Government has extended the Coronavirus-induced free water supply to the end of the year.

This was contained in a statement from the Ministry of Sanitation and Water Resources dated Wednesday, September 23, 2020.

“The general public is hereby informed that H.E. the President of Republic of Ghana, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has extended the policy on free water for all Ghanaians for another three months from October 1, 2020, to December 31, 2020.”

Government however, appealed to Ghanaians to use water judiciously.

“The Ministry appeals to consumers to use water judiciously in the observance of the protocols.”
