The Nsawam Adoagyiri Municipal Assembly is urging all residents to remain vigilant as persistent heavy rains continue to affect many parts of the country.
Residents, particularly those living in low-lying and flood-prone communities, are advised to take the necessary precautions to safeguard lives and property.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
✅ Do not attempt to walk or drive through flooded roads.
✅ Stay away from rivers, streams, and open drains during and after rainfall.
✅ Keep children away from flood-prone areas and fast-moving water.
✅ Drive with caution and avoid unnecessary travel during heavy rains.
