The Member of Parliament for Ketu South, Hon. Abla Dzifa Gomashie, has extended relief support to residents of Gakli and surrounding areas severely affected by recent flooding triggered by heavy rains. The MP visited the community on both Wednesday and Saturday to personally assess the extent of the damage and distribute essential aid to those impacted.

Hon. Gomashie praised the people of Gakli for their remarkable resilience, unity, and proactive self-help spirit. In her message of appreciation, she highlighted how residents had already taken the initiative to drain excess water from the community even before her arrival. She noted that this collective effort was complemented by additional support from herself and President H.E. John Dramani Mahama, demonstrating a strong partnership in addressing the immediate needs of the affected families.

The MP assured residents that other communities impacted by the flooding would also receive necessary assistance through the Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) and the National Disaster Management Organisation (NADMO). She used the opportunity to encourage the community to maintain cleanliness in their environment as a proactive measure to mitigate the risk of future flooding incidents. This call to action underscores the importance of community involvement in disaster prevention.

Addressing broader infrastructure concerns, Hon. Gomashie revealed that she has already brought the community’s complaints about poor road conditions to the attention of the Minister for Roads. She promised that the necessary steps would be taken to improve road networks in the area, a development that residents have long anticipated.

Through her actions and words, Hon. Abla Dzifa Gomashie reaffirmed her unwavering commitment to working closely with communities and stakeholders to tackle challenges and drive sustainable development across the Ketu South Municipality. Her leadership continues to inspire hope and confidence among the people she represents.
