Mr. Wilson Agbanyo, the Kadjebi District Chief Executive (DCE), presenting the items said he was terrified by the disaster when informed and being a responsive leader, he quickly summoned a District Security Committee (DISEC) meeting to deliberate on the issue.

He indicated that the items presented were meant to relieve them from their present predicament as the Assembly could not bear all the cost of damage and urged them to contribute towards the re-roofing of their structures.

The DCE appealed to non-governmental organizations and philanthropists to assist relieve the victims from their current situation and also appealed to them to honour their tax obligations, so that the Assembly could generate enough Internally Generated Fund (IGF) to develop the district.

Dasebre Oduro-Guranim I, the Paramount Chief of Dodo-Traditional area, who received the items on behalf of the victims, thanked the donors for the gesture and also called on those whose buildings had been marked by the National Disaster Management Organization (NADMO) officials as uninhabitable to vacate and demolished them.
