The Member of Parliament for Yapei-Kusawgu, Hon. John Abdulai Jinapor, has appealed to the government and NADMO for urgent relief for the victims of the floods that displaced hundreds in the Buipe township of the Central Gonja District.
A severe rainstorm hit Buipe Town in Central Gonja District last week, inundating the area with one of the worst floods recorded in recent times, submerging roads, houses, and farms, and ripping off roofs.
The disaster has exacerbated the area’s infrastructural deficit, with damages and estimated assistance running into millions of Ghana Cedis.
“It is very critical that immediate relief be brought to mitigate the human suffering that is getting unbearable,” Hon. Jinapor said.
The MP called on the government, non-governmental organizations, international aid agencies, and philanthropists to urgently support the victims, as those displaced by the catastrophe are in dire need of shelter, food, and clean drinking water.
