Residents of Asylum Down, a suburb of Accra  in the Korle Klottey constituency of the Greater Accra region are unhappy with the state of the bridge in the community.

Concrete slabs constituting the drain have broken down at many sections, and a bridge enabling people to connect from the Paloma Hotel area to the Asylum Down Roundabout section  is also a  threat as pillars serving the bridge  structure could crumble.

The Korle Klottey constituency with its other suburbs Osu, Adabraka and Ridge is home to notable holdings including the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) headquarters and until recently the National Democratic Congress (NDC) headquarters as well.

However there is looming danger should authorities continue to remain blind in the face of the Asylum Down drainage disintegration.
