The National Youth Authority (NYA) expresses its deepest sympathies to young people in the Shai Osudoku, North Tongu, Central Tongu, South Tongu, Asuogyaman and Ada East Districts who have been affected by the floods caused by the Akosombo Dam spillage.

It is heartbreaking to see such a sudden change and disruption to their sources of livelihood and their homes. We acknowledge their resilience and strength in these challenging times.

The youth are the backbone of our nation, and their well-being and aspirations are of the utmost importance to us. In this regard, NYA is committed to assisting in the recovery and rebuilding undertakings of these young individuals.

The Authority is mobilizing logistics and other resources to support the endeavor. Volunteers under the National Youth Volunteers Programme (NYVP), which was recently launched by H.E. the Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, will also be deployed to assist in some critical areas.

We encourage all individuals, organizations, and the broader community to join hands in the effort to ensure that the youth affected by this adversity are equipped with the requisites for rebuilding their homes and businesses.

The NYA stands in solidarity with the youth and their families during this trying time.

Chief Executive Officer,

Pius Enam Hadzide.
