The coordinator is currently at the site assessing things for himself in order to put things together to know what NADMO needs to do immediately to have some reliefs sent to the people,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n Residents flee Fuveme<\/strong><\/p>\n Residents at Fuveme in the Keta Municipality were compelled to flee from their homes<\/strong><\/a><\/span> following the tidal waves.<\/p>\n The waves, which started displacing residents in the late hours of Sunday, is also said to have carried away livestock and\u00a0other belongings of residents.<\/p>\n –<\/p>\n![\"20160424101438\"](\"http:\/\/citifmonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/20160424101438.jpg\")
