Some parts of Accra have flooded following the downpour which started Monday night.
The rains which were heavy at midnight have continued to Tuesday morning.
Also, properties running into several millions of cedis were destroyed, including some roads in Kaneshie.
In addition, several people were trapped in their homes as they could not step out due to the volume of water and the magnitude of the current.
The situation culminated in heavy traffic jams in most areas.
Some of the affected areas included Alajo in the Ayawaso East municipality, Kwame Nkrumah Interchange area in the Okaikoi South municipality, Adabraka Sahara in the Korle-Klottey municipality, the Kaneshie First Light area, Sakaman, North Kaneshie, Awoshie, Achimota, and Odorkor.
The floods resulted in heavy traffic on the roads and passengers were also spotted stranded at various bus stops waiting for vehicles to be transported to their various destinations.
Rubbish from choked gutters was washed unto the roads as a result of the floods.
