Some have described it as ‘dodge one get three potholes for free.’ Potholes have developed, even on the major roads in Accra, and are simply unavoidable, and no matter how hard a driver tries to dodge, he or she will end up in others.
Other road users, who are also frustrated by the poor nature of the roads, call them manholes, as some are too deep to be considered potholes. The Accra File’s tour of some parts of the metropolis clearly reveals how the city’s road network has worsened over the years.
Some drivers told the File they were fed up with the situation, and would no longer dodge potholes. “As I am speaking to you now, we don’t dodge potholes, because if you dare, you will end in three manholes.”
