General News of Monday, 12 January 2026Source: www.ghanaweb.comThe inadequate water supply to the Teshie-Nungua enclave of Accra in the Greater Accra Region has become worse as the Teshie-Nungua Desalination Plant remains shut down over unpaid debts. The places hardest hit by the water shortage include Teshie, Nungua, Baatsona, Spintex, Sakumono, La and surrounding areas. In October 2025, the Teshie-Nungua Desalination Plant, which converted seawater to potable drinking water and supplied it mainly to these areas, was shut down by the Ghana Water Company (GWL). But several months down the line, on January 8, 2026, the GWL had to release a water rationing schedule as the water crisis worsened following agitations from residents. Whatever the case maybe, calls have intensified for a quick solution to the water shortages in these areas notwithstanding the schedule for water rationing.
