The rainstorm observed over southern Togo that drifted westward and affected areas in southern Ghana has left several locations flooded.
Areas affected include Aflao, Keta, Anloga, Ho, Akatsi, Somanya, Tema, Accra, Koforidua, and Begoro.
In several videos shared on X, citizens have recounted the harrowing experiences they encounter whenever there is a relatively heavy rainstorm.
As expected, individuals have been left stranded as portions of the roads have been submerged, and vehicles have broken down in the middle of the street.
It is anticipated that as night draws near, traffic congestion will build up as many leave work and head home.
Motorists and pedestrians are urged to be cautious and extra vigilant as they commute to their respective destinations.
