Former presidential staffer Dennis Miracles Aboagye has called for greater transparency regarding the activities of the government’s anti-flood task force, questioning its level of engagement since its establishment.
He argued that while the task force initially received significant media attention during its early inspections and public briefings, there has been limited visible evidence of sustained fieldwork or community engagement in recent times.
Speaking on JoyNews, Mr Aboagye challenged the leadership of the task force to provide concrete proof of ongoing operations, including locations visited and interventions carried out in flood-affected areas.
“Give me one picture, one location, one area that he has gone to,” he said, insisting that such evidence would help clarify the task force’s current level of activity.
He maintained that effective leadership during periods of flooding requires consistent presence in affected communities, regular updates to the public, and visible coordination of relief and mitigation efforts.
According to him, citizens have a right to know what actions have been taken since the initial launch of the task force, particularly given the recurring nature of flooding in parts of the country.
Mr Aboagye’s comments add to ongoing public debate about the effectiveness of institutional responses to flooding in urban areas and the need for sustained accountability in emergency management efforts.
