The Presiding Bishop of Perez Chapel, Bishop Charles Agyin Asare is calling for the prosecution of people who sell lands on waterways as one of the first steps towards dealing with the perennial flooding in Accra.

“We can’t always go and come back to point zero and every time there is a flood we see presidents help in clearing the debris; it must stop” he stressed.

The Perez Chapel leader noted that Wednesday’s torrential rains and fire disasters that claimed about 150 lives has afforded an opportunity for the authorities in charge to demolish buildings on waterways to avoid a recur of such pandemonium.

“This is the time authorities must breakdown building on waterways. Everyday has seen how this rain has wrecked havoc," he bemoaned.
