THE Member of Parliament (MP) for Tano South in the Brong Ahafo Region, Mr Andrew Adjei-Yeboah, has presented 20 wheelchairs to members of the Ghana Disabled Association in the area.
The chairs were donated to the MP, who is also a Deputy Minister of Lands, Forestry and Mines, by the Tema Rotary Club.
Presenting the items, Mr Adjei-Yeboah urged the beneficiaries not to consider themselves as outcasts but strive to develop their innate potential to enable them to cater for themselves and their families.
He pledged to assist them to acquire employable skills, and therefore implored them to seize the opportunity to be self-employed.
The chairman of the Tano South branch of the Disabled Society of Ghana, Mr J.K. Nkrumah, who received the items thanked the MP and the Tema Rotary Club for the gesture.
