The Teshie Desalination Plant has been out of operation for the past couple of weeks as a result of some technical\u00a0challenges.<\/p>\n
Due to the shutdown, the Ghana Water Company Limited (GWCL) is now rationing water to the people of Teshie and Nungua.<\/p>\n
[contextly_sidebar id=”EGI5MtJ1PihRl2F2EzZ7OTrtZqZDlfJU”]The Public Relations Officer of GWCL, Stanley Martey, who confirmed the developments to Citi News,\u00a0<\/strong>noted that water is now being supplied on Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays from Kpone.<\/p>\n \u201cWe have a few challenges with the plant. We are trying to resolve it. But what we are doing now is to supply water to Teshie and Nungua from the Tema area, so we supply them three times a week to ameliorate the situation. \u00a0Currently, there is water in Teshie, but it isn’t flowing 24-7 as hitherto it was.\u201d<\/p>\n Despite the rationing, Mr. Martey said the situation was “manageable” but stopped short of giving any details on when the\u00a0issues with the\u00a0plant will be resolved.<\/p>\n “I wouldn\u2019t be able to give a definite date, but within the very near future, the situation will be solved,\u201d Mr. Martey said.<\/p>\n
