The Northern Regional Minister, Salifu Saeed, supervised the distribution exercise, and appealed to philanthropists for support.

He asked residents of the Tampulima community to volunteer information to the police to smoke out trouble makers.

Salifu Saeed also raised alarm over the proliferation of unlicensed weapons in the North Gonja District, and asked the owners to surrender themselves to the police.

The Northern Regional NADMO Coordinator, Alhaji Abdullah Hindu, cautioned the district NADMO secretariat against diversion of the relief items for personal gains.

According to him, the regional secretariat is short of stock, and urged the victims to make do with the items, whilst waiting for support from the national NADMO headquarters.
