Residents of Bath Settlement, West Coast Berbice, whose houses were damaged by a storm on Monday afternoon, have received assistance for rebuilding from the Regional Democratic Council (RDC).
Prime Minister Moses Nagamootoo, Regional Executive Officer of Region Five Ovid Morrison and several other officials visited the affected residents yesterday morning.
Nagamootoo told the media that some residents had already started their reconstruction with materials that were not severely damaged. “The region has made some commitments and they are talking with some carpenters and contractors to render voluntary assistance,” he noted, before saying that private sector organisations are also being mobilised to donate material, such as zinc sheets.
