The National Disaster Management Organisation (NADMO) has warned that persistent indiscipline among Ghanaians is undermining efforts to tackle flooding, particularly in urban centres. The Kumasi Metropolitan Assembly (KMA) NADMO Administrator, Jamal-Deen Ibrahim Seidu, said irresponsible waste dumping, illegal construction and disregard for drainage regulations remain the major drivers of flooding in the Ashanti Region. Speaking on the sidelines of the World Soil Day celebration at the Soil Research Institute of the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR-SRI) in Kumasi, Mr Seidu stressed that authorities cannot win the fight against floods without a change in public behaviour.
