NADMO presents relief items to Upper East

Bolgatanga, Sept. 16, GNA – The Upper East Region on Friday took delivery of a second consignment of relief items from the National Disaster Management Organisation (NADMO).

The items included blankets, plastic cups, plastic buckets, used clothing and cooking oil.

The Upper East Regional Coordinator of NADMO, Mr. Samuel Anderson Anafo, presented the items to the Upper East Regional Minister, Mr. Alhassan Samari.

Mr. Samari commended NADMO for responding quickly to the appeal the Regional Coordinating Council made and gave the assurance that the items would be distributed fairly and equitably to the vulnerable and the affected people.

Jonmoore International Express, a road haulage company based in Tema, also presented used clothing, 5000 sachets of ORS, 100 pieces of sleeping mats and mosquito coils all worth about 30 million cedis to the disaster victims.

The donation was done through the personal initiative of the Upper East Regional Commander of the Customs, Excise, and Preventive Service (CEPS), Mr. Evans Klutse.

Presenting the items to the Regional Minister, the Head of Transport Operation of Jonmoore International, Mr. Ekow Kwakye Botchway, said his outfit was prepared to be a focal point from where relief items to the flood victims in the three northern regions could be sent since it had the capacity to transport items to the affected areas. Mr. Samari commended Jonmoore International and appealed to other organisations and individuals who would want to transport relief items to the flood victims to do so through Jonmoore International. 16 Sept 07
