A 43-year-old physically challenged man,identified as Philimon Quashie, has received a brand new wheelchair from a former New Patriotic Party(NPP) Chairman for Afigys Kwabre South constituency in the Ashanti region, Odeneho Kwaku Appiah(COKA).
In the early hours of September 6, a team comprising the Offinso South NPP constituency Chairman, Salathiel Kwaku Takyi, and the Assembly member for the Abofuo Electoral area, Hon Sarfo visited the home of Quashie to deliver a wheelchair and an undisclosed amount of money.
