The office of the Prime minister, on Thursday January 16, 2025 donated relief items that includes 20,000 kilograms of Posho, and 10,000 Kilograms of beans to the severely affected community of Abanga Sub-County, Zombo district.
The relief items are part of the government’s effort to alleviate the month-long suffering of the victims from 1,355 households from the two Parishes of Pakadha and Serr, hard-hit by the unprecedented devastating hailstorm and pounding rain in July last year.
The July 8, 2024 driving afternoon rain decimated crops such as beans, coffee, maize, cassava, and matooke, along with kitchen garden plants, plunging the rural farmers into a state of distress with the looming threat of famine.
