Yesterday, 47 mothers and babies heaved a sigh of relief when their medical bills which amounted to GHC100,000 were paid to enable them to go home after their discharge.

The joy and happiness on their faces were palpable enough to indicate the value of the gesture they received from the philanthropist whose generosity guaranteed their freedom.

This philanthropist is no other than the General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party, Mr. Justin Kodua-Frimpong. It was his 41st birthday and in accordance with his personal practice of celebrating his birthdays in orphanages or hospitals, he decided to come to the aid of nursing mothers and sick children in the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital.

Some of the nursing mothers could not but shed tears of joy for the unexpected donation of Mr. Justin Kodua-Frimpong that relieved them of their major financial burdens. They thanked him for his kind gesture and prayed for God to bless him.

The beneficiaries were mainly from the Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department, NICU, PICU, Surgical, and Orthopaedics & Accident Departments. https://i.imgur.com/X9qjaIB.jpg
Mr. Justin Kodua-Frimpong also donated items which included BP monitors, wipes, diapers, baby food, toilet rolls, washing powders, and assorted soft drinks.

The Head of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department, Rev. Dr. Isaac Koranteng who represented the Chief Executive of Korle Bu Teaching Hospital thanked Mr. Kodua-Frimpong on behalf of the management, staff, and patients for the donation. https://i.imgur.com/MU9PoRy.jpg
He urged other individuals and corporate organizations to emulate the gesture of the General Secretary and help refurbish the Maternity Block to enhance health care delivery. https://i.imgur.com/aVt1xQX.jpg
