Following hours of rain, parts of Accra and other urban centres in the Greater Accra Region, including North Kaneshie, Kwame Nkrumah Circle and Kasoa have been flooded.
The phenomenon has obstructed traffic flow on some major roads in the capital.
Already, some Ghanaians have taken to Twitter to share videos of flooded areas after Saturday evening's rain;
It appears Circle is a no-go area this evening following this evening’s downpour.
