President Mahama just promised big changes regarding the water problems in Ghana. During his talk at Black Star Square for Eid-ul-Fitr 2025, he made it clear that anyone building on wetlands needs to watch out. He plans to tear down every single building that blocks waterways across the country. The rainy season starts soon, yet floods already happen because buildings block rivers.

The President looked really upset about how many people break building rules. He talked about how these illegal buildings make flooding way worse every year. Ghana faces these same flood problems year after year because rivers can't flow where they should. Many houses end up underwater because some builders put profits ahead of safety.

Mahama directly called out certain chiefs for selling protected land. He said these chiefs team up with developers to sell Ramsar sites that should never be touched. When left alone, these protected wetlands help naturally prevent floods. The government plans to enforce strict punishments against everyone involved in these deals.

No exceptions will exist in this new crackdown on illegal structures. Mahama said his team wouldn't let a small group of greedy people hurt everyone else. The bulldozers will come for any building blocking water paths, even expensive ones. Anyone breaking these laws will face serious trouble from government officials starting right away.
