Former Vice President and the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) 2028 presidential candidate, Mahamudu Bawumia, has donated relief items to victims of the devastating June 29 floods following a visit to some of the hardest-hit communities in Accra.
The donation was presented on his behalf by his Advisor on Gender and Social Protection, Akosua Asaa Manu.
The gesture comes after Dr. Bawumia toured several flood-affected areas to assess the extent of the destruction and interact with residents whose homes and livelihoods were impacted by the disaster.
The June 29 floods, triggered by hours of heavy rainfall, displaced thousands of residents, destroyed homes and businesses, and claimed several lives across parts of the Greater Accra Region.
The relief items are expected to provide immediate support to affected families as they begin rebuilding their lives.
Speaking during the presentation, Akosua Asaa Manu conveyed Dr. Bawumia’s sympathies to the victims and reaffirmed his commitment to supporting those affected by the disaster.
She also encouraged residents to adhere to safety directives issued by the relevant authorities as efforts continue to prevent further flooding and protect lives and property.
