Nkosuohene of Nankese-Abesim fulfils pledge to community
The President of MOTEC LIFE-UK, Dr Paul Ofori-Atta, has presented varied items to selected school children and residents of the Nankese-Abesim community in the Suhum Constituency in the Eastern Region.
The items include blankets, sewing machines, curtains, school jerseys and others.
The gesture was in fulfilment of a pledge he made to empower women in the community with skills and resources to enhance their economic well-being.
Dr Ofori-Atta, who is the Nkosuohene of the area, emphasised the importance of establishing a vocational centre to facilitate training in sewing and other vocations.
He urged the community members to put Ghana first in all they do and desist from activities that would result in chaos as Ghana heads to the polls today.
He urged the community members to maintain and use the machines for its intended purpose.
The Chief of Nankese-Abesim, Nene Barfour Adjanor IV, praised Dr Ofori-Atta’s commitment to the community’s development, noting that the donation will reduce teenage pregnancy and secure the future of young girls.
He pledged to put up a structure to accommodate the trainers and also engage his sub chiefs to monitor the progress of the course.
He congratulated the school for their success in the BECE and attributed the success to the 6-unit classroom block that Dr Ofori -Atta built for the community.
“I am very grateful to Dr Ofori-Atta for this wonderful donation,” said Beatrice Koko Sika, one of the beneficiaries, and added that the sewing machine will help her to earn a living to support her family.”
