The MP for WA east constituency Hon. Dr. Siedu Jasaw has donated a wheel chair and a sewing machine to assist her in her works. This is in direct response to an earlier story we carried about Ernestina Dari.

It should be recalled that, Ernestina Dari did four years in school, but owing to her mobility disability and related health conditions she could not continue her education. Like many schools in underserved communities in rural Ghana, special education is not available to many pupils with exceptional needs.

She is willing and has stated to learn a skill from a seamstress in a nearby community. Her current challenge is how to literally crawl some kilometers on day to day basis learning dressmaking,

The MP of the constituency over the week end presented to the wheel chair together with a brand new butterfly sewing machine to Ernestina at Hanbagnikole after a short encounter with her and family members.

He was hopeful that his widows might, will go a long way to assist her in her day to day movements and above all to be able to journey to her learning centre.

Smiles filled the faces of not only Ernestina, but also the entire Hanbagnikole community for benevolent act by the Member of Parliament of the area.
