“I came back to see this… my home is flooded… bro, crazy scenes,” he shared in a video posted on X at 17:57 GMT, which quickly garnered attention from fans and followers expressing concern over the worsening flood situation in the capital.
The flooding, which affected multiple estates in Accra, highlights the city’s ongoing struggle with poor drainage infrastructure, a problem exacerbated by rapid urbanization and climate change-driven weather patterns.
Posts on X from residents, including one at 19:38 GMT noting that Sheldon’s house and surrounding areas were severely impacted, reflect growing frustration with the lack of effective flood management. Sheldon’s decision to document the disaster live brought a raw, personal perspective to the crisis, amplifying calls for government action to address the recurring issue, especially as recent reports indicate similar flooding incidents across the region, from Maryland to Somalia.
Sheldon’s video has sparked a broader conversation about accountability, with some X users urging him to take legal action against estate management for inadequate infrastructure, mirroring sentiments from other flood-affected regions like Olathe, where residents have demanded solutions after years of property damage. As Accra dries out, the YouTuber’s experience serves as a stark reminder of the urgent need for improved urban planning and disaster preparedness in Ghana. For now, Sheldon and many others are left to salvage what they can, hoping their voices—and videos—will drive meaningful change
