You’re not superhumans, move from flood-prone areas to safer ground – NADMO

Several residential areas across the national capital were flooded following Sunday’s downpour Several residential areas across the national capital were flooded following Sunday’s downpour

The Director of the Ga East Municipal National Disaster Management Organisation (NADMO), Seth Osei Kusi, has urged the public to vacate flood-prone areas.

He emphasised that relocating from these areas is a crucial step in preventing substantial damage to homes, businesses, and, most importantly, human life.

Speaking on Nyankonton Mu Nsem on Rainbow Radio 87.5FM, he noted that moving out of flood-prone areas can safeguard public health.

He stressed that floods can contaminate water sources and spread diseases, making relocation imperative.

According to him, the initial course of action for individuals in such areas is to relocate before seeking assistance from local authorities or disaster management teams.

“We advise Ghanaians residing in flood-prone areas to relocate to safer locations, especially during the rainy season. Relocation is vital due to the increased risk of flooding and associated threats to lives and property. Move to higher ground and do not risk your life and that of your family by staying in such areas,” he advised.

Furthermore, he expressed concern that filth, particularly plastic waste, is a significant issue in the municipality, with clogged drains. He pointed out that some individuals have constructed structures on waterways, hindering the smooth flow of water.

Seth Osei Kusi also confirmed that a bicycle rider disregarded warnings and attempted to navigate through floods in Agbogba, unfortunately losing his life, with his body retrieved on Monday morning.

“Our drains are choked, and despite our efforts to desilt them, some residents continue to dump waste into the drains intentionally. Others have built structures along waterways, which needs to stop. I will reiterate that those living in flood-prone areas should relocate for their safety and not pretend to be invincible. It is perilous for them to remain in these areas,” he emphasised.
