Also, during the visit,;the Minister announced that there are ongoing plans to relieve residents of Accra West the burden of an acute water shortage. However,;she revealed that they are currently facing some challenges in that regard.

“At the dam site,;Yes! It’s an ongoing challenge. We have tried to secure the land by growing trees. They should leave at least 100-meter buffer for at least river bodies and lakes that we take our source of water from. And we will insist on that and then water will be flowing.”

She further commended the technical team undertaking the ongoing project saying “they have done a good job.”

Maintenance works 80% complete

Also speaking during the visit,;Chief Manager of production at the Weija Water Plant,;Francis Amoah, who is in charge of the ongoing maintenance works also reiterated the ministers point stating that the residents will get water soon.

He also assured the affected residents that the ongoing works on the various projects to fix the water situation will see completion sooner than expected.

Explaining the reason for the shutdown,;he stated that:

“We had to shut down to enable us fix some valves which are faulty and also to replace a panel for the new intake. We are as well suppose to put in some new meters for production. Then also, some works at Kokroko area around where the river is crossing for underwater welding.”

Mr. Amoah further disclosed that, so far, his team has been able to finish about 80 percent of the job which started from the Awoshie area where the team fixed new valves completely and covered the pipes.

“Now we have the intake where we have also fixed some hydraulic jumpers and some water panels. We are also trying to put the control works together so that we also finish the works at the intake as well.”

GWCL on water supply cut

This development follows the Ghana Water Company’s (GWCL) announcement to cut water supply to undertake some maintenance works.  

The GWCL disclosed that the period would also be used to address leakages within the supply area, causing the water company to lose several volumes of water daily and, consequently, have a serious impact on the volumes available for consumption.
