Bishop Kwabena Asiamah, widely known as Ajagurajah, has stirred fresh public debate after claiming that the recent devastating floods in Accra are not the result of engineering or architectural failures but rather a spiritual issue. Speaking on the disaster, he argued that Ghanaians should focus on appeasing the gods, insisting that such spiritual intervention would help resolve the recurring flooding problem.
The comments come in the wake of severe flooding that affected several communities across Accra, leaving homes, businesses and major roads submerged while emergency responders carried out rescue operations. Ajagurajah’s remarks have generated mixed reactions online, with some supporting his spiritual perspective while others argue that improving drainage systems, enforcing planning regulations and investing in infrastructure remain the practical solutions to the city’s flood challenges.
