News Night with Kenneth Gyasi and Gemma Appiah on Joy 99.7 FM brings you comprehensive coverage of Ghana's biggest stories tonight.
The Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) is urging Ghanaians not to consume food contaminated by floodwaters, warning of serious health risks in the aftermath of the recent flooding. We speak to the FDA on the dangers and precautions residents must take.
Three days after devastating floods hit parts of Alajo, heaps of flood-soaked refuse and stagnant water continue to choke drains, with residents warning that a public health crisis may be unfolding as waste remains uncleared.
Meanwhile, NADMO says Monday's floods have stretched its response capacity to the limit, leaving many affected families without food, clean water and other essential supplies. The agency is appealing to individuals and organizations to support relief efforts.
Also tonight, illegal miners have returned to the banks of the Tano River in Samreboi despite the destruction caused by recent floods, raising fresh concerns over environmental degradation.
Plus, a diplomatic disagreement is emerging between Ghana and South Africa following the killing of a Ghanaian in Cape Town, after South African authorities described Ghana's account of the incident as “factually inaccurate.”
And in sports, Africa's historic FIFA World Cup campaign is overshadowed by painful late collapses in the knockout stages. We also go live to the USA for the latest from the Black Stars camp.
