THE Minister for the Interior, Muntaka Moham­med-Mubarak, has pledged urgent reforms and re­source allocation to the National Disaster Management Organisa­tion (NADMO), stressing that Ghana cannot afford to remain unprepared for emergencies. "We cannot continue to do things the way we do them.

If we do, then God forbid, the day something major hits us, we will have ourselves to blame," he warned during a working visit to NADMO in Accra on Wednesday.

Expressing concern over the state of NADMO's infrastructure during a working visit to its head­quarters in Accra on Wednesday, he described the facility as "crying for renovation" and promised to push for immediate improve­ments. "It's such a shame that as I entered the building, I realised that the building itself is in dire need of renovation.

And that's one thing we need to prioritise," he said.
