Mr. Benson Boadum Acheampong, Nkoranza District Coordinator of NADMO, expressed the organization�s regret about the incident, in which Mr. Amankwaah and his family lost all their personal belongings. Mr. Amankwaah praised the DCE for liaising with NADMO to provide the items. Nana Krobea Asante Sarpong, Chief of Bonte, commended government for providing the relief items to the affected victims.
