Listening to my Bishop recount his ordeal trapped in the now familiar Accra traffic while desperately trying to reach a hospital was deeply unsettling. It was not just a testimony; it was a warning. A warning that we must stop allowing ourselves to be bullied into normalising dysfunction. Our cities are choking. Congestion is no longer a nuisance; it is a public safety emergency. When traffic stands still, lives are lost. Emergency response time is often the difference between survival and tragedy, and in our cities, that difference is too frequently decided by gridlock.
