The National Disaster Management Organization (NADMO) has retrieved the bodies of 11 people who drowned in Tema and its environs after a torrential downpour Sunday. Two of the victims were found trapped under the Ashiaman tunnel beneath the Accra-Tema motorway. Nine more bodies were retrieved in Tema, Kpone and Ashaiman. NADMO coordinator Kofi Portuphy tells Joy News all the bodies have been deposited at the Tema General Hospital morgue. “We’ve seen a lot of their relatives; we have identified all of them, their names,” he said of the retrieved bodies. NAMDO officials worked throughout the night with the support of the Ghana Navy to evacuate about 3,000 people whose houses were submerged by floods in Tema. Mr Portuphy tells Joy News NADMO needs more relief items to support these people. Meanwhile a 25-year-old man is said to have been electrocuted to death after he attempted to take advantage of a blackout in the Ketu South district of the Volta region during the rains to steal electricity cables. Regional NADMO Coordinator for the Volta Region, Henry Ametepey, told Joy News the body has been deposited at the hospital for autopsy. "He was totally electrocuted, he had his hand chopped off [and] his body almost mutilated by the light," he said. Source: Joy News/Myjoyonline.com/Ghana
