VIDEO: Watch the only community toilet carried away by floods
Several parts of the country have in recent weeks experienced heavy rainfall, resulting in flooding that has displaced hundreds of residents and destroyed property.
A similar situation has been recorded at Achimfo near Enchi in the Aowin Municipality of the Western North Region, where a rather unusual incident has left residents with mixed reactions and what many say could be remembered for years.
The only public toilet facility in the community was seen floating on floodwaters after a heavy downpour that also destroyed several structures in the area.
According to residents, the facility’s wall collapsed as a result of the torrential rains, while parts of the roof and wooden structures used for reinforcement were swept away by the floodwaters.
Eyewitnesses were heard calling for help as some residents attempted to salvage parts of the structure from being carried away by the rising waters.
