Togbi Tenge Dzokoto urges calm as floodgate opens to ease flood in Keta Municipality   

Mr Wisdom Seade, the Keta Municipal Chief Executive, in an interview with the GNA, commended the chiefs, stakeholders, engineers, the VRA technical team, the media and the entire community for their various roles in ensuring the successful opening of the floodgate to alleviate the flooding situation in the three municipalities, namely Ketu South, Anloga and Keta.

He further advised the affected victims to remain patient while the engineers and the technical team from the VRA, who were responsible for opening the floodgates, monitored the water level and closed the gates when necessary to avoid any further unfortunate situations.

Meanwhile, Engineer Rex Edeckor, speaking during a stakeholders’ engagement meeting held at the Keta Municipal Assembly, said the opening of the floodgate had already begun yielding positive results, with water levels receding in many of the affected communities, such as Anyako, Atiavi-Glime, Fiaxor and Shime, among others.
