The Effutu Municipal Assembly in collaboration
with the Member of Parliament for the area, Mr Mike Hammah, has presented relief items worth 5,000.00 Ghana cedis to support the Walababa flood
victims.
The items include five bags of rice, Ploy mates, 9 Bags of Corn, 4 bags of Beans and 4 bails of used cloths.

Mr Robert Quartey, Effutu Municipal Coordinator of National Disaster Management Organisation (NADMO) who made the presentation on behalf of the Assembly and the MP, said the donation was in fulfilment of a promise the
Municipal Chief Executive, Nii Ephraim and the MP made when they visited the victims some weeks ago.
He advised the people not to build on water ways to avoid disaster during heavy downpour.
Receiving the items on behalf of the people Neenyi Obombah II, Odikro of the town, thanked the donors and appealed to non-governmental
organisations and philanthropists to come to their aid.
