The National Disaster Management Organisation has issued a warning to the public to stop drinking from the Tano River.
In their statement they said,
“All communities along the Tano river from Techiman - Tanoso to Chira, Duayaw Nkwanta, Bechem are advised strongly not to drink the Tano river water effective today till further notice.
This release is necessitated by an accident involving an articulated truck carrying car batteries @Tanoso in the Bono East Region. As a result of the accident, the acid in the battery diluted into the water culminating to the death of several aquatic animals including fishes, crocodiles etc.
We are by this urging all to carry the message to the target communities/people along the Tano river bank to safe human lives.”
