Vice President Paa Kwesi Amissah-Arthur has begun an assessment tour of disaster zones in the Northern and two Upper regions. He will interact with the over 8,000 flood victims, most of whom have still not received any help more than three weeks after they were hit by rainstorms. A former Deputy Information Minister, James Agyenim Boateng who briefed the media at the Tamale Airport said, Mr. Amissah-Arthur will carry out a firsthand assessment of the disasters. Mr. Agyenim Boateng said the Vice-President will solidarise with the victims in the nine (9) districts, which suffered sustained waves of violent winds. The Vice President will also visit Nakpanduri where at least three people were killed in clashes between Bimobas and Konkombas over a parcel of land. Mr. Amissah-Arthur is also accompanied by outgoing Northern regional Minister, Moses Mabengba.
