12-year-old girl killed, over 40 houses destroyed in Yendi rainstorm

A 12-year-old girl has died, several people have sustained injuries and more than 40 houses have been destroyed after a severe rainstorm swept through parts of the Yendi Municipality in the Northern Region.

Residents have since called for emergency relief, including temporary shelter, food and building materials, to support families affected by the disaster as they begin rebuilding their lives.

The storm, which struck in the early hours of Wednesday, July 22, displaced dozens of families, forcing many residents to seek temporary shelter with relatives and friends after their homes were damaged or destroyed.
