Fodome Traditional Area Donates GHS25,000 to Flood Victims’ Disaster Relief Fund

BY: News Desk | voltaonlinegh.com|

The Chiefs and people of Fodome Traditional Area in the Hohoe Municipality have extended support to flood victims of the lower Volta basin through the newly established Volta Region House of Chiefs Disaster Relief Fund, responding to the flood devastation.

A delegation from the area, led by Togbe Diabo XIV, a divisional chief of Fodome Hloma, with support from Togbe Kottoh IV, Mankralo of Fodome Woe, and Mama Dzigbordzi Koto IV, Divisional Queen of Fodome Woe,  presented a cheque for GHS25,000 to the President of the Regional House of Chiefs, Togbe Tepre Hodo in Ho last Thursday, towards the relief efforts of the house.

According to Togbe Diabo, the disaster was of a grave concern to the people of Fodome, hence, viewed the regional house initiative as a means to collectively aid those impacted.

“We want to assure our fellow citizens in the flood-affected areas that we stand with them and will offer support whenever the opportunity arises.”

Togbe Tepre Hodo, President of the Regional House of Chiefs, who received the donation, conveyed profound appreciation to the chiefs and people of Fodome Traditional area, as well as their paramount chief, Togbe Gbodegbleme Akpatsa II, for their generous contribution.

He noted, “they have indeed set the example with their contribution to the disaster fund.”

Togbe Tepre Hodo revealed that the fund, established a few weeks ago, had accumulated close to GHS100,000, and commended all contributors, including the Volta Regional Minister and “countless other donors.”

“It’s very impressive, but we can do better. We are looking forward to making a meaningful donation to the victims by Christmas.”

The Volta Region House of Chiefs established the relief fund a few days after the flooding and is collaborating with GBC Volta Star Radio in Ho and Radio Gold in Accra to promote the fund.

An account, “Volta Region House of Chiefs Disaster Relief Fund” – 5011180003678, GCB Ho Main Branch, has been designated for contributions.
