Political Equalization Gone Wrong as a lady called Bridget takes the NDC on their deciet.

 Political Equalization Gone Wrong as a lady called Bridget takes the NDC on their deciet. 

I have been following the conversations on the recent floods in Accra, and I find it worrying how some people are trying to score political points instead of focusing on the real issues.

The constant "equalization" commentaries by some NDC communicators suggest that because flooding has occurred in Accra, it somehow justifies what happened elsewhere. That line of argument does not comfort victims, nor does it solve Ghana's flooding challenges.

I am an indigene, and I vividly remember the tragic flooding at Atafoa in Kumasi, where lives were lost. At the time, the focus was not on political propaganda but on finding solutions. Through the intervention of Hon. Asenso-Boakye and the then NPP administration, urgent steps were taken to address the situation and bring relief to affected residents.

Leadership is measured not by how well one explains away disasters but by the speed and commitment shown in responding to them.

Floods do not know political colours. Whether they happen in Accra, Kumasi, Tamale, or Takoradi, every Ghanaian life matters equally. Instead of celebrating or comparing tragedies, we should be demanding practical solutions that protect our communities.

As Ghanaians, we must reject the politics of equalizing suffering. Every life lost is one too many, and every government must be held accountable for preventing future disasters rather than using past tragedies to justify present failures.
