The National Disaster Management Organization (NADMO) in the Krachi East Municipality of the Oti Region has extended humanitarian support to internally displaced persons (IDPs) from Nkwanta South who are seeking refuge in the area.
The intervention comes in response to the growing number of people fleeing tribal disturbances in Nkwanta South and reflects a strong sense of solidarity and commitment to protecting the vulnerable.
The essential relief items—including rice and other necessities—were distributed to help alleviate the hardship faced by the IDPs and to offer them a sense of security and stability in their new environment.
Speaking to the media, the Krachi East Municipal Director of NADMO, Jonathan Dzunu, stressed the urgent need to support the displaced, citing the increasing challenges they face such as limited access to food, water, and shelter.
He called for continued support and encouraged individuals and organizations to collaborate with NADMO in delivering aid to those in need.
“The number of IDPs is increasing daily due to the ongoing conflict,” Dzunu said. “We appeal for more relief items to meet the growing demand and support those fleeing the violence in Nkwanta.”
Dzunu expressed gratitude to the government, the Municipal Chief Executive (MCE), the Member of Parliament (MP), and charitable organizations for their contributions toward the relief efforts.
Municipal Chief Executive Safo Nketia assured the IDPs of a safe and secure environment in Krachi East, urging them to approach the authorities if they encounter any challenges.
Member of Parliament Nelson Kofi Djabab also pledged his continued support for the displaced persons both within and outside the constituency, affirming his commitment to their welfare.
In a conversation with Adom News, several beneficiaries expressed heartfelt appreciation to NADMO for the timely intervention. Many of them, who fled their homes in Nkwanta South due to the conflict, described the relief items as a lifeline and extended gratitude to the government and supporting organizations for their generosity.
