Other affected buildings and areas included, Avenorpeme Vocational Training Institute, Sesime, Adonai International Academy, Zonal Council’s secretariat office, among others.
Mr Peter Hovey Agbaga, the Assembly member of the area, briefing GNA, disclosed that some affected victims including the aged, were currently seeking refuge with friends and relations.
He called for urgent intervention from the authorities including the National Disaster Management Organisation (NADMO) and the Municipal Assembly to secure assistance for the victims.
“I would like the Assembly to take immediate action to reduce the impact of the disaster on the people”, he said.
Mr Ocloo Mawuli Agos, the Akatsi South Municipal Director of NADMO, told the GNA, that his outfit would be expecting some relief items from Ho, the Volta Regional Capital, to take care of the situation before they looked at other plans.
