Martey Says No Timeline Yet for Ending Water Rationing in Katamanso, Tema and Ashaiman

Stanley Martey, Chief Manager at Ghana Water Ltd, has said the utility cannot provide a definite timeline for ending water rationing in Kpone-Katamanso, Tema and Ashaiman, leaving residents uncertain about when normal supply will resume.

Speaking in comments highlighted by StarrFM, Martey said the company was unable to commit to a specific date for restoring regular water supply to the affected communities.

The situation continues to pose difficulties for households and businesses across the three areas, where residents have faced interruptions to their water supply. The rationing has affected daily activities, disrupted business operations and forced some people to seek alternative sources of water, often at additional cost.

Martey’s latest remarks follow an earlier warning that Ghana Water Ltd could not guarantee it would be able to meet the gap between national water demand and available supply. His comments have raised further concerns about the scale of the challenges confronting the utility and the uncertainty surrounding efforts to improve supply.

Addressing the situation will likely require measures to increase water production, expand distribution infrastructure and reduce losses within the supply network. However, the utility has not provided a clear timeframe for when residents in Kpone-Katamanso, Tema and Ashaiman can expect sustained improvements.

The lack of a definite schedule is a concern for residents and businesses that depend on a reliable water supply for their daily needs. Continued rationing could place additional pressure on households and small enterprises, particularly those unable to afford alternative sources.

The development is likely to intensify calls for Ghana Water Ltd and the government to communicate more clearly about the measures being taken to address the shortage. Residents will be looking for details of ongoing projects, plans to improve supply and realistic expectations about when conditions may improve.

For now, Martey’s statement leaves communities in the affected areas without a confirmed date for the end of rationing as Ghana Water Ltd continues to grapple with the supply challenges.
