The Ghana Water Company Limited (GWCL) has resumed water supply to some parts of Accra following the completion of repair works on its damaged pipelines.
Water supply to some areas in the capital was disrupted on Thursday after the Weija Treatment Plant was shut down.
The Company said the plant had to go off to enable it to determine the extent of damage to some major pipelines around the Obetsebi Lamptey interchange.

A few weeks ago, the company suspended water supply to Dodowa, Adentan, Madina and other communities in parts of Accra over power challenges.
The Ghana Water Company said it could not pump or supply water from the Dodowa Booster station which serves the North-Eastern part of Accra, as a result of the destruction of some electrical cables that feed the station.
