NPP Japan would like to express our deepest condolences to the family and
friends of the victims of Friday's earthquake and tsunami devastation in
Japan. We hope well meaning people across the world would join hands and
resources to help Japan get back on its feet. We do have trust in Japanese
people and their government and we would do our part in rebuilding Japan.
We would also like to inform Ghanaians in Japan that due to the ongoing
power-outages, limited or suspended train services in the Tokyo area and
uncertain situation at the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant, they should stay
calm and following news report. So far we have contacted NPP Japan member
(The “Kukudurians” ) in Japan and have inform them to contact Ghana Embassy
in Tokyo if they hear or know any Ghanaian who’s life have significantly
affected by last Fridays earthquake and would need help or should contact
NPP Japan Office. We are monitoring the situation closely.
Ghanians in Japan should note that there are false rumors circulating and
should be careful information there pass around. The Earthquake information
in English can be access from the link below. Yahoo! JAPAN Emergency
