Let Love Lead NGO has extended humanitarian support to victims affected by the recent floods in Accra while renewing its call for greater community action to prevent the devastating impact of flooding in the capital.
On July 5 2026, a team from the non-governmental organisation embarked on a post-flood assessment mission to evaluate the extent of destruction caused by the heavy rains that affected several communities across Accra.
The team visited Tesano, Alajo, Abofu and Alogbloshien (Achimota), where they interacted with residents and assessed the damage to homes, businesses, and livelihoods.
As part of the visit, the organisation met with two young mothers who tragically lost their little children during the floods. In a show of compassion and solidarity, Let Love Lead NGO presented the bereaved families with cash donations, food items, water, and other essential relief supplies to support them during their difficult time.
The team also visited flood-affected communities alongside the Member of Parliament for Ayawaso Central, Hon. Abdul Rauf Tongym Tubazu, who commended the organisation for its timely intervention and expressed appreciation for the support extended to victims.
Speaking during the outreach, the Founder of Let Love Lead NGO, Dawood Akwesi Agyemang (Nene Lartey Osakonor I), popularly known as Big Dawood, expressed sympathy to affected families and encouraged them to remain hopeful despite their loss.
“Our hearts go out to every family that has been affected by this unfortunate disaster. While no amount of support can replace the lives that have been lost, we want the victims to know that they are not alone. We stand with them, and we remain committed to supporting them throughout this difficult period,” he said.
Mr Agyemang also used the opportunity to advocate for proactive measures to reduce the recurring impact of flooding in Ghana. He called on residents, institutions, and local authorities to prioritise environmental sanitation by keeping drains and waterways free from refuse.
“Many of these disasters can be prevented if we all play our part. We must stop dumping waste into drains and waterways, and communities must work together to keep our environment clean. Preventive action remains our strongest defence against the devastating effects of flooding and climate change,” he stressed.
He further pledged that Let Love Lead NGO would continue mobilising resources to support flood victims across Accra and other affected communities while strengthening its advocacy for environmental responsibility.
“This is only the beginning. We will continue to mobilise resources and work with partners to reach more victims while promoting practical solutions that will help prevent future tragedies,” he added.
The latest intervention builds on Let Love Lead NGO’s growing commitment to environmental sustainability and disaster prevention. Over the past four years, the organisation has organised annual sanitation drives across several communities in Accra, including Spintex, Kwame Nkrumah Circle, and, most recently, the large-scale clean-up exercise covering the drainage channel from Nima-Mamobi to the Paloma Hotel area.
Through these initiatives, Let Love Lead NGO continues to champion cleaner communities, climate resilience, and civic responsibility, believing that sustainable environmental practices are essential to protecting lives and building safer communities across Ghana.
