Parts of Attributo inundated by flood after downpour

Parts of Attributo inundated by flood after downpour



Ravaging floods and debris have inundated Attributo,a community in Damongo in the Savannah Regional capital after a downpour.

The situation has left many residents helpless as heaps of debris of mainly plastic materials among others from choked drains have forced its way into their homes.

At the time of visit, the whole area was in chaotic situation with  residents struggling to scoop water and debris from their rooms.

The debris it's believed,is being washed down from a big gutter in between Mahama Kelly's residence and wisdom garden with a route around the Attribute CHPs compound.

Originally, there was supposed to be a culbet to direct the flow of water through the confluent valley along the Attributo CHPs to a deep culbet at the GN Bank and then end at the Sofo Dam at Yagbon Residential Area.

Even though,there are no major casualties recorded,residents have expressed fear that,the situation if not checked,could worsen and wreck unforseen havoc as we gradually enter into the raining season.

They have called on city authorities to come to their aid.

This happen to be the first major rain recorded in Damongo.
