A bad storm hit the Ofosu area in Nkwanta South last Friday afternoon. Heavy rain poured down as powerful winds tore through the community. Three people ended up hurt, and many families lost their homes because of this unexpected weather disaster. Nobody saw it coming until it was already causing problems everywhere.
The winds ripped roofs off buildings and broke windows all around town. Ofosu M/A Basic School suffered major damage when the storm tore apart classrooms. Students and teachers will face big challenges returning to learning in these wrecked buildings. The school looks completely different after just one afternoon of terrible weather.
Christian Ahiavi is the headteacher and saw everything happen. He worried about how everyone would stay safe during such dangerous conditions. The school needs serious repairs before kids can return safely to class. Mr. Ahiavi asked several groups for emergency help right away.
He wants the National Disaster Management Organization and local government officials from Nkwanta South to step in with resources. Any kind of people who can donate supplies would make a difference for the community. Basic services stopped working after the storm, leaving many residents without what they needed. The entire community struggles to recover from what happened on Friday.
