Total paralysis. Witness a chronic problem in Al-Leith and citizens calling to “fight a thousand”.

After the rain stopped yesterday, Saturday, in Al-Leith Governorate, water has dried up in the streets of the Governorate, except for Akrama Street, which has submerged, and the water level rose to the point of burying sidewalks and causing vehicular traffic. This has resulted in the detention of some residents and prevented them from going to work or supporting themselves, except those who own four-wheel drive cars; As for the small cars, they cannot cross the street, the shops have closed their doors and their owners have suffered material losses.

Citizens of “Sabq” who are residents of Al-Leith who were affected by the closure of Ikrimah Street due to the amount of water, said that Ikrimah Street, which runs from the east to the west of the governorate, is 3 km from the worst streets of Al-Leith. A drainage project has already been implemented for this, but it is not working. The proof is that the street was completely submerged, and the citizens demanded the fight against corruption to investigate the Akrama Street drainage project.

On the other hand, the municipality of Al-Leith mobilized all its equipment, machines and human frameworks, and started its work of sucking rainwater from Akrama Street after receiving the support of the municipalities of Ghamima. and Al-Shawq.
