  1. Flooding of GT is now a past time and normal week a day thing. However i trust the President is looking and i want to say sir i have your back and the colation.Now is the time for the MoA to do some basic questioning and fire the get rich by night 40thousand a month employee who bought a 60 million dollar house on western union remittances he said.
    Why draingae is insuch shambles and billions spent every rainy season.
    We will make it right..

  2. When I looked at the flooded areas in Georgetown. I see no method of drainage the stores have their pavement all the way up to the public road. So where is the drain and where is the water going to go when it rains it looks like a city with no drains at all.
