Several Ghanaians have taken to Twitter to express their frustrations with Friday morning rains that have rendered many roads unmotorable.
Many intersections in Accra and Kumasi, according to reports, have been flooded and motorists are finding it difficult to use them.
There are, as at now, three accidents on the Accra-Tema motorway while there is heavy traffic on some major routes in the capital.
Below are tweets by some Ghanaians who are frustrated about the situation.
Flooding every year. Accra, why?

If the media could spend more time on essential topics like Accra Floods perhaps something would have been done long ago.
