Many belongings were soaked, and some homes were rendered uninhabitable.

Floodwaters further worsened the situation, submerging several houses and leaving families stranded. Residents are appealing to the government, their Member of Parliament, Hon. Elikplim Akurugu, and other benevolent individuals for urgent support to rebuild their homes.
