Ghana Water Limited plans to let out extra water from the Weija Dam after recent rains filled it up. The company must start controlled releases right away or risk breaking the dam itself. Charles Tulashie received a warning letter from the Greater Accra Regional Chief Manager about this danger.

The letter explained how rising water threatens the dam's structure, which could harm people nearby. Officials want to begin with small amounts of water release but might need to increase it depending on how much water keeps flowing in. Workers will continue letting water out as long as levels stay high to prevent any possible collapse.

Residents should prepare for possible changes in water flow downstream as this safety measure continues. The company hopes these early steps will protect the dam structure itself and homes located in vulnerable areas. GWL made this decision after careful monitoring showed dangerous pressure building against dam walls from heavy rainfall throughout the catchment area.
