A joint inspection was conducted at Waterland in Tema New Town on Monday, March 30, 2026, by the National Disaster Management Organisation (NADMO) Metro Director, Hajia Zainab, Assemblyman Hon. Enoch Afutu, and a team of NADMO officers. The visit followed a heavy downpour on Sunday, March 29, which triggered significant flooding in the area.

The purpose of the inspection was to ascertain the primary cause of the flooding incident and assess the extent of damage. The exercise forms part of ongoing efforts by authorities to understand the underlying factors contributing to recurrent flooding in the community and to develop appropriate mitigation strategies.

The flooding was linked to drainage challenges due to an ongoing construction obstructing waterways.

Filling water channels, wetlands, and flood-prone lands for construction blocks natural drainage paths. The result? Flooding that destroys property and endangers lives.

✅ Let’s protect our environment by respecting natural watercourses and adhering to proper building regulations. ✅ Remember, your short-term gain could cause long-term pain for the entire community.

Overgrown or weak trees leaning toward houses, roads, or electric poles can fall during heavy winds or storms, causing injuries, power cuts, and property damage.

✅ Regularly inspect your surroundings and report weak trees or unstable poles to the relevant authorities for pruning or replacement. A simple report today can prevent a disaster tomorrow.

Cracked walls, weak foundations, and collapsing roofs are not just signs of age—they’re warning signs of impending danger. Living or working in dilapidated structures puts lives at risk.

✅ Report unsafe buildings, and move out when advised.
✅ Don’t wait for a collapse to take action. Your safety matters more than convenience.
