CLARIFICATION ON THE TEMPORARY SHELTER PROVIDED FOR AN ELDERLY PERSON

The Kassena-Nankana Municipal Assembly has taken note of recent public discussions regarding the temporary shelter provided for an elderly man in need of care and protection.

The Assembly wishes to clarify that:
1. St. Mary’s Empowering the Least Organisation (SMETLOSANG) is a development partner of the Assembly and has supported the Municipality in various ways.

2.The elderly man has been identified as a vulnerable person who has been staying in a public space for some time, exposing him to the elements and other risks.

3. SMETLOSANG, in collaboration with the Municipal Social Welfare and Community Development Department, initiated the intervention to provide him with care and protection.

4. As an interim measure, a temporary structure was provided to shield him from the sun and rain. The structure was solely funded by SMETLOSANG, while the Assembly executed the physical works.

5. The Department of Social Welfare and Community Development is also putting measures in place to conduct the necessary background checks and assessment to establish his family and social circumstances and determine appropriate long-term intervention.

The Assembly reiterates its commitment to working with development partners and relevant stakeholders to protect the dignity, welfare and wellbeing of vulnerable persons within the Municipality.

Thank you.
