Manhyia South MP, Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah, is challenging narratives that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) neglected Accra’s long-standing flooding issues during its time in office. He asserts the NPP government *did* lay a critical foundation for flood control measures. Awuah’s statement directly counters claims of inaction, emphasizing existing groundwork. He believes these prior accomplishments are being overlooked in current discussions about the city’s recurrent flood problems. While acknowledging ongoing challenges, Awuah aims to highlight the NPP's contribution to mitigating Accra’s vulnerability to flooding. This defense spotlights the importance of acknowledging previous efforts when evaluating solutions to the city’s infrastructure challenges. He urges consideration of the NPP’s initiatives alongside current strategies.
