Alan Kyerematen commiserate with victims of Akosombo dam spillage in Volta region

The Founder of Movement for Change, Alan Kyerematen, has toured and commiserated with victims of communities affected by the Akosombo Dam spillage.

The spillage continues to render several residents homeless and thousands of homes submerging in floodwaters since the spillage.

Residents continue to cry for support from the government to cushion them as many of them occupy classrooms for safety.

Mr. Kyerematen in Mepe, one of the affected communities, said the situation has become a national disaster emergency and appealed to all and sundry, public and private actors to lend a hand.

He said he was touched by the inconveniences caused by the spillage, which took many people out from their homes although no casualty was recorded.

Mr. Kyerematen said he would support the flood victims in the coming month and urged residents to stay calm as he hoped, the District Assembly would also put in much effort to ensure that lives were saved.

He said “this was a natural disaster and there is little we can do at this moment. I pray that this becomes a thing of the past and our people will be safe again.”
