Flash Floods Sweep Man off Bridge in Accra, Ghana, and Threaten Residents in Asaba, Nigeria

In Accra, Ghana, the River Klagon burst its banks during a heavy downpour, submerging a bridge and sweeping a vehicle away. A person is feared dead. Deputy Director‑General of Operations for the National Disaster Management Organisation, Teddy Addi Safori, said, "We received a call ... the River Klagon had overflowed onto the bridge ... and swept one vehicle away," and NADMO teams were deployed to search for the missing person.

In Asaba, Delta State, Nigeria, a man was carried into fast‑moving floodwaters in the Okpanam area after intense rain. Bystanders rushed to rescue him, with a recorded voice pleading, "God save him..." while warning a nearby boy to stay back. Authorities have not confirmed the man's condition, but the incident has revived concerns over inadequate drainage infrastructure in the city.
