Some parts of Accra have been flooded following Tuesday night’s rains.
The downpour, which lasted for hours, has left many people around the Kwame Nkrumah Circle Interchange and adjoining communities displaced.
Some areas affected include Odaw, Avenor, Dansoman among others.
Meanwhile, a military team is moving to the areas with speed boats to help rescue some of the residents in homes filled with floodwater.
Vehicular traffic has also been blocked along the Kwame Nkrumah Circle Interchange and other link roads.
