Accra: The Musicians Union of Ghana (MUSIGA) has extended its heartfelt condolences to Ghanaians affected by the recent floods, urging the public to remain vigilant and support ongoing relief efforts.
According to Ghana Web, the union expressed its sorrow for those who have lost loved ones and stands in solidarity with families and communities suffering displacement, property loss, and injury. The appeal follows heavy rains that triggered flooding in parts of Accra and other areas, resulting in several communities being inundated, displacing residents, and causing extensive damage to homes and property.
The recent floods have resurfaced concerns about poor drainage, indiscriminate waste disposal, and the city's vulnerability during the rainy season. MUSIGA praised the bravery and generosity shown by neighbors, volunteers, and artists across the country.
'We call on members of the public to continue supporting relief efforts by offering shelter, resources, and accurate information to those in need,' the union said. As the rainy season continues, MUSIGA urged everyone to prioritize safety by heeding official weather advisories, avoiding flood-prone areas, moving valuables to higher ground, and reporting blocked drains or hazards to local authorities.
The union also emphasized the importance of maintaining clear drainage systems and practicing proper waste disposal to help reduce the risk of flooding. MUSIGA stated that members and partners willing to assist with relief efforts could contact their regional offices to coordinate support activities.
