West Africa – It’s raining (hard) again

Many of our colleagues in Budd’s West African offices report that the rainy season has hit hard this year, resulting in:

  • stoppages in cargo operations
  • power and telecommunications failures
  • severe flooding.

The wet season usually occurs between May and October in the following West African countries:

  • Benin
  • Burkina Faso
  • Cape Verde (rains can be more erratic here)
  • Cameroon
  • The Gambia
  • Ghana
  • Guinea
  • Guinea-Bissau
  • Ivory Coast
  • Liberia
  • Mali (southern regions)
  • Mauritania (southern regions)
  • Niger (southern regions)
  • Nigeria
  • Senegal
  • Sierra Leone
  • Togo

The extreme meteorological conditions of recent years have weakened infrastructures and increased the impact of the wet season.

In case of need, clients should not hesitate to call our claims team on their mobiles (or via WhatsApp).  The full contact details of Budd’s staff are to be found here.
