News Night: Engineers Blame Human Error for Floods & Collapses; Mahama’s Ratings Slip
News Night with Kenneth Gyasi and Gemma Appiah on Joy 99.7 FM brings you the major stories shaping Ghana tonight.
The Ghana Institution of Engineering says Accra's recurring floods and deadly building collapses share a common cause: human error. Engineers point to weak enforcement of planning laws, indiscriminate dumping in waterways, and poor construction practices as key factors behind the growing disasters. With the death toll from recent building collapses nearing a dozen, we examine preliminary findings into incidents in Adenta, Avenor, and Newtown, and government's promised response.
Also tonight, the latest Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA) survey suggests President John Mahama's honeymoon period may be cooling, with his approval rating dropping by nine percentage points in five months. We analyze the factors behind the decline and what the numbers reveal about public sentiment.
Meanwhile, the Majority is rejecting Minority claims that World Cup tickets were secretly allocated to NDC supporters, insisting the tickets in question form part of FIFA's official allocation to the Ghana Football Association.
Plus, we get the latest from the Black Stars camp in the United States ahead of Ghana's opening match at the FIFA World Cup.
