Heavy rains have affected flood-prone areas of the Upper East Region. Most residents of the Upper East Region are still counting their losses, following Wednesday’s torrential rains that lasted for almost ten hours.
Business activities in Bolgatanga and its catchment areas, have been greatly affected. The downpour which began around 4:30 am, resulted in flooding, causing severe destruction to farmlands.
A number of houses in flood-prone areas were inundated.
Some of the affected communities include Sawaba, Damoen, Kalbeo, Kumbangre, and Tindonsolbogo in the Talensi District.
Others are Winkogo, Nyaasa, Abi-yeri, Awusyeri, Kodeema, Kori and Alab-yeri. Most communities in the Builsa and Kassena-Nankana districts were not spared, as households and farmlands were submerged in water.
In an interview with Radio Ghana, the Regional NADMO Officer in charge of Operations, Paul Woomha, said zonal officers are in the field compiling data on the affected persons and households to enable the organisation to attend to their plight.
