In a not so surprising turn of events, vehicles and some properties of residents of Dzorwulu and Kaneshie first light have been swept away following torrential rain on Thursday.

The downpour which lasted a little over 3 hours created a dense pool of water around the Kaneshie First Light area, bringing commercial activities to a halt.

In a footage sighted by GhanaWeb, a number of cars and stalls of traders have been submerged in the floodwaters. Several other items are seen floating and being carried away.

The situation is not any different at Dzorwulu. In a separate video, a resident who is trapped in his car as it appears submerged shot the scene as the water impeded him from entering his house.

Traders along the road have had their wares either soaked or carried away.

The incidence of flooding is not new to the two aforementioned areas but the situation seems to be worsening with every downpour.
