Keta MP calls for urgent action as floods submerge homes and destroy farmlands

He explained that the obstruction of natural water channels has affected the flow of rainwater into the sea, making urgent desilting and environmental restoration necessary.“Those channels, through salt mining and other activities, have affected the natural course of the flow of rain into the sea.

Speaking after touring affected communities, Mr Gakpey described the flooding as one of the worst the area has experienced in recent years, with several communities struggling to cope with the impact of rising water levels.
