Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>Residents of Kpone, in the Kpone-Katamanso Municipality, have been hit with acute water shortage ahead of the yuletide.<\/p>\n

In an interview with the Ghana News Agency, Mr Jacob Tettey Addy, Assembly Member for Denglah Electoral Area in Kpone, said the water shortage had affected domestic and commercial activities.<\/p>\n

He said the water challenge in Kpone had been there for a long time, adding it was time the leadership helped to address the situation.<\/p>\n

Mr Addy called on the Ghana Water Company to ensure that residents enjoy a frequent supply of water to their homes.<\/p>\n

The Denglah Assembly Member said because of the water shortage, residents in the various communities spent huge sums of money to buy water from private suppliers.<\/p>\n

Mr Addy called on the Kpone-Katamanso Municipal Assembly to solve the problem and ensure that the residents have potable water for use during the Christmas season.<\/p>\n

He called on benevolent organizations to supply residents with water for domestic and commercial consumption.<\/p>\n

The Ghana News Agency observed that residents in Kpone spend about GHC1.50 for water in the yellow gallons and GHC350.00 for 1,200 litres.<\/p>\n

Some of the affected communities are Jamestown, Alata, Jornshi, Shangai, UAC, Olydade, and Dortia.<\/p>\n
