Mr. Emmanuel Akpabli, the Chairman of the Amputee league clubs Association has stated that the government of Ghana has not made any effort to get in touch with them to offer any form of help.
He sounded pitiful and requested that the Gender Ministry and the National Council for Persons with Disability come to their aid sooner than later.
He stressed that these institutions should look in their direction so that they would also benefit from the share of the national assistance.
Information available to OpenLife, sourced from George Nii Armah Teiko, revealed that there are about 280 amputee players in camp who are being catered for.
The Chairman of the Amputee league clubs Association has been disturbed about this development. He urges the Government and Corporate Ghana to come to their rescue in this worrisome times of Covid 19.
“Persons with Disability are suffering more because my strength as I used to help is not as it used to be anymore.
“Hence, I cannot extend any form of assistance as the Chairman to the management of GHALCA.
“We are therefore calling on the Government, Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection and Corporate bodies to come to our aid.”
