Bah Oury denounces anarchic construction in risk areas
Emergency services dispatched to the scene are working tirelessly to find survivors. According to a provisional report released by the government this Thursday morning, there are now 15 dead and around ten injured. The latter have been transferred to Coyah hospital for treatment.
The State expressed its deep compassion and solidarity with the families of the victims. Visiting the scene of the tragedy this Thursday morning, Prime Minister Bah Oury denounced the uncontrolled construction in high-risk areas, particularly at the foot of mountains and old riverbeds.
"Building where water flows, building below mountainside, is a matter of responsibility for oneself and one's family. The public authorities will now take all measures to determine buildable areas throughout the country," he issued as a warning.

Un phénomène purement naturel donc ma compassion envers nos très chers Guineens.
"... Les pouvoirs publics prendront désormais toutes les mesures pour déterminer les zones constructibles sur l’ensemble du pays », a-t-il lâché comme un avertissement.
Apparemment du 'médecin après la mort', par ce que c'est un travail que l'état aurait dû faire depuis très longtemps et maintenant veiller au respect des conclusions.
