The Akossombo dam spillage has caused so much more than predicted. The water running through Volta region has destroyed almost everything on its way. Farms, houses and many more.
Many were displaced and there seems to be no way to return to normalcy anytime soon. Many are the volunteers and goodwill individuals who trooped to the sites to send their aid.
Agric Minister, Bryan Acheampong, has directed that $40 million of World Bank support funding be given to farmers in the Volta Region who have lost their farmlands as a result of the spillage of the Akosombo Dam.
