The Kpandai District in the Northern Region of Ghana has been hit by yet another destructive windstorm, marking the third such incident in just a month.
This latest storm has destroyed public schools, causing significant damage to several institutions, including the Kpandai Primary School, Lessing Primary, Kpandai DA, New Nkanchina, and Balia Basic School.
The destruction has disrupted the school session, and the affected schools are appealing for support to repair the damage.
The storm's impact doesn’t stop there—over 20 houses have been destroyed, displacing many residents and causing significant economic losses.
The storm also had an unexpected victim—ASASE 91.5 FM, an affiliate of Adom 106.3, which had its transmission tower crushed.
The station manager reported that everything on the tower was destroyed and appealed for support to get back on air.
