Minority Leader Questions NADMO Over Flood Relief Distribution

Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin has sharply criticized the National Disaster Management Organisation (NADMO) over its distribution of relief items to flood victims. Speaking in Parliament, Afenyo-Markin alleged that NADMO officials distributed baked beans and Indomie noodles to affected residents in Nima and Accra New Town.

"We have been told that some funds have been released to NADMO. Only yesterday, Mr. Speaker, we saw NADMO at Nima and Accra New Town sharing baked beans and Indomie. Baked beans. Baked beans," he stated, questioning the organization's priorities.

Afenyo-Markin argued that flood victims require more substantial assistance to aid their recovery, rather than what he deemed inadequate relief provisions. He specifically questioned why the organization did not use the available funds to procure more essential food items or provide support to businesses impacted by the floods.

The Minority Leader called for greater accountability from the government and NADMO, emphasizing the need to ensure that allocated relief funds are utilized effectively to provide appropriate and meaningful support to those affected by the recent floods.
