In a video circulating on social media, the actress expressed disappointment in the way many Ghanaians handle sanitation and national development.
According to her, the continuous flooding disasters are a sign that citizens must begin to take responsibility for their actions, claiming God is angry with the nation.
“God is angry with us. Ghanaians, God is angry with us,” she said emotionally while addressing the issue.
Victoria Lebene explained that many people complain about the state of the country, yet contribute to the very problems affecting society.
“People throw filth and rubbish into gutters, and when it rains heavily, everything gets blocked and flooded,” she stated.
The actress questioned why some citizens abandon Ghana to seek permanent residence abroad after failing to properly take care of their own country.
“He has chosen us and built a country for us so that we can dwell in it and take good care of it,” she added.

According to her, while travelling abroad for business, holidays, or education is understandable, Ghanaians should focus more on fixing problems at home instead of always looking for greener pastures elsewhere.
“We can travel for business, pleasure, or vacation, but let us stay in Ghana. Let us sit down in Ghana and solve our own issues,” she stressed.
She further called Ghanaian's in the Diaspora to come back home and fix the country
Victoria Lebene also called on citizens, especially the youth, to support President John Dramani Mahama in his efforts to improve the country.

"This isn’t about God, but about selfish politicians. It actually rains more in the diaspora than in Ghana, yet there are no major flooding issues that take lives—have you ever asked why? When there are no proper laws and policies to govern a country, this is the kind of outcome you see. It has nothing to do with God. These politicians, from the top leaders to the lowest levels, travel around the world and see how systems work elsewhere and what can be learned from them. My final question is: what exactly are elected MPs doing? The only minister who seems to be making meaningful progress is the foreign minister—what about the rest?"
