and nothing has been done about it, except to pay lip service and such senseless photo op opportunities? Just last year, after a similar flooding situation John Dramani Mahama instructed, ordered Seth Terkper to release funds for the construction of drains? What happened?
Where has been the leadership expected to fix the perennial emphasis on perennial flooding situation as a result of the absence of a drainage system which can meet the rapid urbanization of Accra, which the John Mahama NDC gov't contracted a loan of close to $1billion dollars?
Where is the drainage system and where is the loan which taxpaying Ghanaians would invariably pay when the loan matures?
Ghanaians are saying enough is enough. Not one more Ghanaian, not one more precious life of a Ghanaian should be lost on the crass incompetence, ineptitude, thievery, irresponsibility, inability to think, the propaganda and the useless talk that has attended the governance of the Mahama-led NDC gov't.
Ghanaians are saying enough is enough. Ghanaian lives matter and the failed leadership and the failed governance of the John Dramani Mahama NDC gov't must go.

He did not even ear a degree there because he was only into girls and did not take his studies seriously because he came from a rich family. Common sense is not common.

Casely-Hayford is a respectable man in Ghana. He's stooped too low on this one. There is a problem in Ghana which has caused a good number of people to lose their lives. How do we solve the problem? Asking the owners of houses built on waterways to be recalcitrant, will not solve the problem. It's the last advice I expected from a renowned statesman like Casely-Hayford. I was expecting him to have suggested alternative means of solving the problem. What should we do? It's time we begun to hold leaders responsible for failing to ensure the the right things are done for the country. The flood which hit Accra calls for the resignation of the Mayor of the city. It's just not enough for the Mayor to tell the whole world that he's failed the inhabitants of the capital city. He has to resign to serve as a deterrent to whoever takes over from him. In the western world, that is what good and honest leaders do. When leaders in the developed nations (Britain, China, Australia, Canada etc. ) fail their people who voted them into power, they (the leaders) resign honorably. This is not what we do in Ghana. So sad!

If he was being sarcastic, he would have said so. He cannot take back what he's said. The people of Ghana demand answers to drainage problem. Anything that will add to the already precarious problem must not be tolerated. It's very unfortunate that Casely-Hayford will encourage owners of houses built in waterways to be recalcitrant toward the authorities. I, for one, believe that the leader of the city (the Accra Mayor) must resign due to this unfortunate event. That's what good and honest leaders do when they fail their people.

The demolishing would not solve the problem , proper drainage system should be established at those flood prone areas either letting the gutters to pass underground under those buildings or even through people's homes.But no compensation should be paid to anyone whose house would be affected during the construction of the drainage system either going under those buildings or even through their compounds. In addition, house owners , contractors and engineers should analys the drainage patterns of every area for any form of construction and device appropriate foundation levels at which buildings should be established on.

The most backward people in every society are the semi literate ones.Their level of understanding is very strange and they are the people the politicians use them as stuge to accomplish their personal aggrandisement. All their criticisms are unreasonable and blind.Why should the government demolish poor men houses while there are so many possible ways the government can do to divert the course of running waters in the nation's capital. If the president wants to pull down buildings then he needs to import thousands of bulldozer and the pulling down exercise should not be around only "circle" but almost half of Accra. Today it is circle and the next day it will be around Chorkor Agege. Anyone who sits for the occurrence of a problem before finding remedies is not wise" prevention is better than cure.According to 10 March General news published by Timothy Goban , Ghana under the presidency of Professor AttacMills received 795 million Dollars to reconstruct Accra Drains and Western Rail line. Why this money was not used for the purpose it was raised in order to prevent the occurrence of this National calamity. I was expecting some words of condolences from our two Heads of State but to my dismay their words were rather disheartening "demolition of people's houses" adding more injuries to the existing wounds

they offer bribes officials take the bribes to build anywhere. Both the builders and so-called municipal councils are to blame. The builders know it is wrong to offer bribes to build on a water course.
Good comment!!!!
You see why he is being insulted as stupid? A whole president Kuffuor built on water way, the reason he is saying that nonsense! He probably has his house too on water way.
The buildings should first be pulled down. If owners have a case, they should go to court and sue the AMA for compensation. As for Casely Hayford he is a good for nothing man with no brains
