Almost four weeks after the Akosombo dam spillage, some affected victims are still struggling to access basic amenities at the places to which they have been relocated.
Including women and children, they sleep in classrooms without windows; they have no mattresses or blankets; no place of convenience, while they could no longer bath with the Aklafu stream because it is contaminated and causes body itching.
