The NADMO Director and his team warns that throwing rubbish into gutters blocks water flow. When it rains, this blockage forces water to flood homes and puts lives at risk. They advise communities to organize communal labor to clear blockages and desilt drains. This removes sand and trash before heavy downpours. NADMO warns citizens and businesses to stop building shops or homes directly on waterways or in drainage paths. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
